From The Inside Flap:

The warmth and hospitality of the holiday season are reflected in each of these designs, from the winsome stuffed wreath decorated with rosy-cheeked Santas to the festive Wheatstalks and Bows tablecloth for entertaining. The pretty tree ornaments can be made quickly - they-re perfect for last minute gifts - and the springly samplers will be cherished for years to come. Every one of the projects in this book uses the traditional counted cross-stitch technique. You need to learn only two basic embroidery stitches to make any project in the book, and you'll be surprised at how quickly you'll progress from simple projects like the subtle gold-on-blue Nativity scene and the cozy Old-Fashioned Christmas Kitchen sampler to the finely detailed Twelve Days Of Christmas picture. The introductory section provides all the information you need to select cloth and thread, stitch your work with ease, and finish or frame the completed project. The stitch charts provided for each project are clear and easy to follow, and every project is pictured in full-colored photographs so you'll know just how the finished piece will look.
