Free Quality Cross Stitch Designs

While I was searching online for something else, I had the luck to bump into this website called Stitch Alley that offers a wide range of free cross stitch designs. When I was still in school, I loved to cross stitch but I never know the correct way of doing it. So although my cross stitch handiwork looked fine in front, don’t even flip my cloth. You’ll see all those thread zig zagging!

Anyway, if you love cross stitch, you really should check out the designs that are available on Stitch Alley. Sure there are some designs that are for sale but for cheapo freebie lovers like us, we only aim for the free stuff, right? Hehehe!

Oh yes, let me know if you find these cross stitch designs up to your standard. Happy stitching!

Cross Stitch Freebies

Cross stitch remains one of my favourite hobbies though I have to concede that I do not have the time to indulge in it like I used to. The projects that I take on are mostly rush jobs and one could see that it was rushed. No, not nice at all.

For my friends who do have the time even with a few kids to take care of, wherever they find time?, they tell me that cross stitching is highly therapeutic. I don’t think so, I get stressed out when I have to undo my stitches. Hahaha!

Yiotas XStitch is an online retailer that deals in everything cross stitch but worry not, they have a huge collection of cross stitch freebies that we could download for personal use. Do note that we are not allowed to redistribute these freebies or use them on projects that are meant to be sold.

Free Awesome Cross Stitch Designs & Patterns

When I was in school, I used to start a lot of cross stitch projects. I had to buy my patterns. Well, you know back then, there was no access to the internet so we had to buy everything.

The problem with me was that I did not know the proper way to stitch. Moreover, I was always ready to start a project but pretty impatient to finish up the project, hence it always looked like a rush job towards the end.

Anyway, if you have been looking for free counted cross stitch designs and patterns, check out this collection by Lizzie*Kate that are free to download and use. I tell you, they are awesome.

Cross Stitch Freebie Designs

Earlier this morning, I have the luck to stumble upon the website of Polstitches Designs. Of all the needle craft work, I used to like cross stitch the most. Perhaps it was the easiest for me to do but even so, I know that my stitches were wrong but I didn’t care. As long as the picture that I was cross stitching appeared on the front, I was very happy.

One problem back then was that whenever I ran out of a colour thread, I would substitute it with another thread of similar shade. I know, I spoilt the picture but I was just a kid. LOL

If you are looking for free cross stitch designs, Polstitches Designs has a good selection for you to download. I do not know how complete these freebie packs are, if they come with a printable chart and thread numbers but it’s worth checking out.
