I made this purchase on my phone, so I didn't notice that some of the thread was metallic. It's even lovelier in person! It's very lightweight and festive, living up to its name of Alegria. One of my most favorite Novica purchases!
The lovely St. Benedict Medal hangs near a charming Bavarian Cuckoo Clock which sings out melodies on the hour sometimes interfering with my rendition of “Blue Monk” on my nearby Yamaha Piano.
