Christmas time! There’s nothing like a good holly bush with berries to get the juices rolling! This photo I took over 20 years ago, but it still warms my heart. We haven’t had snow yet in Mechanicsville, but I’m already looking forward to it.

You’ll want to be careful about what fabric this goes on, due to the mix of lights and darks, but you could come with some fun combinations!

For each of these thread schemes, or palettes, , I’ll include both an image showing how it was built (to the left), and a thread color schemes, with actual thread numbers, that you can print out. Feel free to save these cards, because you never know when you’ll need them.

Keep your eye out for more color schemes coming in the Simply Color series!

Have you learned more about color harmonies that I cover? Take a look into them, and let me know what you think!!! You’ll never run out of thread palettes again!!!

What part of color inspires you?

Happy stitchin’!
