Model
is stitched on 40-count Newcastle Linen by Zweigart
~ Cream (3348/222/55).

Floss
estimation is for stitching with one strand of floss over two linen threads
on 40-count fabric. DMC equivalent is only approximate, as there are no
exact equivalents for for hand-dyed fibers.
Entire design is stitched in cross-stitch.
I
encourage you to use floss and fabric colors that match your personality
and style.
About
the design: Each square contains a hidden letter of the alphabet (taken
from the center of the design) multiplied four times. Starting from the
top left corner square (box 1) and reading left to right for each row –
box one contains four of the letter “A”, box two contains four
of the letter “B”, box three contains four of the letter “C”,
and so on.
To design
your own inscription sampler:
1. Choose a word – for example: first name, last name, or “welcome”
2. Stitch the squares containing the letters of your word.
**(For those of you wanting a full-size "M" and/or "N",
they are posted in the freebie section
of my website. A square with four hearts and a blank square to design your
own are available as well.)**
Each
individual square has a stitch count of 41 x 41.
Each
square is the perfect size for a scissor fob, ornament, or needlebook.
