2006 Annual Cross Stitch Pattern
Joseph is the third figure in this series. Joseph looks to the Christ Child and Mary,
and completes the Holy family.
I saw a beautifully crafted card in 2006 with just Mary and the baby Jesus representing the family, and was surprised that
Joseph was not included. Wise men, shepherds, angel and a star were there, but no Joseph? To me, this was
just not right. It was Joseph that protected and guided this small family and his love of God and his
family carried him through challenges he faced. He is important in the creche.
This easy-to-read cross stitch chart of the “Christ Centered Christmas”
creche ornament series, like the baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph (all Creche charts here), will always be a free download from CarouselCharts.com.
Project works up quickly with few color changes.
Free Online Carousel Charts are .pdf downloads, immediately available and
can be printed from any color printer. Please support your local needlework shop (LNS) for
8.5"x10" (framing, ornament might be cut smaller), 28 or 32 fabric and floss.
Mill Hill clear petite beads and DMC floss is recommended,
but floss colors can easily be translated.
