Ethnic Ornament

This time I am going to share a pattern that is totally different from all other patterns ever published on this blog.

Recently I was asked to recreate an ethnic ornament from an old picture. It was not created by me but somebody else and maybe decades or centuries ago. Well, the task was not easy due to low quality of the picture but the result is very nice.

Happy Easter!

Five years ago I published a cross-stitch pattern Easter Owl. And recently I was asked to publish the same pattern without the owl.

Well, this way the pattern became much smaller and easier to realize. Besides, you can omit all back stitches, I’ve used to outline the letters. Thus you’ll get pretty small and simple pattern.

Elephant the Painter

Here is another cute cross-stitch pattern 100% free for download. The links are provided at the end of the post. Please pay attention that “Elephant the Painter” is not aimed at beginners due to a large number of colors and shades engaged.

There were 32 colors used and 6 blended entries. If you don’t know what a blended color is, please follow the link to get more info: Daniel Tiger.

Kitchen Series: Beautiful Boletus Mushrooms

The pattern I am going to share today was created for Jill. Beautiful Boletus Mushrooms is a bit out of subject here, as far as everyone is preparing to celebrate Christmas and New Year. But I am sure it won’t be passed over.

The pattern Beautiful Boletus Mushrooms is very small – only 45 x 48 stitches but I’ve used more than 20 colors to create it.

Vintage Christmas Patterns

These small Vintage Christmas Patterns were created for Megan. All of them do not exceed 50 x 50 stitches but are aimed at experienced stitchers as there are some broken stitches present. Besides, I’ve used lots of back-stitches there and all of them of different colors! Well, it was a joke.

X-Mas Present

Why children are always waiting for Christmas to come? Waiting for those delicious home-made pastries? Maybe just willing to decorate a Christmas tree? Or they like outdoor activities and possibility to spend much time with their parents? Well, I think the most emotional is … unwrapping Christmas presents. That is why the pattern I’m going to share today is called “X-Mas Present”

Old-Fashioned Christmas Greeting

Today another pattern to wish everybody a very Merry Christmas! The pattern “Old-Fashioned Christmas Greeting” is quite large; I’ve used lots of colors and shades, and back stitches. So, you are to have some experience to be able to stitch it.

Please, pay attention that color DMC 898 coffee brown - very dark is used to outline the papyrus only. The reindeer is outlined with DMC 310 black.
