Coloured Cross Stitch Templates
So, slowly we can give ourselves over to everyday life again – e.g. to a nice cross stitch pattern ;-)
However you can find here other cross stitch patterns, too.
You can busy yourself with them for years ;-))

Cross Stitch Patterns Treasures
I found a blog where the author fetched the cross stitch patterns of an old aunt from the attic and published them.
I saw beautiful patterns thereby and it’s not as if you had to work cross stitch only with the patterns ;-)
The blog is written in Netherlands and English (the italic text), but the patterns can be recognized anyhow ;-))

What Can You Do With Filet Crochet/Cross Stitch Embroidery Charts?
What Can You Do With Filet Crochet/Cross Stitch Embroidery Charts?
Recently something took me and I thought that you can use those two-coloured charts which are usually associated with filet crochet or cross stitch for a loooot of other techniques, too.
I had this idea already before, in my entries about intarsia knitting, the cross stitch heart, the beaded square stitch heart and the polymer clay letter cane.
On the photo you see some letters worked in different techniques (I’m working on letter charts at the moment ;-)):
'u' -
Knit-Purl Knitting, each X is a purl stitch
'n' -
Fair Isle Knitting, each X is a white stitch
'i' -
Sequins Embroidery, each X is a sequin
'k' -
Tapestry Crochet, each X is a white stitch
'a' -
Filet Crochet, each X is a filled filet crochet square
't' -
Cross Stitch Embroidery on paper, each X is a black cross stitch
'i' -
Loom Beading, each X is a black bead
's' -
Stamping with square stamps, each X is a black square stamp
's' -
Illusion Knitting, each X is a black stitch over two rows
'i' -
Crochet Yoyo’s, each X is a white crochet circle from dc’s
'm' -
Inverted Filet Crochet, each X is a empty filet crochet square
'a' -
Macramée/Friendship Bracelet, each X is a white knot
But then I came up with more techniques and if you still have more ideas I’d be glad if you wrote a comment about.
I added for every technique what would be a square of the chart.
Please remember: Not all ‘units’ are square so that the result can look quite different from the chart!
