Handmade
Christmas ornaments make wonderful gifts for family and friends; they are also
popular for charity sales, or raffles (lotteries).
The perfect
way to use up leftover threads and aida/linens, ornaments are easy to
adapt to your stash since you need only small amounts of supplies to create them.
Since 2008
I’ve been designing a small seasonal ornament or motif for Roland-designs, the
patterns are varied and include everything from cross stitch to tatting,
hemstitch, petit point, Hardanger, beads and more. I try to come up with original
ideas, all the while keeping it relatively simple enough so you can be finished
in a couple of evening at the most.
I’m always
thrilled to see photos of your embroidery so be sure to send me an email or use
the #rolanddesigns tag when showing your work on social media.
The
patterns are available as instant download PDF files on the website: Free Christmas patterns
