More Mini Cross stitches

Here is my next batch of stitched up mini cross stitches. They are all done on the same hand dyed antique white 28 count lugana fabric, with the exception of the last picture. That one is stitched on plain old Antique white lugana.

I saw this design here over at the blog Little Lovelies, but it comes from the book A Rainbow of Stitches which they carry at my lovely local library.  The original was done in two colors but I liked it in just the one.


This is a free chart from from sub rosa called Keys to the Past. It's the companion freebie to Locks and Keys that I wrote about here.


I found the chart for this pretty little lady here via pinterest. The Chart was created by Corinne Leroy Creations.  I changed the colors to fit the basic muted brown color palate of all the mini cross stitches I've been stitching lately.


Finally, this was supposed to originally be a black dress, but again I changed it to a redish maroon, with dusky pink flowers to fit the color palate of the other small stitches I've stitched so far.  The pattern is another freebie from Les douces Heures de Piatine.

And that's it so far!

  3. Hi! Yes, these are all stitched from cross stitch patterns. There is a hyperlink below the photo for the blog Les douces Heures de piatine below the photo of the stitched dress. If you scroll down about a third of the way you will see the chart. Thanks for visiting my blog.
