The Stitching Journey
This design is very satisfying to stitch in sections — you might begin with the rooster and hen, then enjoy filling in the poinsettia border cross stitch details, ornaments, and greenery. The mix of bold festive colours and smaller decorative elements keeps things interesting, while the full-stitches-only format keeps the stitching experience simple and relaxing.
For a neat, balanced look as you go, many stitchers like to build the border a little at a time (one corner, then the next), so the frame grows evenly around the roosters.
