Snowflake. Blackwork. But blue.

I was thinking: how long since I have drawn (and stitched) a blackwork pattern.
And this little thing was born.

Of course, it is not black. I imagined it in blue (DMC 3838) with tiny, lighter blue beads (like DMC 3747). Or you can use French knots / colonial knots instead.

Stitched on some sparkly Aida... what do you think? Anyone willing to test it? :D :D

Happy Christmas/New Year stitching.

New Year Resolutions - Part 2

Here is the second part of my free chart "New Year Resolutions". I hope you like it.

The shaded area is the overlaping part between the two sections. I also post a picture of the whole, just in case.

New Year Resolutions

Here is the free pattern about my New Year Resolutions. At least, the first part ;) With snowflakes - because here in Sweden we are really missing snow now (although I have to admit I do enjoy the sunshine).

Second part coming soon, I promise :D :D

Happy new year

If you are over the Christmas frenzy, perhaps even got yourself some new stitching stash in the sales, it is time to make a "Happy New Year" ornament or card.

I made two versions, one with a bird and a flower in one pattern, and another for a two-sided ornament. It is also in three languages, English, Hungarian and Swedish.

The colours are:

DMC 333 blue violet very dark and
DMC 156 Blue violet middle light

Hope you like the pattern :)

Christmas tree alphabet number 2 - a smaller one

I have another, smaller alphabet this time. You can stitch a few words or a name with them, or they would make lovely minis for gift tags with your loved ones initials.

I would again recommend using variegated thread with them.

Here is the back - I only managed to fit in Merry Christmas in Swedish, the others were too long. :) But you can use the year, or just a few small flowers.

Here is one I stitched:

Hope you like them and find pleasure stitching them.
