Worried about your stitching skills? Don’t be! These patterns are specifically designed with beginners in mind. Each ornament features simple, clear instructions and an easy-to-follow chart, perfect for beginners and experienced stitchers as well. Each pattern is a full-page color chart with symbols, making them perfect for those who are new to cross-stitching or want a festive project that’s perfect for a relaxing cozy evening!
I chose pink 14-Count Aida cloth for these ornaments, giving them a charming, festive vibe. The soft pink background also has a bit of shimmer, and who doesn’t love sparkle during the holidays? It also pairs beautifully with the vibrant DMC floss colors, making each ornament a joy to create.
Once your stitching is complete, finishing your ornaments is a breeze! In today’s video, I’ll show you how to finish the ornaments and a few tips for creating the special stitches in this year’s ornaments as well. You can personalize them even further by adding names or dates to commemorate special memories.

Additionally, the pattern includes a whole cloth stitching version, allowing you to create a lovely piece of art that can be framed or displayed as a standalone decoration. My tester stitched this whole cloth version, and it’s beautiful. I just might have to stitch it this December for Vlogmas. Stay tuned…
