Tattoo style dragons cross stitch design

Tattoo style dragons cross stitch design

This is a cross stitch design based on tattoo/ tribal style dragon drawings. Theres a few little dragons here so you can pick your favourite and put it in a card or gift. This design actually started life as a motif for a baby sampler but perhaps wisely the babies mum asked for something a little more suited to a babies room than big black dragons. Perhaps when the boy gets a bit older I'll sew it for him.

Don't be limited to black with these simple dragons though, they will look great in a variety of colours. If you are feeling particularly fancy with it you could use metallic threads for some extra shine.

This is a cross stitch design of Trixie the Great and Powerful while she is showing off in her grand hat and cape.

Trixie first appears in the Boast busters episode where she makes fun of and tries to outdo Twilight Sparkle with her stage magic. Its such a great episode and shows just how much patience Twilight can have sometimes.

Golden Harvest/ Carrot Top cross stitch design

Black	Eyes	310	403
White	Eyes	5200	1
Yellow	Main body colour	3078	292

This design was drawn originally with Anchor colours in my cross stitch design program. Use Anchor threads to get the closest match to the picture. I used a conversion chart to get the DMC numbers.

Please let me know if any colours are off and I will amend them in the chart.

This a side character from My little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Her name is Golden Harvest according to the card that comes with her mini blind bag model. I drew this character since she is one of my favourite models currently sitting on my computer desk. My actual favourite model is Lucky Dreams but I have not yet spotted her in the show. I'll keep an eye out and see if she shows up. :)
Though before the blind bag model fans decided to call her Carrot Top as it looks like her super special talent is to do with farming (hence the carrot cutie mark) and also due to her striking orange hair.

The Legendary Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh cross stitch design

This is a Cross stitch design of The Legendary Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh from Monty Python and the Holy grail.
This Film is definately one of the films that everyone must see. Its always in the top of best film ever lists. It is certainly one of my favourites too!

This design is big enough for a decent sized cushion. Perhaps surround the aida with some dark fabric to go with the blacks, greens and browns in the design.

The Legendary Black Beast of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh and Monty Python and the Holy grail is made by Python pictures.

Big update!

Hello everyone,
Looks like this post missed out on my giant update a while ago where I added thread numbers to everything I could on this blog. So a big thank you to my anonymous commenter for bringing this to my attention.
I've left the older version up in case anyone is working on it. However when I went to grab the thread numbers from the original file I found that I had accidentally used a couple of similar shades when one would do. So I cut out instances of colours which were too similar but apart from that the design is mostly the same.
I also made up a symbol version of the design for ease of following the design. Please scroll down below and take a peek. I havn't done many symbol charts so if you have any feedback for me please feel free to let me know. :)
