Toy soldiers needlepoint patterns

Toy soldiers: a drummer boy in a tall hat with his drum at the waist, and the steadfast tin soldier at attention on his one leg.

The drummer boy is standing and facing front, with a drumstick in each hand. Both are drawn in several styles. All are four inches square on 18 mesh and most can be made as a round ornament. Many are marked advanced; begin early if they are for the tree, since finishing takes time too.
