As I've mentioned before, although I love Christmas and the Christmas season, I do NOT like the way that the holiday has been extending further and further back in the calendar – Christmas carols in November and all that sort of thing. However I do appreciate that if you're going to do embroidery with a festive theme, you do have to start early. So here (in November, I'm afraid…) are three squares with a holiday theme. You could use them in Christmas cards, on mug mats or on all sorts of Christmas table linen
Christmas 1
Christmas 2
Christmas 3
I don't think these designs really need worksheets – they're all for the 4 inch x 4 inch (100 mm x 100 mm) hoop, and all of them have one applique area (that's the square background). You just need to follow the colour instructions and you should produce work that's pretty much like the pictures. I did use a metallic silver thread for the "Silver" colour which does add a nice festive shine to the results
Anyway, here is number 1, here is number 2, and here is number 3 – all in .pes v.6
Thank you Mia, a lovely surprise. Delightful designs, which as you say, can be used in a variety of ways, the imagination runs wild. You are very generous, to keep providing us with such lovely freebies.
Thank you so much for the lovely Christmas designs. They will be perfect to embroider on all types of items for Christmas. Metallic threads will add an extra touch of elegance.
Thank you so much. These are beautiful

Thank you. So pretty!
How lovely! Thank you once again for sharing your skill and artistry with us, so we can share it with others. These will make many Christmas items…the size makes them quite adaptable. You are very generous, dear Mia!
Thank you Mia. Hope you have a lovely Holiday Season. I’m not doing much yet. Still trying to recover from the 12 hour open heart surgery, but looking forward to getting back to embroidery maybe the first of the year. Hope all is well in your world. Thanks again for the lovely designs.
Thanks!
These are so useful for so many projects! Thank you for such lovely gifts.
