FREE Bernie Sanders Cross Stitch Pattern

Well, the Bernie Sanders memes this week have been cracking me up non-stop, so I knew I had to make a cross stitch pattern from it. ‘MERICA!

The pattern will be about 12×20 inches on a 14 count and uses all full X stitches.

You can download a copy of the chart here:

Be sure to visit my eBay shop too, for thousands of handmade cross stitch patterns and my YouTube channel for tips on getting started, faster stitching techniques, and all things crafty!

Happy stitching, my craft-loving friends, and enjoy!

Freebie Friday – It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Krampus

Krampus Pattern by Bella Stitchery

Happy Friday! Every week I post a free pattern download. They’re available for 24 hours. After that, you can find them in my Etsy or eBay shop.

For those of you not in the know, the Krampus is a hideous anti-Santa from the old Germanic tradition. Kids misbehaving? Don’t threaten them with a boring old lump of coal; threaten them with a manacled, goat-faced demon who sneaks in at night and whips them with birch branches!

(Because Germany)

Even more (hilariously) messed up, young men have been known to dress up as the Krampus on December 5th (the eve of Saint Nicholas Day on many church calendars), and roam the streets frightening children with rusty chains and bells. Krampus is featured on holiday greeting cards called Krampuskarten.

(Because that’s what you want to see when you open an envelope on Christmas eve, right?)

This piece is 224×311 stitches, or approximately 12.5×17 inches on an 18 count fabric.

Enjoy, and happy stitching!
