This is driving me CRAZY

Maybe one of you can help.

Months ago, I read on someone's blog (I think it was a blog) about how she had stitched birth announcements for her baby boy. The pattern was a little elf in a pointy hat, which she stitched all in red, and I think it was a freebie from a French needlework site. She had some help from a friend to finish them all up, I remember. And I thought I bookmarked it, but apparently I didn't. Does anyone else remember this? I want to find that pattern.

This may also be a good time to mention that I am pregnant. My due date is in February.

Congratulations Susie! That's wonderful news.

I do know of a French designers who creates elves with pointy hats: it's Nimue. But I don't know of any freebie by her.
I found her charts here: Univers Broderie. There are 5 pages of her designs. Hope you find what you were looking for and congratulations once again.
Take care!

Forgot to add: There are also some charts here. (in case the first shop doesn't carry them all...)

Congratulations!!

I have an elf pattern in my freebie file at home...I'll check tonight and see if the pattern has designer info on it. I think it was a little blue elf leaning on a...pumpkin, maybe? and playing a flute.

I just saw this site as I was going around the Nordic knitting ring. It's in Finnish, but I love the cross stitch envelopes. Scroll down to see the 2nd set. http://saristitching.blogspot.com/

I've seen cross stitched cards before, but I never thought to stitch an envelope and actually mail it.
