Cross-stitch design “Traditional Toy Train”
depicts a toy from the top
of the Christmas wish list years ago,
and it still reminds us of the Holidays today.
The toy train in primary colors of red, blue, and yellow,
is spewing smoke that we can remember
from those smoke pellets for model trains.
The smoke stack and cow catcher are ‘must haves’.

The image is on a pre-finished oval
ready to be finished to be decorative on both sides
(with detailed finishing instructions provided)
and hung as a decoration after a ribbon
is laced through the lace edge of the medallion.
The ribbon provides a unique accent to the motif.

While the design may be stitched
onto the pre-finished oval and used as an ornament,
it may also be stitched onto a small piece of fabric,
or by using waste canvas,
it can be applied to fabric or apparel.
