I’ve been working on this chevron design off and on, it’s part of a series of monogram patterns that I’m working on charting to be released this year (there are bookmarks, ornaments, and in-the-hoop designs) This one is almost ready and I really like how the chevrons come out doing one X at a time using a hand dyed thread (The thread I’m using here is Sharrin’s Peach from Ship’s Manor)

I really love the colors she used when she stitched this bookmark for her daughter, it’s so fun and cheerful! One of the best things about this pattern is that you choose your own colors for it, I didn’t even chart suggestions, so it’s more your pattern than my pattern. Enjoy!

Happy Stitching!
