12 Cats of Christmas - Cross Stitch Pattern by The Blue Flower
12 Cats of Christmas - Cross Stitch Pattern by The Blue Flower
Original design by Jeannine McGowan
This is a full booklet, and it includes all 12 cats enjoying the holidays (drinking Santa's milk, ice skating, wearing holiday finery, and of course playing with the tree). I've included cats in a variety of colors and patterns so it will be easy for stitchers to reflect their own pets.
The model is stitched on 40 count "Steel Blue" linen from xJudesign (the closest DMC is 415). Stitch count varies by design - all the way from ornament scale through to pillows and even potentially framed designs. The models are trimmed with "Cucumber" velveteen and "Ogden Grass" chenille, both from Lady Dot Creates.
