Cross Stitch Freebie Friday

Happy Freebie Friday! So very glad it is Friday, looking forward to a nice weekend with the kids!  Certainly looking forward to more sun and warmth, but will just be great to have some downtime with the kiddos. 

In celebration of Friday, I have decided to post a free cross stitch pattern.  I created these words/letters to be stitched on 14 count Aida or over 2 on 28 count linen ( for you really brave, patient souls out there) I created banners with them to hang on a mantle/tree/staircase.  Mine were hung on a tree that I donate each year to a local multi-service group. They were quick and easy to stitch up 




I cut my 5" squares of fabric, sewed the edged with a sewing machine and then trimmed the edges with pinking shears and attached them to a 5.

5" square of black scrapbook paper using two cross stitches.  I uses black twine for the banner and attached it on the back of each mounted letter using those same top cross stitches.  I think next year I will create the word believe again for my mantle.

Below are the words shown on a grid so I hope you enjoy and certainly would love to see anything you make using these letters :)
