Stitching time (estimate)
≈ 4–8 hours per design
That's roughly 1–2 weeks at about 5 hours of stitching a week. Just a rough idea: we assume an average of 100–200 stitches an hour, and everyone stitches at their own pace.
Christmas gift ideas →Six cozy little motifs in one warm set: a stack of books with reading glasses, a mug of hot chocolate, a folded plaid blanket with a pillow, a vintage table lamp, a potted plant beside books and a plate of cookies. All six share one soft palette of warm brown, dusty rose, cream, sage, muted teal and amber.
