DMC is a classic household name for threads, yarns, kits, canvas and pretty much everything else related with embroidery and enrichment of the family home with linen and decorations.
I am briefly reviewing a DMC CHRISTMAS TABLE RUNNER WITH 14 COUNT AIDA BAND prior to engaging in my planned project for next month .
The table runner is of very good quality , stern and resistant to appliques, stubborn embroidery stitchery , normal cross stitch and does not tear under pressure of pointy needles during assembly of basic stitches to crochet edges.
As you can see by the pictures below the linen does not show any stitches engaged during the joining of the fabrics so I am assuming is pressed , what is really a plus to the product itself.
Most importantly, DMC now has removed the price , usual £3 per design, and is offering free download for dozens of motifs, especially Christmas motifs. Borders from countries like Romania, France and complete Greek and Turkish embroidery tiles not to mention dozens of beautiful borders , dozens of free cushion cover motifs and dozens of motifs for children, teenagers and especial occasions like marriages and Christenings.
Wishing I had time for more , I downloaded these quick embroidery design for my DMC table runner,
This is a wonderful place to download designs as is virus free, contrary to some pictures I downloaded via Pin Interest and the pictures are of different sizes for different projects like cushions. I am in love with DMC and would not like to be anywhere else for the next couple of hours.
If you are a stitcher you most likely already know the site but if you are new don't waste the opportunity to try something new .
DMC Amazon shop is not so well equipped as the official DMC
and definitely does not have any freebies.
What you make of my project to be - hopefully soon to be ! - , Christmas table runner? I got the measurements right and the fabric is now stretching for a few weeks , well rolled and wrapped in vegetable paper. Wish me luck as will be a very speedy project of two DMC Rocking Around the Christmas Tree at the edge of each end. IF time allows I will crochet the edge with a nice border !
Until next time,
Best wishes,
Ariane
