Well, I’ve finally figured out how to deliver on that promise – without forking out US$30 for better software or digging out our old computer (that can run my older version of the good software) from the jam-packed garage.

I just took a screen shot of the pattern – how easy!
I can’t believe it took me so long to think of this solution… lol

So now, here is the promised Lollygirl cross stitch pattern for you to stitch.

I’ve created a cross stitch pattern based on her face & hairstyle, as a freebie for you to sew.

All I have to do now is put it together into a pdf, so that you can download it.

The name of the design came about because the shape of the hairstyle reminded me of a lolly wrapper, and also because Wren’s other nickname is Lolly.

(and she’s super-cute too)

The free cross stitch pattern will be finished for download, next week!
