What People Are Saying

Easy to follow pattern, good colour choices. It’s very cute!

Julia

I was looking for a cute and small font, and this was perfect! I've already used it on two different pieces. The additions included in the add-on were helpful too.

Mari

Very easy pattern to follow. It also works well with pattern keeper!

Stephanie

I love the way this is charted with the little dots connecting the backstitch. Best formatted pattern I’ve seen yet.

Amanda

Easy to download and print out very clear charts. I love that there was an example using the font in a stitch to see the look. Two thumbs up!

Ellen

I love this font. The pattern is easy to follow and looks amazing once done. Especially on black aida!

Jennifer
