Nikki is beginning a new 12-part set of ornaments - first one shipped this December of 2023. They will be all different sizes, and we know they are on 32ct Beautiful Beige Linen but beyond that, we don't have many details! She'll be featuring her Mom's floss - Classic Colorworks - for the entire series.

One chart each month till next Dec... these first two look darling! #1 is called Christmas House, measures 55w x 52h, and uses mostly Classic Colorworks with a bit of DMC thrown in. We'll begin an auto-ship... you are welcome to choose any fabric you like... and we'll be gathering thread sets as well.

(Note: when you order an auto-ship, it will show up on your order form as a "zero-cost" or $.01 item, as we won't charge your credit card until we ship.)

A cute little North Pole wintery scene... Santa and Mrs are waving, and there is a pair of elves trimming a village tree up near the top. Finishes 8 x 11 on 32ct, you could actually split the three rows in this and stitch it all in a long row.

The houses are charming... coded for Classic Colorworks hand-dyed flosses or DMC.

A sweet little scene by Country Cottage Needleworks - this measures 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 when stitched on 32ct Linen. You could extend the side borders a bit and add a family name if you want... and you could change the color of the house... but gotta keep those valentines in the trees!

Away We Go from Country Cottage Needleworks -- click to see more Away We Go
This is super cute! Nikki's newest, this is worked on 32ct Chalkboard Black fabric. There are quite a few dark charcoal and black-ish fabric options on the market now... so we can find you something that you can SEE on... don't be deterred by this dark background.

Finishing 8 x 6 on that 32... this is coded for DMC and Classic Colorworks floss. I love that little Santa on there! Wouldn't he be cute stitched with just the words below and made into a little drum?



Beach House from Country Cottage Needleworks -- click to see more Beach House
Little gulls and sand dollars on the sand, this is a simple and sweet design that finishes approx 4-1/2 x 5-1/2.

Choose a 'sandy colored' fabric, maybe add a few sandy-colored beads on the beach, maybe a little blue metallic in the water, and maybe some long stitches for fronds in the palms... and maybe purchase a beach house to display this???!


Afternoon in Paris from Country Cottage Needleworks -- click to see lots more Afternoon in Paris
This is a charming Paris street scene by Nikki Leeman of Country Cottage Needleworks. It is worked on 32ct Star Sapphire linen (which is a yummy, pretty and light seafoamy color) and uses a combination of 12 colors of DMC and hand-dyeds.

Finishing approx 13 x 4, it has so many separate design elements that you could pull out of here and stitch individually... or choose just the restaurant table and Eiffel Tower for instance... I love those balloons... and the Arch is pretty cool too! Offered as a chart.


Afternoon in New York from Country Cottage Needleworks -- click to see more Afternoon in New York
This is Country Cottage's third design in this set of little city rows -- she has London and Paris already published. So cool, the hot dog vendor is here, the park bench, Empire State Building, a taxi, a brownstone, and friendly fire hydrant for all the neighborhood dogs!!!

Offered as a chart, this is stitched on 32ct Waterlily linen with hand-dyeds and DMC flosses. it finishes approx 13 x 4... Something fun to remember your travels to New York City!!!

Cottage Alphabet from Country Cottage Needleworks -- click to see more Cottage Alphabet
One of Nikki's pastel cottage scenes tops this organized block of the alphabet. Finishing approx 8 x 10 on 32ct, stitch it by itself, or add the letters.

It might be kind of fun to personalize this a little -- instead of the repeating corner motifs with the letters... change them out and add family first names or special places your family likes -- lake -- in the L space, or Disney in the D space... or Rover for the puppy in the R space... just thoughts! Offered as a chart.


Merry Christmas My Deer from Country Cottage Needleworks -- click to see more Merry Christmas, My Deer
What a fun Christmas decoration -- wouldn't it be neat to personalize for a first Christmas together... or fun to display in the foyer? By Country Cottage Needleworks, this is offered as a chart.

It is stitched on the 32ct Natural Petit Point linen that features white dots painted on. (Those little dots are way cute, but a little more challenging to negotiate than regular linen.) Anyway, just a few DMCs and hand-dyeds, it finishes approx 8-1/2 x 5-1/2... and the general concensus is that it is CUTE!


Country Cottage's Countdown To Christmas -- click to see more
Countdown To Christmas
Country Cottage Needleworks presents an Advent Calendar that is bitty in size but big on charm. Finishing a mere 6 x 10 on 32ct, it's coded for DMC and hand-dyeds.

Just choose a fabric color that accents all the pretty white stitches. Maybe even blend in some opalescent metallic filament with the white??? Coded for DMC, the only hand-dyed floss used is Baby Spinach by Gentle Art. Lots of opportunities for scattered beads, a glass snowflake treasure and maybe even a little sticky-out clay carrot nose for that little snowman! Offered as a chart.
