Bauble & Heart Hoops
CROSS STITCH PATTERN DESIGNED BY Faby Reilly Designs
These ornate Christmas motifs are stitched on a cross stitch base, then beautifully embellished with metallic threads, beads and sequins, giving the piece a dimensional effect and reflecting light.
The pair can be stitched to be displayed side by side, or alternatively, you can mount them on each side of a single hoop. Another idea would be to stitch the back omitting the center motif so you can stitch a text of your choice (Merry Christmas + date, a welcome message etc.)
The piece pictured on the photograph was stitched on 32 Zweigart linen and will fit into a 5 inch hoop. You could also mount these ornaments in the manner of a round pinkeep.
There is another matching pair of ornaments with a Christmas tree and a Snowflake (sold separately), so you can stitch four ornaments in total.
A tutorial is included with the chart for all specialty stitches as well as for mounting the stitched piece in the hoop and finishing it as a frame.
