Twelve Days in Twelve Months for 2025!
May I suggest stitching your way through 2025 by making one Twelve Days ornament pattern per month? The patterns start easy and get more complex as you work your way through the series, so you will build your skills. By the time you embroider and craft your way to December, you’ll have a beautiful heirloom set of fifteen wool felt ornaments to decorate your Christmas tree and enjoy for years to come. (BONUS: After finishing, you’ll be ready to jump into my intermediate ornament series: ’Twas The Night and Ebenezer!)
Q: I DIDN’T START IN JANUARY. IS IT TOO LATE?
A: It is 100% not too late! One pattern per month is actually a pretty slow pace. Sewing multiple ornaments per month is very doable! Each hand sewn ornament takes two or three crafternoons to complete. Even if you do not finish in 2025, you can still make great progress on a set!
Is this type of crafting new to you? Get started here.

SKILL LEVEL: Confident beginner, if you take the patterns in order from 1-12

I have one set of the Piper Piping ornaments to finish from 12 Days( I was working two sets simultaneously but decided to focus on a set for my daughter) then I will Jump into Twas’ the Night and maybe start Ebenezer. I will only be working one set of each of those for now. A monthly ornament sounds very doable. I can’t wait to see what your next creations will be.
Fantastic, sounds like you are making great progress!
I have one ornament left in my second set of 12 Days of Christmas, and have started on Twas the Night Before Christmas, but am taking a break from ornaments to do 2 Lodestar Tree toppers. I really want a new tree topper for my tree this year, and if I don’t start it now, It might not get done. Maybe my daughter’s will get done, maybe not. I love your patterns!!I found them at the perfect time for me about 4 years ago, when I needed a new craft and hobby. Thank You!!!!!!!
I love to hear that! Yes, the tree topper is a lot of stitches so give yourself plenty o time. Thanks so much!
