Hello everyone

This is the first design of a new series of Zodiac themed cross stitch designs. This is designed to be a good size for a large card. The designs use only a few colours of embroidery thread and whole stitches only so while the background design may need a little more counting these will be great for a beginner to try to stretch themselves on their cross stitching skills. 

This months design is Capricorn
Capricorn's birth dates:  December 22 - January 19
Capricorn is an Earth sign so I represented this with a mountain motif and green/ brown colours. The mountains help to symbolize how people in Earth star signs are said to be dependable and stable. The colours convey the Earth signs tendency to be grounded. After reading up on the qualities typically shown in an Earth sign it seems that they will make good friends with the only commonly noted weakness being a tendency for greed so just keep the cookie jar away from those earth signs huh?

Keep coming back over the year as I will be adding more Zodiac signs hopefully in time to Stitch it for their birthdays. This one is cutting it a little fine because Christmas is proving so hectic.

Anyway much love and happy stitching
