No snow where you are stitching? Frosty wants to share his winter home with you! Like all the previous houses, Frosty Winter House is built from 4 lined triangles attached to a square base. Snow white ribbons tie the sides together.
House Details
The walls of the house are covered in snow and icy beaded flakes. Winter robins (stitched over 1) perch on fir trees, greeting you at the front door beneath a very large doorbell.
Frosty’s snow friends, Blizzard and Flurry, are visiting today and you can see them at the windows on either side of the house. (Frosty keeps the house very cold so they won’t melt!) They are joined by 3 tiny snowmen with earmuffs on one side and 2 little snow mice and a sledding mouse on the other. In the backyard a special wooden tree holds snow gear with 2 pairs of little snow boots below. Snowflakes have silver crystal bead centers; white snowball beads are dotted here and there. Inside, white felt walls surround a pretty snowflake rug. Beneath the rug, another little mouse with a blue scarf scurries around the base. The felt walls can hold needles and pins or tiny embellishments.
Frosty Snow Mouse Details
Frosty Snow Mouse lives in this house. He wears a snowflake sweater, striped mittens, a purple wool cap with a tiny pompom and a blue floss scarf. Please notice his “carrot” nose, he is very proud of it! His curly tail is white wired string, and he fits inside the house.
