So far I’ve received 3 answers, and I gotta say, the first responder was right on target with that first image. That’s really close to what I’m wanting, but if anybody knows where or how I can convert this to cross stitch, I’d love some advice. I’ve never tried to get a pattern online before. The second person who answered had some really cool links, too, but I don’t think I’m talented enough to use those pictures, although I did save the links, just because I think they’re awesome! The third answerer, well, I guess he/she just didn’t get it.

Diane Palmer asked:
One heart shaped cookie cutter
One Potato cut in half.
Aida cloth, or your preferred cross stitch fabric
Lots of green cross stitch threads
Green ink pad or acrylic paint. (make sure the surface of the potato is dry)
Press the heart shaped cookie cutter into the potato half, and then cut away the rest of the potato, leaving yourself a heart shaped stamp.
Dip your potato stamp onto a green stamp pad or a light layer of acrylic paint, and stamp it onto your cloth three times forming a clover with the narrow part of the heart at the center. Start with the first one at the top of the clover and the other two on each side of it. so that their narrow ends meet in the center.
You now have a three leaf clover. Now draw the stem and let dry. Cross Stitch your clover in the green of your choice, and you now have a “lucky charm” .
You can incorporate this into any type of picture, you could do a collage of them, or you can do a single one. Hang it in your kitchen for “good luck”.
If you have never done cross stitch, now is a good time to learn. Counted cross stitch is easy to learn, and fun, you can get some great videos that show you hands on. Then start creating your own lucky charm.

stitchingprincess asked:
I love designing my own cross stitch patterns and family and friends think I am very good at it. What should I do now to protect my designs from copywriting, and get them published.? I would like to put together my own website to sell them but am not sure about the legal side of this. All help would be most appreciated

Ms. Vintag E. asked:
I want to do some cross stitching on the back of a large coat collar. How could I go about doing this when the weave in wool is difficult to see? Is there any easier way?

I love the old-fashioned look of the airy, wide-spaced stamped patterns, but I wonder… is it possible to make your own stamped pattern? How could I put a pattern onto my own fabric?
