Patriotic pattern that works up quickly!
This is a beautiful pattern. It was published in Just Cross Stitch Magazine, August, 2020. I worked on it a little last summer, then put it away for fall, and have just picked it back up again. The only difference between the original and this, is that this is shown on white Aida (which I don’t like as much) and in the August 2020 version it was stitched on a light blue linen, which is what I am using. Also in the original, the backstitch and straight stitches were done in white and here it is done in blue, which I like much better! I also switched to an over-dyed floss for the 3 shades of red, so that I did not have to change floss every few stitches.
