The design depicts my humorous take on the traditional Christmas song where I challenged myself to fit each of the twelve presents given by ‘my true love’ into a square lino cut print. This became increasingly challenging as the presents mounted up. One partridge was simple sitting in it's pear tree, two turtle doves as well, in fact all the way up to eight maids a milking which was the biggest challenge. How to fit all eight maids and their cows in? They must have their cows or they would not be milking - as you can see I came up with a genius solution!
After finishing all 12 prints I made a Christmas tea towel which has been a consistent seasonal best seller for the last few years along with my set of 12 greetings cards (one for each day) and one large card of the whole design.
