Baby needlepoint patterns

Designs for a new baby and a nursery: blocks, rag dolls, teddy bears, rocking horses, toy trains, nursery animals and nursery rhymes.

Also here: spinning tops and pull-along ducks. All are four inches square on 18 mesh, and many can be made round. A small square or round makes a keepsake ornament for a first Christmas. They are not all simple: most take between five and ten colors, and each page gives its level. To finish one at home you wrap it over board, back it with fabric and add a cord.
