Advent Calendar 2023 – Nativity Scene
The Star of Bethlehem

The star is outlined with slanting, wide Stem stitches (coton à broder No. 16).
(Find further information about Stem stitch variations in my book Early Schwalm Whitework)

The tail remains unworked inside, the surface of the star is filled with Cross stitches (coton à broder No. 25) over three fabric threads each. There is no thread withdrawing.
