Christmas in November? A free wreath

I adore Christmas and all that goes with it, but all the same I get really cross when the Christmas decorations start going up in October or November. Still, there’s no getting away from the fact that some preparation does have to be done well before the date, so here’s a Christmas freebie for November. It’s an all-embroidery design (no applique) and it’s for the 5×7 inch hoop, so there’s enough space in the middle for you to add a (short!) Christmas message of your own. It tales a while to stitch out (nearly an hour on my machine) and there are quite a few unavoidable jumps, but it’s an effective design and I hope it will be worth the trouble

Here is the design, (in .pes v.6) and here is the worksheet. And a Happy Christmas to you, even if it is only November!

  1. Mia, thank you for this beautiful Christmas wreath. You are right, unfortunately, we need to start our Christmas presents early, so they will be ready for giving on that special day.

  2. Thank you! I really like the wreath. I’ll report back as to how long it takes to stitch out on the 6-needle.

  3. Hi Mia, Thank you so much for this stunningly beautiful Christmas wreath. I think the gold and white running ribbon or garland will be gorgeous in metallic gold and silver threads.

  4. I enjoy the way you look at the world and your work (which is very inspiring and looks more like a painting). Thank you!!

  5. Mia,
    Thank you for sharing a beautiful design. I’ve stitched mine out on white suede cloth and added machine embroidered pine cones in the corners. Added a few beads….lovely.
    I’d be happy to share a photo with you!
