Free Fox Cross Stitch Pattern

Hi! I’m so glad to be back to share another cute cross stitch pattern. I love this cute little fox that I found on freepik.com. What is freepik anyway? It’s a website that offers free vector images. You can use their images for personal and commercial projects as long as you credit them as the original designer of the graphics and be sure to put a link back to their site to credit them. I really love their animal vectors and I’ll be using them on my next cross stitch patterns. Be sure to register to my site to download my pdf cross stitch patterns and to receieve email updates for more upcoming cross stitch patterns.

Love Birds Free Cross Stitch Pattern

Still looking for the right Valentines Day gift? Try stitching this cute little love birds. This is so easy to make even for beginners. It will only take a few hours of your time. As for me it took me a day to make it while I was taking care of my son. I can only stitch when he’s asleep. I have used a 10 count aida cloth and framed it in a 7″ embroidery hoop. The palette that I used really blended wonderfully and  the result is amazing. The design with the back stitches makes it stand out. The back stitches really help a lot. I think my designing skills is improving. lol.  What do you think of my love birds cross stitch pattern? I hope you find it cute to stitch. Tell me in the comments section below.
