Alphabet Blocks A & B- Cross-stitch Pattern by Mojo Stitches

Whether you use these as pincushions, or a way to spell out a name, or your favourite word on a bookshelf, these Alphabet Blocks are such fun to make. Each block has and upper- and lower-case letter, as well as a range of appropriate motifs: ants, aardvarks, agapanthus, atlas moths, anchors and apples; balloons, blue-bells, blue carpenter bees, butterflies, buttons, bobbins and bows!

Stitch count of 105w x 140h and mainly uses full crosses over two. There are some backstitches and satin stitch. In my model, I used two strands of floss over two threads of linen (unless specified). It is suitable for beginners to advanced stitchers, and can be stitched on Aida, linen or evenweave.
