About this pattern
This personalized pet name Christmas ornament cross stitch pattern puts your dog or cat in a Santa hat, with their name across the middle, "SANTA PAWS" underneath and the year on a little bone or fish. Our dog spends every December asleep under the tree, so of course she needed one.
Six pets to choose from, each charted in full:
- Floppy-eared pup, pointy-eared pup and short-snout pup
- Tabby cat, black cat and ginger cat
What's inside
- All six ornament charts in color, black and white, large print and Pattern Keeper files
- Three alphabets with numbers: Hearth Bold for names up to 8 letters, Hearth Narrow (same height) for up to 11, and Tiny Caps for the year
- A name-spacing worksheet with a worked example, simple centering steps and a blank ornament to plan on
- Felt-back ornament circle templates, a real-size page, a stitch-time estimate and a progress tracker
Size: 57 x 57 stitches, about 4.1 in on 14 count, 3.6 in on 16 count or 3.2 in on 18 count. Full stitches only.
Finish it as a felt-backed ornament, or display it in a 5 inch hoop (a 4 inch hoop on 18 count). It's a sweet gift for any dog mom or cat dad, a new-puppy keepsake, or a gentle remembrance of a pet you miss. Two pets? Stitch both names on the line in Hearth Narrow with a heart between them.
I suggest Antique White Aida, so the white fur and hat trim stand out.
Plus our free beginner cheat sheet and bonus minis with every order.
