Needlepoint ornament patterns

Designs to hang: round ornaments, hearts, Easter eggs and mini stockings, and a Christmas bauble drawn on a square in five styles.

The round ornaments include slices of lemon, lime, orange, kiwi and grapefruit, a baseball, a tennis ball, a ladybug and a sunflower; the hearts include gingham, tartan, stripes and bargello, and the Easter eggs gingham, stripes and bargello. Most are about four inches across on 18 mesh; the mini stockings are four by six. More than half are marked beginner. Finishing an ornament takes time on top of the stitching, so start early if it is for a date.
