Gingerbread Village Counted Cross Stitch Set of Eleven Patterns by Country Cottage Needleworks
The Gingerbread Village Pattern Set by Country Cottage Needleworks is a series consisting of 11 designs.
The first design, Gingerbread Train, is larger than the rest (stitch count of 110w x 60h). The remaining 10 designs are all the same size (55w x 60h). If the entire design is stitched together it has a total stitch count of 220w x 184h.
The Gingerbread Village series will look adorable finished separately as cubes, stand up flat folds, ornaments, etc. If you choose to stitch the entire series together as shown, the first design in the center will be Gingerbread Train. Then move a block over to the left for the next piece, and then continuing clockwise around the entire piece. The blocks that are next to each other horizontally are stitched right next to each other with no spaces in between. There are two stitches however, in between the rows vertically…. (quoted from Country Cottage Needleworks)
Notions:
The fabric used for the models is Wichelt’s 32 count Lambswool Linen. The designs also use the same threads throughout. If all of the designs are stitched, a total of these many skeins of floss will be needed: Classic Colorworks’ Bean Sprout (2) and Ribbon Red (2); Weeks’ Hazelnut (3) and Pecan (5); DMC White (4), 3371 (1), 469 (1), and 741 (1).
There is an optional JABCO (Just Another Button Company) button used in each design. They are not included with the patterns. If you like the button, purchase it to add on, if no then just stitch the chart as directed without. Keep in mind that the buttons were chosen to fit with the 32 count fabric, so if you choose a different fabric count they may not fit as well.
* Eleven Pattern charts only. No threads, fabric, frame included
