Gift card or finished pattern?

If they're the stitcher, a gift card is the easiest gift: they pick their favorite photo and style. You can schedule the email for the morning of their birthday.
If you have the perfect photo, make the pattern yourself and send them the PDF and shopping list — or stitch it for them.

For the pet's birthday

Pets' birthdays (and gotcha days) are a fun excuse for a small project: a 60 to 70-stitch circle with "Happy birthday" and a floral or heart border stitches up in a few weeks.

Wrap it like a crafter

Pair the pattern with the DMC threads from the shopping list, a piece of Aida and a hoop — a complete kit for their pet.

Questions

Can I send it on a specific day?

Yes. Gift cards can be scheduled for any day in the next year, and the recipient gets a friendly email with their code that morning.

Does the gift card expire?

No. Gift codes and pattern credits never expire.
