Gingerbread Houses Ornaments - Embroidery Sampler Panel by Dropcloth Samplers

Designed by US based textile artist Rebecca Ringquist

Gingerbread Houses! An embroidery sampler that when complete you can sew into four festive holiday ornaments, perhaps with customized messages of love on the bottom or backside.  Basic Instructions included.  

This sampler includes four Gingerbread House panels for you to embroider by hand.  We used back stitch, running stitch, satin stitch, and french knots, but you can choose your own stitches to suit your own taste.  For best results, we recommend using 3 strands of embroidery floss or size 8 perle cotton in your needles.  This is a great opportunity to use beads and sparkly threads as well!

You will need:

• Embroidery Thread
• Needles
• Scissors
• Backing fabric or wool
• Sewing Machine (optional)
• Iron and Ironing Surface

(please note this does not include any threads or embellishments)
