Button Up for Christmas 2 - Ornaments - Christmas Cross Stitch Pattern - PDF Download

Two adorable Christmas Ornaments in this second 'Button Up' leaflet by Cathy Jean. There is nothing like the fragrance of Cinnamon and Spices at Christmas, and this little Gingerbread man ornament is all spiced up! Cathy's whole family loves to gather round the oven as these little cookies come out filling the house with joy! I hope you enjoy this as much as they do.

The second ornament is a homespun Angel to hang from the tree. What a cute little Angel, with her wooly blonde hair done in a special new stitch, the 'Tied Stitch'. It’s easy and fun to do, and gives your homespun ornament that little touch of whimsey. A special little mother of pearl star shape ornament hangs on the branch above, to remind us of the star over Bethlehem. You can never have too many Angel ornaments on your tree! Happy Christmas from Cathy to you! Stitched with gentle overdyed cottons and many different silks in soft shades.
