Item Details, Condition & Measurements
Fleur de Lys Tree by ScissorTail Designs is a distinctive Christmas cross stitch design featuring an elaborate ornamental tree composed of traditional fleur-de-lis motifs. Rendered in softly variegated greens with darker accents, the symmetrical design is framed by a delicate decorative border and finished with the French holiday greeting "Joyeux Noël."
Designed by Melinda Cole Billam and copyrighted in 2011, this charming miniature sampler combines French-inspired ornamentation with traditional counted cross stitch. Its understated color palette and intricate detailing make it especially appealing to stitchers who appreciate small seasonal samplers, specialty threads, and distinctive Christmas needlework.
The original model was stitched on 28-count Water Lily linen using Crescent Colours Belle Soie silk in Crème de Menthe. DMC 520 is listed as an alternative, and the designer also suggests experimenting with other variegated green threads for a personalized finish.
