This design from Bent Creek is one that I called a car project. I only stitched when we were traveling somewhere by car. I did stitch it on the 18 Ct. linen using DMC floss rather than Pearl Cotton - the little elves have jingle bells on ther hats. Sometimes I have projects on large count linen that make a great take-a-long, They are easy to see when stitching in a car. It might take longer to complete, but you end up with a nice project when you least expect it.
