Cross Stitch Alpha freebie!

I've always enjoyed doing counted cross stitch, and have seen a few different examples in digital scrapbooking. But as usual, I wanted to experiment with my own version of stitches and cloth. So I spent the last few months creating various versions of an X stitch, as well as a back stitch, trying to get them to look at least semi-realistic, until I finally came up with something I liked. I wanted to do an alpha, but it was difficult to decide what kind of background pattern to use. There aren't really any commercial-use cross stitch patterns, so I came up with my own design!

The end result is another HUGE alpha! I have broken them down in sets. Each set is one color, and contains 67 .jpg files (A through Z in both upper and lower case, 0 through 9, and a few misc. characters).

The Blue alpha can be downloaded here.

The Green alpha can be downloaded here.

The Peach alpha can be downloaded here.

The Pink alpha can be downloaded here.

The Purple alpha can be downloaded here.

The Turquoise alpha can be downloaded here.

The Yellow alpha can be downloaded here.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like my new alpha, and can use it in some way.
