Advent calendar - lacy tree - the surprise version

This is the 'surprise' version of this chart which is great if you want a stitchable advent calendar as the template and baubles are provided separately. The idea is that you stitch your template in advance so you are ready to add a daily addition during December in the run up to Christmas.

Each tiny bauble has its own little chart and key to show you where to stitch it on your tree. There are 8 little charts to a page, with scissor lines for you to cut along, meaning each day in December as Christmas approaches you can draw a surprise to stitch from a pile/envelope. 

If you would rather have a version with all the decorations added in for you to stitch the design in one go please click HERE

My sample was stitched on 18 count and fills an 8-inch hoop but this will scale up on 14 count fabric to fit into a 10-inch hoop. If you wished to stitch this on 16 count, you could pop it into a 10-inch hoop too. If you prefer a rectangular piece you could consider a hanging magnetic frame or something similar that can be hung to display as you stitch!

You can choose your own colours, each little bauble uses very little floss so it is a good stash-raiding opportunity! There are also alternative pot & star designs included.
