Christmas At Buttermilk Basin ブック by Stacy West

The stitchery patterns are just the right size for quick holiday projects, and the framed pieces come together beautifully. I've already made two of the gift bags and they turned out adorable, though I need to hunt down some more fabric for the stockings.

I was really impressed with how clearly the stitching diagrams are laid out in this book—it made following along with the framed stitcheries a breeze. The variety of ornament patterns alone is worth it for getting into the holiday spirit.

The little framed stitchery patterns are exactly what I needed for quick holiday gifts, and the book’s small-scale projects feel doable even after work. I’ve already finished the stocking pattern and it came together in one cozy evening.
