Draw Christmas onto the table runner
Bring out your fabric marker and draw little Christmas trees directly onto the table runner. A cosy idea where you decide the motif, colours and just how Christmassy it should be.

A little Christmas greeting at every place
A few simple stitches are enough to make a white fabric napkin feel completely special. Embroider a little Christmas tree, a star or another simple motif and give each place setting its own little Christmas greeting.

Linen for the Christmas table
Linen is perfect for both tablecloths and napkins and gives the table a beautiful, natural texture. Leave the edges raw for a simple look, or give them a little extra attention with a beautiful finish.
Inspiration for you
Let Christmas settle in softly
Christmas spirit can also be something you can lean into. Sew Christmas cushions in light shades, play with winter motifs and little details, and let your usual sofa favourites have some festive company in December.
Idea 14
A snowy scene for the sofa
Sew a cushion in tapestry fabric with a little snowy scene that almost feels like looking out onto a white Christmas. Place it on the sofa or your favourite chair and bring it out again when December comes around.
Idea 15
A little Christmas sparkle for the sofa
Sew a simple cushion and give it a personal twist with glitter letters in silver vinyl. Choose a word that suits your Christmas and make a cushion with just the right amount of sparkle.
Idea 16
A Christmas tree you can cuddle
Sew a soft Christmas tree cushion in white faux fur and let it join the cushions on your sofa. Use our free template and make a little piece of Christmas decoration that is also wonderfully soft to cuddle.
Inspiration for you
A little group of Christmas friends
Some Christmas projects almost take on a personality of their own. Sew a goose, a Christmas pig or a snowman and let these soft Christmas friends move into the hallway, the living room or anywhere they can spread a little extra December cheer.

A little flock of Christmas geese
Sew a soft Christmas goose or a little duckling in natural-coloured fabrics and give it its own look with a Christmas hat, bow or other festive details. Make one, or sew a whole little flock to move in for Christmas.
