Christmas Cross Stitch

Thanks so much to those of you who looked at my last post on my Christmas decorating. The SBA(super blog assistant-he loads the photos) and I bought a camera for our Christmas gift to each other.  Blogging has made me so much more interested in taking pictures.  Do any of you feel the same?  Anyway, I was practicing with the new camera and decided to show you all the Christmas cross stitch that I have up in the house.  I'm not gong to identify each one.  If you have questions, let me know and I will try to find any information you might need about a particular design.

 This ornament is very special.  Last summer I gave Chris ,over at the blog Tot Hill Farm Stitches, a chart.  I received this adorable ornament in the mail a few days ago as a thanks.  Chris, I love it!!! It is happily hanging on my tree. The rest of the photos will be just a cross stitch tour.
























Lastly, this is what we woke up to this morning.  Our first snow.   We will be leaving to head South soon. I will blog when I can but want to take this opportunity to wish, those of you who celebrate Christmas, a very Merry one.  And may the rest of you have a wonderful winter holiday break.

  5. Fabulous Christmas stitching you shared! I love your felted cardinal in your header. Where did you get him? What is the design just below the ornament from Chris? I figured out the rest except for that one!

    Merry Christmas to you and yours!

  8. Your "Evergreen" is somewhat the same colouring as mine. I used 4 DMC Colour Variations for mine. Attractive finish too! Maria S. in Ontario

    I am so glad you like the tiny ornament. He fits in well with all your other fabulous PS Santas. You have stitched some beautiful Xmas pieces.
    Safe travels.
    Thanks for the snow pic.

  16. I love them all! Do you hang them all up at Christmas time? Or just lean them against the walls? I know that's a crazy question. I am really wondering... do you just switch out pictures with the seasons? Or do you have a place where the Christmas ones stay up all year?

  19. You do such beautiful work! I noticed in one picture where you have 4 Prairie Schooler Santas. I am missing the pattern for the one with the squirrels. I have my piece 3/4's stitched & somehow lost the pattern. Any chance you could share it with me. Most appreciated.
