Create A Handmade Christmas Decoration
There's something special about adding handmade decorations to your Christmas tree.
Each ornament represents the time and care that went into creating it, making it a lovely alternative to another mass-produced decoration.
The included small wooden hoop provides a simple way to display your finished stitching, allowing your design and the fabric to become part of your festive decorating.
You could make one for your own tree, stitch a decoration for someone special or build a collection of handmade ornaments over time.
They're also a thoughtful gift for a cross stitch enthusiast who enjoys creating their own Christmas decorations.
A little stitching, a lovely finish and something handmade to bring out each Christmas.
About The Hand-Dyed Fabric
Each kit includes hand-dyed Zweigart Aida fabric that's been carefully selected to complement the design.
Because these patterns aren't full coverage, the fabric remains visible around the finished stitching and becomes part of the overall design.
The combination of the stitched motif and the hand-dyed background gives each finished ornament additional colour, depth and personality.
The fabric is an important part of the finished look, helping turn a small cross stitch design into a decorative piece you'll enjoy displaying.

Each design has its own difficulty rating, helping you choose a project that matches your current skills and confidence.
