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.
