Changing Mounts

 

Notice Santa has changed mounts? What happened to the reindeer? Maybe they had an indigestion of birch bark and moss? Or a little nightcap too much?

Anyway Santa cannot be caught late. He's speeding along on a white hare, hopping over sleepy villages in the snowy landscape. A Christmas pattern by Barbara Ana Designs.

The story of the Christmas Tree

 

Evergreens have been celebrated around the winter solstice long before the advent of Christianity. By 16th century the tradition of decorating a Tannenbaum with candles for Christmas was already established in Germany.

When young Queen Victoria & her consort Albert, where pictured in their palace around a Christmas tree with their children, the tradition became instantly popular, spreading through the British isles and around the world. This wonderful design by Riverdrift House celebrates the British royals around their first Christmas tree.

O Christmas Tree

 

Designer Samantha Purdy has this special talent of capturing, in the most simple ways, the essential joys of life, such as gathering with friends on a dark winter night and singing carols in front of a Christmas tree. 

We also love the oval loop used for framing, a brilliant idea perfectly suited for this design.

Scarlet Christmas

 

In this sweet Christmas pattern the focus is on the color red, used even for the holly and berry border surrounding the design.  This produces a delicate harmony with just a little touch of pink, purple and white used for the central motif. A cross stitch pattern by Perrette Samouiloff.

Crowded Housing

 

We couldn't do justice to this pattern without showing some of its wonderful fun detail. The house is so crowded, Santa has moved to the attic. The house is buzzing like a beehive and the sleigh loaded and ready to go. Hurry Santa or you'll be late this year! A design by Tiny Modernist.

Winter visitors

 

In Northern America, red cardinals, especially the male with it's striking red feathers, are among the most beloved birds. Cheryl, Tiny Modernist's designer, pays tribute to the red cardinal on a biscornu shape, showing it perched on snow covered branches decorated with Christmas ball ornaments.

In England and most of Europe, Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without spotting a red robin, their bright orange chest catching our eye in the barren gardens as they get closer to our homes looking for food. Here is a wonderful round shaped design, where designer Lesley Teare blends two counted needlework techniques, cross stitch and blackwork, as well as seed beads, in a work of outstanding beauty.

Embedded Jewels

 

Love Beads? Love cross stitch? Here's an opportunity to combine both in an extraordinary piece of work where sew-on emerald, ruby and topaz-like stones are combined into the stitching. Some are actually embedded, forming the main motif of the baubles, others are actually pendants. Color shading and the dimensional effect of the beads are a pure wonder. A Shannon Christine Design.
