Free Cross Stitch Pattern Circus Poster
Original Image
Origin of Poster
Another new cross stitch pattern. This one is from a vintage circus poster of Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus. This two independent circuses joined up together around 1917, so this poster is probably from the 1930's.
Chart Dimensions
This chart turned out pretty well, but I should have outlined the elephant's eye. I just noticed that , so you might want to back stitch the eye. It isn't strictly necessary, but the pattern would look a little better.
Anyway, just right click image to save to your computer.
The stitch count is 147 wide by 108 high, I set it up for 14 count white AIDA, but whatever you think looks best. Off-white or natural might also work very well. The pattern uses 22 DMC colors.
