Erik's Tip

Cut a quick template from contrasting scrap fabric to make trimming a breeze! The fabric sticks to the piece you are trimming and makes it easy to turn the pieces on the cutting board!

Little Swedish Viking cross stitch project

A Friendly Shout-Out to our Readers in Sweden!

This happy little guy sends merry salutations...to our readers in Sweden and to all of you the world over!

"TJA" is the Swedish expression for what's up! We stitched ours on 14 count white Aida cloth with three strands of DMC floss, then glued the finished piece to the front of a spiral notebook from the office supply store. You can stitch him wherever you like

Little Danish Viking cross stitch project

A friendly Shout-Out to our readers in Denmark!

This friendly little fellow sends happy greetings...not just to our readers in Denmark, but to all of you everywhere...and he is the opening project in our Cross Stitch Category!

"HEJ" is the Danish word for hello and perfect for adorning a blank card...or stitch him on enough fabric, leaving off the word, to turn into a soft-stuffed Christmas tree ornament; this viking was stitched on 14 count Aida fabric with three strands of floss.

**We have updated this chart with new design software! The new chart has easier to read symbols and grid lines!**
