Three Snowman Ornaments - front

Three Snowman Ornmanents - backAccessories add character to each of the three adorable snowmen in the needlework, felt-backed ornaments. One wears a simple scarf. Another has a pom-pom stocking cap and scarf. The third snowman sports a feathered hat and scarf.  The 3” tall x 2” wide ornaments’ snowman is framed with ribbon and its image-free back has plenty of room for a name and year to make it special.

BONUS INFORMATION – The pattern includes information to make a pin out of the design so you will be able to show off your creativity while you’re out enjoying the holiday season.

By stitching just 3 stitches per minute, each ornament will provide just over an hour of needlework entertainment. All snowmen use backstitch, Gobelin, half cross, and French knot stitches in the needlework. The feather is created using a chain stitch in the snowman with the feather hat and scarf.

The ornaments were created for the 2011 Dodge House (www.dodgehouse.org) tree decorating done by my Omaha Needle Artists Chapter (www.orgsites.com/ne/omahaneedleartists) of the Embroiderer’s Guild of America (www.egausa.org). —Becky Rawls-Riley, Ornament Creator
