I think winter is the perfect time for doing needlework. Cozy up in your favorite chair, wrap in a blanket, turn on the show in the background and embroider, embroider!.. Moreover, it is important to have time for preparing gifts for your family and friends. So these two activities can (and should) be united :)

I found many beautiful winter and Christmas patterns for cross-stitch — and I share my findings with you. This embroidery will be a good gift, but we can go further: decorate bags for gifts, cards, pillows and cloths, even jewelry boxes! Free flight of fantasy and pure inspiration are provided.

All patterns are presented in a large size — click to open a full-scale view. Many of them already have a list of used shades with numbers, for others it will be easy to find threads.

The next selection includes miniature scenes:

I could not leave aside the symbol of the next year — a pig :)
