Counted Cross Stitch, Part 2

I did it! After lamenting that I had yet another project idea, I searched online for some patterns to make a simple monogram and boarder. And then I used the grid in PhotoShop as my base and created a cross stitch pattern of a "C" monogram.


I found my very old stash of aida cloth and some floss so I'm all set to start this very small, very simple cross stitch project.

----------
The monogram is the
Traditional Alphabet Sampler PDF free from DMC.
The corner flowers came from
this pattern.
And I designed the other boarder myself.

I use PhotoShop for EVERYTHING! LOL. I only wish it could cook dinner as well.
