Alphabet biscornu

I have designed a little alphabet square that I am planning to stitch for a biscornu. Of course, it can be used for other things, such as a bookcover, a top for a box etc.

I hope you like it. :)

Happy stitching.

Free cross stitch pattern - recipe book cover

I have designed this cross stitch pattern because I would like to make a recipe book at some point - when I have done all the other things on my to-do list :).
It is monochrome, so you can pick your own colour, or use a variegated thread.
It can also be used for a photo-album or a scrapbook.

I included an alphabet so you can customise it.

Have fun stitching it and please, send me a photo if you do.

Cross stitch alphabet sampler and a giveaway

Hello, everyone. I have moved. I had to do it in a very short time, had a week to pack and arrange lots of administrative things, then travelled 3 days. And I have been working at my new workplace for a week now and enjoy it a lot. But didn´t have much time or energy for my hobby.

But today, finally, I managed to sit down with my program and finish the blue alphabet I started to design before moving.

Here it is: first a full picture, and then broken down into four pieces for easier printing. I also added the 10x10 lines to these, and tried to shade 3 rows and columns for overlap - I hope I didn´t make a mistake there, it was my first time. Not as easy as it seems. :) Hope you enjoy it.












And as promised, I am doing a GIVEAWAY to celebrate that my blog has attracted 20000 visitors. The price will be a pack of threads and fabric, with some unusual ones included. Cannot post a picture right now because some of my things still haven´t been unpacked but will do so soon.
The winner will be selected from those who post a comment and answer this question:

What type of patterns would you like to see in the future?

Looking forward to your answers. I will draw the winner next weekend.
See you soon.
