🎄 Christmas in July: Cross Stitch Ornament Tags Tutorial 🎄
A Collaboration with Therm O Web and Benzie Design
These little tags pack a big punch of holiday cheer. Each one is double-sided:
🎁 One side is personalized with a name or message, perfect for gift-giving.
🎄 The other side features a sweet ornament design, ready to hang on the tree as a keepsake!
Whether you stitch one side or both, you’ll love how easy these are to make. Cross stitch is done on a neutral 32-count linen/evenweave or 16-count Aida cloth with Sulky Petites or DMC cotton floss. The tags are cut from Wool Blend Felt by Benzie Design, stiffened with SpraynBond Fabric Stiffener Spray....and there is a cute holly embellishment made from Wool Blend Felt with the option of a tiny 1/4" button. The tie/hanger is cute, red and white baker's twine.
