THESE ARE A REAL BLESSING. THANK YOU AND THANK GOD FOR YOUR MINISTRY.
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome!
DeleteI wished you would let me know where you live. Are you making Chrismons for yourself or for a church?
Thank you for sharing these beautiful Chrismon patterns. The children of our church are making a set to take home. St. John's Lutheran, Concord,NC

ReplyDeleteThank you for your nice words. I just realized you are very lucky because I think you are close to Salisbury where you can get all the nice material.
DeleteWhat a joy to discover your site and your ministry. I am a pastor in Wisconsin and made a Chrismon design of a fish with a cross for each of the children in our church for Christmas last year. Your designs and your instructions - what a gift. God bless you.
ReplyDeleteNice of you to say so. Makes all that hard work worthwhile. Since I am not wise enough to do your work, I am very happy that God gave me a talent for this. Blessings for you too.
DeleteThank you so much for sharing these patterns...I started a Chrismon Circle at our Church and I can't tell you how much your ministry helps. Thank you and May God Bless you and yours!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you. So nice of you to say this. I have at least two more designs in my head but time ... Leaving Friday for the Holy Land. A tour first and then we want to walk the Jesus Trail. So excited. May be there will be more Chrismon inspirations? If you are interested ... I blog daily on my "main blog"
DeleteTHank you for sharing your patterns! They are beautiful and your instructions are done very well! I am passing these on to some women in our church in the hopes that we can make some new Chrismons this year. Many of our Chrismons are beginning to fall apart (Having been made in the 60's and 70's and not repaired or replaced since then.)
ReplyDeleteHeidi, wishing you lots of luck. One can never start early enough in the year. The church where I got started making Chrismons had many made from styrofoam. They get very brittle after the years.
DeleteYour patterns are wonderful! So many beaded patterns are too complicated for our ladies circle to attempt, even the ones that say for beginners, but yours are just what we need. We are making our first Chrismon tree here at Smoky Mountain Presbyterian, Maryville TN
ReplyDeleteMegan, thank you for saying this. I found that many of the more complicated Chrismons are just too frilly looking for me. I like clear lines. It's a matter of personal taste too. I am wishing you good luck. One can never start too early in the year.
DeleteI am so happy to have found your blog and patterns. We made Chrismons leading up to Christmas last year at my church and I wanted to find some simple patterns to teach some of the children on a mission trip I'm taking in a few weeks. A few of these are simple enough for the kids we will be working with in Mexico and a great way for them to take to their families what we'll be sharing with them in afternoon classes. Thank you! (I'm based in Raleigh, NC)
ReplyDeleteThe ladies at Pleasant Hill United Methodist Church in Meridian Mississippi have enjoyed gathering and creating Chrismons from your posted patterns through out this past year. The tree has been dreamed of for many years but never tackled. Thank you for providing well written patterns on such a variety of designs.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your patterns. We are having a class at our Church and they will help us so much!
ReplyDeleteI just found your fantastic page. What I have since a long time, though, is a best friend who is going to love the advent calendar that I will give her this year (2022) in December!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless and best regards, Eva
Christa, thank you for sharing your patterns. Our Women's Ministry Team will be having a Chrismon workday this summer to add to the ornaments my mother and her friends at church had made in 1981. They used Frances Kipps Spencer's designs in her Basic Series book. Although I am using this book myself, I had struggled to find a way to teach her designs to our ladies who think they are not crafty and creative. When I found your designs I knew I would be teaching yours to my friends. You have simplified the designs so anyone can succeed at making a beautiful ornament even if they are not super crafty. Thank you ever so much, and I look forward to seeing their confidence blossom as they make an heirloom Chrismon ornament that will bless our congregation for many years to come!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your talents. I love making Chrismons and were in need of new fresh patterns and ideas. I am gathering supplies and friends to work together to create these beautiful designs to add to our church Chrismon trees! Thank you again.
ReplyDeleteThank you Christa, for your beautiful, easy to follow patterns. We are a new Lutheran Church, made of 4 smaller churches in our area. We are making new Chrismons for our Christmas trees. We purchased a book of patterns and it is quite good, but your patterns are so much easier to follow. Thank you again. God's blessing for you and your church. Carolyn Warren, Harbor of Grace Lutheran Church, Muskegon Michigan
ReplyDeleteI found your wonderful patterns for Chrismons. The list of designs begins with Alpha & Omega and ends with Wheat. Did you add others?
ReplyDeleteI just found your amazing patterns! I make the memorial Chrismons for my church. I just made several of your patterns gir this year's service. Do you happen to have a shepherd's crook pattern?
