10. Christmas deer
I love this design because of the sheer simplicity of it, yet the deer has a certain elegance to it. The gold thread used on this deer makes her look at the more beautiful, I haven’t seen gold thread used in any of the embroidery kits so far so this one is definitely unique.
What gives this deer even more character is the dusky pink cheeks added for more detail. Make this as a quick gift for someone special or hang it up for decoration!
11. winter ghosts
Make this embroidery design to add to your unique collection because it is definitely one to have! This is such a cool design and each character brings with them something different yet they work so well as a whole.

This has many elements of different stitches involved so you won’t get bored with one stitch at all. There are different stitches used for almost all the motifs in this picture, starting from the patterned floor, to the wreath, and the plants on the shelves. An embroiderer’s dream to show off all their skills!

From bright Christmas scenes to a more toned down one. If you aren’t one for bright colors, then this simple but charming Christmas embroidery pattern will work for you.
This scene is a cute getaway scene that we all see in the Christmas movies! Somewhere far away and up in the mountains with trees and just a cabin… It reminds me of the old Christmas move ‘The holiday’.
If you have your own colors and aren’t a fan of the blues and browns, then mix it up with different threads to match your liking, it doesn’t have to all go by following instructions, sometimes a little creative intuition goes a long way!

16. starry night owl
This is another embroidery pattern mixed in with appliqué and this is truly stunning. The whole picture is magical and the starry sky definitely sets the centre stage for this with it’s gold thread embedded.
The navy felt background allows the rest of the embroidery to really pop from the hoop and it the thing with felt is it does mainly all of the work. All you have to do is do straight stitches around the felt to hold it in place, it’s very forgiving and easy to work with.
