So I've been doing more cross-stitching lately, since it's so easily portable. This was inspired by a finish I saw in one of my FaceBook stitching groups. The pattern was free online (I repeated the hearts across the entire length), and I used a font generator to get the quote charted. (I can't remember which font generator I used, or what the font was - oops!) I made one for a Dr. Who fan friend, and I'm currently working on another for another friend.
These are small designs I found free online - Boba Fett and stormtrooper helmets. I did them on Aida cloth stretched over frames. I found them at Michaels - both online and in store. These are done on oatmeal, and I really liked the way they turned out. I have plans for a bunch more. The great thing is that you don't have to decide how to finish them (frame, hoop, whatever) when you finish stitching. You're just done.
