Celtic embroidery

This is a sampling of the designs that can be embroidered on your Baby's christening outfit, all in white thread or in colors, it's entirely up to you.

First, the Celtic knot cross shown in blue with the gold sun behind and light green shamrocks beneath:

This cross is done in a Celtic knot style.  It is done by machine and is suitable for the front of the skirt. It is the most popular by far.
A slightly larger one is available in the exact style for a large statement at the front of the gown. Smaller one shown is perfect for bodice or back of hat, or indeed, anywhere!
It was digitized by Linda Rearick.  This is NOT a pattern for hand embroidery. (Some of you arrive at this page
using a search engine....sorry.)

It fits perfectly on the bodice without the shamrocks, too.

Family Crests:  YOU must supply the line drawing. I send it out to be digitized, and it'll cost you extra...whatever she charges.
