X is for the Elusive Letter X

Continuing the ABC Archive series here on Needle ‘n Thread just got really hard.

It’s not easy to come up with an X as an embroidery topic, that’s for sure!

I could have done x-stitch (abbreviating cross-stitch), but I kind of felt like that was cheating. So you know what I did?

I went to the search page here on Needle ‘n Thread, and I typed in the letter X to see what the search engine would spit out. And it spit out a lot of X’s!

Way back in the day, when Needle ‘n Thread was just a wee baby and I published a blog post every single day, I ran several series offering free monogram alphabets, one letter at a time.

From knotty Celtic-style X’s to lots of floral X’s, you’ll find plenty of X’s is on those early monogram alphabets!

The nice thing is, if you’re not looking specifically for an X, you can find all of these styles of alphabets available for free here, and download the letters you really want to use!

I know, I know. This is such a slothful way to approach X in the ABC Archive Series.

But what can one do?! It’s an X, after all!
