Heres my keep calm and cross stitch design, I decided on pink colours for this one as it best fits me :)

Ive actually changed the S so its upside down to the chart, they looked quite wrong to me, heres the pic anyway so you can see what I mean, maybe?

I like it a lot! :applesauce: In my case the words would read "Cross Stitch and Keep Calm" as stitching does soothe me when I'm upset.

Looking good!

I see what you mean about the 's' and I would probably have done the same.

Well....I was going to agree with you about the "s" and compliment you on making it better, but after reading through completely, I think Dean is probably right. HARUMPH! :lol: Good catch. It does look better. I hate trying to lay out & stitch an "s". The one I used on the OES bracelet looked fine on graph paper, but looked like a five when stitched.
