A Chilly Parade of Stitches- 2025 Winter Parade of Past Freebies.

Brrr! It's cold outside, but it is a beautiful day nonetheless!  What do you have in store for the day? I am not sure what all is on my agenda, but I do know that there will involve a needle and thread. 

I think today would be perfect to enjoy a parade of stitches, doodles and quilts- all in the winter theme. I would love for you to enjoy me.💙⛄  

If you see any of the stitches or doodles that you would like to know more about, just click on the colored link and you will magically be taken to that particular post. I hope you enjoy!!

Some of these  stitches are Christmas ornaments, but they could be stitched for winter as well.

  2. Oh, tomorrow will definitely have a needle and thread involved. LOL You've posted so many incredible designs. I don't know which I would do first. Just when I think I know exactly what to stitch you post another "must do" design. Must stitch faster, must stitch faster!!! teehee Fortunately I have stitched some of the farm ornaments but there are so many I haven't stitched. My grandsons came by today to have dinner with me. It was really fun to see both at the same time. Trust me that's very unusual so I was in Heaven with both laughing and carrying on. I'm tired so I'm headed to bed. Happy, happy Sunday with lots of hugs. Stay warm. DarleneJ

  6. Good Morning and thank you for the Winter parade. So many wonderful projects. I just finished Prim Winter Love for my s-i-l's sister - they lost their father this year and I thought the love with the cardinals was perfect. Keeping warm here - chilly but not as bad as the north! Brrrr! Blessings!

  7. Oh what a lovely parade of stitching. It reminded me of all the patterns of yours I have stitched and not fully finished. 2026 will be the year of finishing. I made your first snowman embroidered quilt but didn’t quilt it. And your last one Mr Mchill I made the blocks but need to put them together in a top. Did you finish yours? Well let me see what I can get done today. Have a wonderful day.

  12. What a wonderful winter parade, Melisa! I always enjoy your parades and I know I say it each time you feature one. Yesterday was spent at Notforgotten Farm, so today will be spent on a few chores.

  13. I wish I could say it's cold outside. It is supposed to be in the 70s today through Christmas - ugh. Love your parade! The winter stamps are so cute. Diann has her finish featured on her post from yesterday - adorable!

  17. ho ho ho Merry Christmas beautiful Melisa.
    i just love this post. i found so many more patterns to print. guess what i did - i printed them. soooo wonderful.
    I love a parade
    The tramping of feet
    I love every beat
    I hear of a drum
    I love a parade
    do you remember that song? well it holds true for me: i love a parade!!!!
    you have included so many wonderful patterns. time for me to purchase another ream of paper. i just love all the patterns you have made available to us. you are one in a million. i just love you Miss Melisa.
    i hope you are having a wonderful day. i am ever since i read your blog. it's amazing. i did print a lot of the larger patterns to make into a quilt. Mr McChill, Mr Snow and Frosty and Flakes are the latest to add to my stack of wonderful patterns.
    it's time to get busy. i need to gather some fabric, grab my light box and start tracing. i just love these projects.
    thank you thank you thank you Miss Melisa. you made my day.
    blessings and love are on the way to you beautiful lady. God bless you and the family. do you have snow? we are in the mid 70's. rain is in the forecast for next week. it seems to always be in the forecast and then - gone, gone, gone - no more rain in the forecast.
    a great big squeezy bear hug is on the way to you.
