Elf Workshop Stocking: cross stitch pattern / Різдвяна шкарпетка з ельфами: схема вишивки хрестом

My most recent design - Elf Workshop stocking. It is smaller in size, like my other stocking patterns, so they are quicker to stitch and can be used as ornaments too.

Such stockings are finished similar to the cross stitched mittens. I will post video tutorial too (hopefully in January 2026). 

The pattern is available in my shop.

First Christmas Stocking - cross stitch pattern / Маленький різдвяний носочок, схема вишивки хрестиком

First Christmas Stocking ornament. It is small and can be stitched more quickly than the regular sized bigger ones, and is also great for small stocking stuffers and candies. 

This stocking can be personalized: you can change the name and the year (the letters and numbers are included into the pattern). 

The pattern is available here. And it can be finished the same way, as the cross stitched mittens (I recently made a video tutorial for sewing them, here it is).

Frosty the Postman / Сніговик Листоноша

Frosty the Postman ❄ The idea to make such a snowman appeared a couple of years ago, when I made the first snowman. I wanted him to wear a hat and a bag, and to add all those miniature details that I love: buttons, embellishments! 

North Pole Post special employee, responsible for delivering letters with most desperate and heartfelt wishes!

Materials used: Aida 18ct, DMC, Kreinik, Wisper, felt and different buttons. You can make an envelope from paper (or use a button, as I did!). 

Available in my shop.

Freebies: 'Ukrainian Traditional Dress' mitts / Безкоштовні схеми рукавичок "Українське традиційне вбрання"

Час подарунків! Рукавички, вони ж ялинкові прикраси з секретом (всередині є кишенька) "Українське традиційне вбрання", безкоштовні схеми 2023 року. 

Як і багато з нас, я росла серед нав'язаного образу українського традиційного костюму: оці всі червоні шаровари, дивні спідниці, кислотні стрічки та квіти. Останні 3 роки вчуся та відкриваю зовсім інші сторони. Сподіваюся, я не допустила грубих помилок саме у вбранні у цих двох схемах. Хотілося передати і сорочки, і керсетку, і прикраси: дукач, намиста, шелести, перли!

Freebie: Pajamas Ghost / Схема в подарунок "Привид у пижамі"

Another Christmas gift from me! A little addition to the Ghost Stories: Pajamas Ghost. 

I finished it as a pocket in a hoop - great idea for small gifts, notes, gift tags! 

To do this just take a piece of Aida (non-stitched), and overlay it with another piece of Aida with stitching (fold its edge and overlay just the half of the bottom layered fabric). And then put the hoop on these 2 layers at once. Hope it sounds clear )

Ще один подарунок до Різдва - маленький привид у піжамі

Я оформила цього привида як кишеньку у п'яльцях. Для цього, спочатку візьміть нижній шар тканини (без вишивки), на нього покладіть тканину з вишивкою (загорніть її край), щоб утворилася кишенька. Та заправте у п'яльця обидві тканини водночас. Сподіваюся, зрозуміло!
