Christmas Countdown #15: Noia Land

I can't think of anything more delightful than this Mouse Elves pattern by Noia Land. If adorable patterns are your thing, there are lots more to be found in Noia Land's Etsy shop!

Christmas Countdown #14: Bumpkin Hill

This Friends For Tea ornament pattern in Bumpkin Hill's shop is adorable, isn't it? We featured this Friends for Tea pattern a few years ago, but it is totally worthy of a repost, in my opinion!

Catherine also has some delightful new patterns in her shop as well:

Thanks Catherine, for pointing these out via email - to see more, visit the Bumpkin Hill Etsy shop!

Christmas Countdown #11: Hallodribums

Nothing says Christmas like this sweet UFO themed Christmas pattern in the Hallodribums Etsy shop! I love the simple, sketchy lines, and the sweetness of this little pattern. For you less traditional Christmas fans out there.

Christmas Countdown #10: Little Thimble Studios

Simple, sweet, and lovely - this Merry and Bright pattern by Little Thimble Studios is just perfect! This shop is a lovely place to visit for some Christmas cheer, and exquisite hand-embroidered artworks.

Christmas Countdown #7: Trellis and Thyme

I'm in love with this Merry Little Trees pattern for ornaments by Trellis and Thyme. I love the unusual colors - a cute change from the traditional red and green - who can resist a cheery pink tree? If you enjoy making handmade felt ornaments, there are many to be found in the Trellis and Thyme shop!

Christmas Countdown #6: Little Beach Hut

How about this adorable Christmas Badgers cross stitch pattern in Little Beach Hut's shop? So cute, and perfect to give as a gift or ornament.

There's also a beautiful kit version of this pattern in her shop as well!

What a lovely shop!

Christmas Countdown #5: NaNee Hand Embroidery

I adore this sweet Cozy Sweater pattern in NaNee Hand Embroidery's shop. It looks just perfect stitched on natural linen, doesn't it? And the nice traditional Christmas reds and greens are wonderful.

Christmas Countdown #4: RedBear Design

I'm loving the bold colors in this Joy Cross Stitch pattern by RedBear Design. There are loads of lovely Christmas and holiday patterns and kits in this shop - if you're looking for a sweet small project for the holidays, you might like to visit the RedBear Design shop!

Christmas Countdown #3: Lolli And Grace

These wonderful Sewing Ornaments by Lolli and Grace certainly merited a feature. The best thing about crafting ornaments for the holidays is that if you run out of time for this year's tree, you can simply pack them up and be ready early for next year's crafting!

Christmas Countdown #2: Larissa Holland

How exquisite is this 8 Maids A-Milking pattern by Larissa Holland? The pattern is part of a gradually released series of patterns, based on the 12 Days of Christmas song, here are all 8 patterns so far:

  

  

  

  

It's no secret that I love Larissa Holland's patterns - every year at Thanksgiving I pull out her beautiful Snow bird pattern, and make ornaments to give away to friends and family for the holidays. I know from experience that Larissa's patterns are extremely detailed and well-made, and I highly recommend a visit to Larissa Holland's shop for truly wonderful holiday inspiration!

Christmas Countdown #1: Threadhoney's Shop

Happy Holidays pattern - Threadhoney shop

Hi all! It's been a rough year, hasn't it? It's December and I thought we might all need some Christmas cheer. So I'll be counting down the days to Christmas - our wonderful friend Pam did our countdown in years past, and I'll be doing it in her honor this year.

I'll put my Wonderful Wednesday posts on pause for the month of December, so I can feature a new inspiring shop every day until Christmas. Whether you're in the market for a new pattern or not, I hope these images will inspire you!

So, first up, is Threadhoney's shop on Etsy - I love the simple style in the Happy Holidays pattern above, and the wintery blue palette.

We Wish You A Merry Christmas pattern - Threadhoney shop

But if red and green are where it's at for you, this We Wish You A Merry Christmas pattern has got you covered. Is there a shop you love that you'd like me to feature? Leave a comment below!

Wonderful Wednesday #29: Brighter Industries

This sweet Christmas A to Z cross stitch pattern by Brighter Industries looks just adorable. And if the shop name Brighter Industries is new to you, as any loyal reader of Feeling Stitchy, the name Jo should be very familiar, indeed.

Jo Stafferton was a wonderful contributor to our blog for quite some time, featuring new Etsy patterns and online shops in a weekly Sunday feature. So it is such a pleasure to feature her brand new Etsy shop and pattern on this Wonderful Wednesday!

Wonderful Wednesday #27: Clementine Patterns

In the past week, with all that has happened, I find myself taking comfort in the qualities I see in those that I respect and admire. I don't have to listen to the voices that speak the loudest - if I can filter through and find the voices that speak the truth in love.

So this Fruit of the Spirit pattern by Clementine Patterns really speaks to me this week.

Wonderful Wednesday #26: Plastic Little Covers

This Be Brave Pattern in the Plastic Little Covers Etsy shop says everything I want to say today. For our families, friends, country, and our neighbors - be brave.

Vintage Crewel Color Blowout

Melissa Davison, aka SweetStitches on Twitter, tweeted a link to me of this wondermous wall-hanging in colorful crewel. It's still available for sale in Lady Jane Collections' etsy store. But for how long...?

ETA: Not long. It sold already!

Temari Thread Balls

Going all over the etsy-place a few weeks ago favoriting this and favoriting that, I discovered (meaning: heard about for the first time) temari thread balls. And all because they were being brilliantly offered by Julie and Co.

Edited: to add that Julie is offering Free Shipping for Feeling Stitchy readers, so go on and get yourself some of her beautiful work! -Carina

Love Maze

Boy- I really like this embroidered maze bag by drummbellina on etsy. It's so simple and yet, so complex! Like, oh I dunno...love? (It also makes me think of sashiko.) A maze! Why didn't I think of that? Why didn't you think of that? Thank goodness she thought of it!

(Yes, it took all my willpower to not call this an a-"maze"-ing bag. Oh wait, I just did. Dang.)

Swirly Whirly

I was taking a peek-ola at Gigglymama's Etsy store, and this bit of frenetic and beautiful brown stitching caught my eye! I will refrain from snagging it out from under you. Go- you get it.

Peacock Fascinator

Okay, in case you haven't noticed yet (and I almost want to keep her all to myself), Sew Sweet Stitches is knocking out some really, really incredible stuff in her etsy store.
