About this pattern

A small gray stone chapel in the snow at Christmas, seen from the front. A square bell tower stands at its left corner, with a dark belfry opening, two narrow lit windows, a steep snow-covered spire and a plain cross on top. Beside it the gable end of the nave has snow along both roof slopes, a round lit window, and a white arched door hung with a green wreath tied with a red bow. A snow-tipped pine stands to the right, and the whole scene rests on a bank of snow shaded in pale blue. A piece for a 5 inch hoop or a small frame. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only.

51 stitches wide by 55 high: 1,222 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Steel Gray 318, Winter White 3865 and 4 more).
