A semi-transparent border frame
In this very interesting piece, designer Faby Reilly shows a "frame within a frame", where the central part is featured in the actual colors, and the outer parts appear as if they were hidden behind a semi-transparent layer. This double effect puts the focus on the central part - a friendly conversation between a snowman and a red robin near a park bench - with the outer elements of the picture, evergreen bush and tree branches, fading away. The blue and silver frame, worked in rice stitch, acts as a border between the two parts.

Winter in the British countryside, by Lesley Teare
Here is a beautiful cross stitch sampler featuring a typical Georgian House in winter, with red robins scavenging for food in the potted plants and deers romaing in the park. With the final Winter sampler, this seasonal series by Lesley Teare Designs is now complete.

Ukrainian Winter
It is not without a certain emotion that we received Kateryna's latest pattern, knowing what she is going through, living in an area that is regularly shelled with only intermittent electricity.
This is such a sweet pattern, with log-cabins huddled together and animals gathering to pay tribute to this young woman, oblivious to the cold, in a gown and head-dress fit for a queen.

Ice skating on a starry night
Days turn shorter and shorter but that's no reason not to go out and have fun. Like meeting one's sister at the ice rink. The sky is clear and it's chilly. See their cold breath in the air as they slide along. Samantha Purdy captures the simple joys of life, in cross stitch.

Woodland Animals in Winter
It looks like it will continue to snow overnight ....
What a treat to cross stitch Samantha Purdy's patterns, with a streamlined, contemporary look, yet full of evocative details, where just two small window panes already half covered in snow can suggest so much.
We love the fhe final touch too, with a band of vintage trimming to evoke the thick layer of fallen snow.

January Flowers
Designer Faby Reilly will accompany us year-round with a flower for each month of the year. Faby's patterns are exquisitely designed in intricate detail, yet do not include any fractional stitches. Quite a feat given the amount of detail. The January flower is a snowdrop.

Ice and Snow ornaments
Inspired by snowflakes and the pretty ice patterns on a frozen window, Faby Reilly's 'Let it Snow' ornaments shine with a thousand reflections. Each side of this cube is embellished with a different pattern mixing silver threads, seed beads and sequins on a cross stitch base.

Navy and polka dots
Designed by Faby Reilly, the common thread of these festive cross stitch patterns is the navy pattern with white polka dots that can be found everywhere, in the shape of ribbon, scarf and even fabric embellishing the foot of the tree. The dark navy makes a nice contrast with the soft frosty and green tones used for cross stitching.
