Gingerbread lane - Santa House
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery
Santa house is the last of the three houses on Gingerbread lane. You can stitch it on its own, combine it with the house with the Ice Skating Rink, next door on the lane, or stitch all 3, in which case it's better to purchase the complete set.
A Gingerbread man and a young girl are busy making a snowman. The picture is full of cute and fun detail such as Santa falling stuck head-first in a chimney.
The palette of embroidery thread colors is a beautiful mix of turquoise, red and gingerbread tones. There are pearlescent white highlights featuring the icing on the gingerbread houses. Overdyed threads from the Weeks Dyed Works range are used for certain tones. They can however be substituted with DMC if you wish, although the result will be slightly different. The fabric used for stitching this piece is an overdyed linen with woven filaments that add some glitz to the background.
