My experiments with machine cross stitch are coming out very well. Currently I am working on designs with repeating motifs so I can master the design quickly. I'm using one color & sticking with a few repeats until I decide upon a real project. I'm using a piece of linen scrap fabric. I decided to use some vivid thread colors because I know I can always pop these samples into a crazy quilt somewhere. All of the samples are in the 4-5" range.
I especially like this one.
Sometimes the thread isn't perfectly aligned. I'm unsure why that happens but I'm not too concerned. Galloping by on a fast horse it looks good to me. These pictures are enlarged & at very close range.
This is just darling! I could see a length of this somewhere. It was very easy to graph. That's the beauty of repeating elements.

These are so nice. I don’t see misalignments, I think cross stitch is always charming and sometimes a little rustic.
