I know this is a long shot, but I’ve seen the peas work miracles before 
I’m looking for an old cross stitch pattern. I stitched it probably 20 years ago. It was fairly simple, and it said merry Christmas. The font had some swirls, like the s in Christmas swirled under the word pretty far (I think). It’s 2 lines- merry is above Christmas.
There were some holly leaves and berries, and some green stitching that swirled through the whole pattern. It was just words and holly. The words were in 3 shades of red, and I can’t remember for sure if the green was only one color or if it also had 3 colors, but I think it was just one color.
The trend where I lived was to do it on 7 count fabric so it wound up really big, and people would usually choose a fabric with some gold threads woven in. I’m not sure if the pattern called for that or if everyone just did that.
I can’t remember the publisher or artist. It wasn’t a kit. Just a leaflet. It was printed on heavy cream paper, and it was folded in half. The pattern was black and white, not color.
I’m feeling nostalgic and really want to cross stitch one of these. If anyone has this and can tell me the publisher or any info, I’d appreciate it so much. I’ve googled every combination of descriptions and searched every online store, and found some similar ones but not that particular one. Of course all the stores from that area are closed now so I can’t call and see if they still have it.
Thanks!
