I just ordered Poinsettia House by Little House Needleworks from my favorite on-line cross-stitch shop, 123Stitch along with a new kind of floss (new for me that is), Crescent Colours. The pattern is described as “Soft colors, a snow hill and the flowers of the season. . . . . .poinsettias!”
Crescent Colours used include: Roasted Chestnut, Timber, Clay Pot, Weeping Willow and Wild Berries. The remaining thread is DMC. Can’t wait for it to arrive so I can start work on it.
UPDATE: Fast forward to 2017. I cannot believe this has been sitting in my stash for SEVEN YEARS!
I decided to stitch this one on 16ct Chocolate Milk Aida from Hand Dyed Fabrics by Stephanie. I used the suggested floss shown above. I decided to change the wording to ‘Tis the Season which I had seen posted some where else.

And here it is 2018 and this one is finally finished by Vonna Pfeiffer, the Twisted Stitcher. I really love it. Now do I keep it for me or give it as a Christmas gift this year.

I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you create this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz reply back as I’m looking to create my own blog and would like to know wheere u got this from. thanks
I can still remember my grade school teacher taught me how to make some cross-stitch before. It’s not easy. I tried many times but I end up on nothing. But this Poinsettia House is so beautiful. How I wish I can make it this time.
