The free Whimsy Four Pattern will be a great weekend (or several weekend) project for those of you who enjoy stitching abstract motifs. It is inspired by a graphic created by Sue Chastain, About.com Guide to Graphics Software.

For this project, I tried out Caron Collection Wildflowers floss. I still need to stitch the border. I had to order some floss and this project got side-tracked as a result. I stitched the design over one thread on 25-count evenweave fabric. I didn't use the floss colors I'd initially intended to because I wanted to try out the Wildflowers floss.

You may use the floss and fabric of your choice for the project. It will work just as well on Aida as it does on evenweave because it is whole cross stitch only.

Connie, you find cross-stitch charts in everything!! These remind me of Celtic knots, only more…whimsical.
