We don't often hear the word, "Hark" anymore. Yet, when we do, we know exactly what it means. In fact, the word brings to mind an entire story, the birth of a baby who would change our lives in so many ways.

We think of angels and bright stars and visitor from afar, of simple shepherds and the promise of Heaven on earth.

From all of us to all of you, Merry Christmas!

I embroidered the "Hark Christmas Ornament" on 14-count Aida with DMC 6-strand cotton floss, accented it with gold Kreinik Metallic floss. The front and back are stitched on two separate squares, then connected with half stitches. The ornament is padded, then finished off with a gold ribbon hanger and surrounding fringe.
