Scandinavian Embroidery Stuffed Reindeer Pattern

I like to make Christmas decorations and gift all year long. These cute stuffed reindeer should keep me busy for a little bit, though the embroidery is all simple back-stitching. While they add an elegant and traditional touch to Christmas, I think they’d be cuddly-cute in natural colors or maybe bright felt scrap pieces. Added to Christmas Crafts, Needlework, and Sewing.

Christmas Wednesday – The Christmas Card Keeper

I hate to throw out the Christmas cards each year, don’t you? I appreciate all the effort from others since I usually design or make my own. So I had to share this cute idea of a Christmas Card Keeper with you. It makes a tidy, compact way to store the Christmas cards. What fun it would be to pull out these little books each year and see how kids have grown in the photos and remember old neighbors and friends! Another fun idea - save cards from a milestone birthday or anniversary! Added to Christmas Crafts and Paper Crafts

Stitch a sweet Mini Penny Christmas Tree Rug. Could be a nice take-along project since it uses fusible web and then blanket-stitched around the edges with embroidery floss. Added to Christmas Crafts and NeedleCrafts

Christmas Wednesday – Hand-Stitched Christmas Tree Advent Calendar
17
Feb

2010
Longtime readers are probably aware of my fondness for advent calendars. I do have a whole page full! So you can imagine how my heart went pitter-pat for this Christmas Tree Advent Calendar
It’s such a worthwhile addition to the collection, and to my personal collection of projects this year. The day is marked by moving the star from the first button to the last button, 25. It is hand-stitched on wool felt (so nice) and then finished on machine (so easy). Plus the tutorial includes a nice step by step with photos of mitering the borders.
