From our Heirloom Christmas line: a gingerbread house with icing and candy, drawn like an antique Victorian Christmas card and carved in fine engraved lines. Icing carved in fine lines, peppermint candies, gumdrops and a gold-lit window. Under it, "Home for the Holidays" is hand-lettered in a vintage script and stitched in satin. The light parts are the fabric itself, so it looks embroidered, not printed. Four sizes: an 8 × 12 for sweatshirt fronts, 6 × 10 and 5 × 7 with the lettering, and a 4 × 4 of the picture alone for ornaments, stockings and napkins.

  • 4 sizes included: 189 × 229 mm (8 × 12 in hoop), 149 × 181 mm (6 × 10 in hoop), 121 × 147 mm (5 × 7 in hoop) and 94 × 94 mm (4 × 4 in hoop). Each size is digitized at its own size, not scaled.
  • 4 thread colours, with Madeira Polyneon codes and the colour order on each size's production sheet.
  • Light fabric: made for cream, white, oatmeal and light gray sweatshirts, linen pillows, stockings and tea towels. The light parts are the fabric itself, so skip black and dark colors.

Best on sweatshirts, pillow covers, stockings and tea towels. Use a cut-away stabilizer on sweatshirts and knits and a firm tear-away on linen; stitch the gold in metallic thread for an extra-special finish.

Licence & refunds

Stitch this design on items for yourself or to sell. Please don't resell, share or redistribute the files themselves.

This is a digital file: you need an embroidery machine and a way to load files onto it. Resizing a stitch file changes its density, so ask us for another size instead of scaling it.

Downloads are instant, so sales are final. If a file doesn't sew right, tell us and we'll fix it. See the refund policy.
