Updated December 11, 2019. On Wednesdays and Saturdays until Christmas, Nuts posts will highlight great ornament ideas from others throughout the Web. Today’s Bargello project is from Russia.
The shapes of pine cones seem to fall naturally into the same shapes you find in Bargello needlepoint. That makes me wonder why it has taken this long to translate those shapes into a lovely piece of needlepoint.
But this elegant and easy Bargello Needlepoint pine cone ornament does just that. The blog post, in Russian and English, has several pictures of the finished ornament and the chart.
I’m excited to stitch one, or more, of my own.

This is not one of my projects. It’s a free project posted on the blog linked to in the article. While the pattern is free, you customer will need to get thread and canvas.
Keep stitching,
