About this pattern

Stitch Carolyn Letten and Sophia Palmer's special set for baby's first Christmas.

There’s nothing like a new baby in the family to reignite the magic of Christmas. Use machine embroidery to personalise this trio of heirloom gifts, each designed to commemorate that first year of festive cheer. Once the little one has grown out of their comfort blanket, and the card has come down from the mantelpiece, they can be popped away in a memory box to be cherished for years to come, while the mini baby grow decoration can be brought out every year to hang on the tree.
