Ultimate Cross Stitch Christmas - UK (2019-10)

Snowy


landscapes


Stitch six picture-perfect seasonal cards,


these circular greetings are ideal for winter


birthdays and all-occasion celebrations


E


ach charming chart in


this collection makes


for a relaxing and


quick-to-finish stitch – and


they’d be perfect for all levels of


stitchers, for so many different


occasions. Stitch to celebrate a


winter birthday or anniversary,


a thank you, or even just to let a


loved one know you’re thinking


of them. Worked in a soft


palette of frosty colours, you’ll


achieve the painterly effect of


these landscapes using mainly


whole cross stitches, some in


two strands, some in one, for


a real sense of 3D depth, then


a little backstitch to bring out


the details. Each fits neatly in


a circular aperture card blank


too, excellently colour matched


for a perfect finish. Stitch them


for your stash, ready to have to


hand to send to loved ones.
