The
"Frosty Forest" series is a 9 part series, with one pattern being
released each month starting in November 2013. All of the designs have a
suggested fabric of 32 count Pearl Grey Linen, and all measure the same
size with a stitch count of 65w by 65h. This makes them about 4" square
on the 32 count fabric.
Each
of the designs look great stitched on their own, but they were designed
so you can stitch them all together. If you decide to stitch the
entire series in the way that I am showing it, it will have a stitch
count of 199w x 199h, which makes it about 12 1/2" square, so you will
need an 18" square piece of 32 count fabric. If you decide to stitch
all the designs as one piece, simply leave two stitches between each of
the blocks. The first design is "Raccoon Cabin," which
is the top middle block. The following designs will be released in
clockwise order, ending with the "Frosty Forest" design in the middle.
Another
special part of the designs is that each will use one button from Just
Another Button Company. Using the button though is completely optional,
and so it is not included with the pattern. If you like the button you
can purchase it to add on, and if not, then just stitch the chart as
directed without the button. Keep in mind that the buttons were chosen
to fit with the 32 count fabric, so if you choose a different fabric
count they may not fit the design as well.
To
make it easier to plan out how you may want to stitch your village, I
am giving a list of the pattern names in the order that they will be
released.
