Free Christmas Stitchery patterns and a tutorial for a halloween cross stitched scissor fob

 
 
 
 
Hi everyone, I promised I would have something stitched by the middle of October and here it is!
Work asked me to stay another month so I am working until the end of October instead of September, it's no problem, it just means I have not done any cross stitching or had chance to finish the peacock box, however, I have managed to stitch some Christmas Redwork Stitcheries ready for Christmas.  
 
I stitched this Red Brolly design whilst on holiday in September, it is a free pattern from Bronwyn Hayes at the Red Brolly blog, she has some gorgeous free designs, I urge you to go and check them out here  Bronwyn has lots of freebies and some great ideas, I just looooove her blog, thanks Bronwyn!   
 
Pictured below are some other stitcheries I have been working on recently, I particularly like stitcheries because they are so quick to stitch.
In my next post I will show you another piece I am working on,  together with instructions for any beginners out there.
 
At the bottom of this post I have included a link to my Halloween Scissor Fob tutorial.
 

 

 

 
 
I found this cute freebie from Elinskreativeside blog here 
 
 
 
 
Close up to see the fabric and the stitching, I used dmc 304 and 100% cotton fabric

 
Here is a sneak preview of another free pattern that I have been working on, I will give you the link and the full pictures in my next post, hopefully, next Sunday.

Until next time, happy stitching!

Beautiful stitching, and lovely desig
ns from Brolly . Do you use a hoop or snap frame for stitching?? I have done some in the past but they were smaller, and then some of an afghan,but always used a small hoop. Your stitching is so well done, and the fabric not puckered so was wondering .. Thanks ! :)
