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!

In my case the words would read "Cross Stitch and Keep Calm" as stitching does soothe me when I'm upset.

FF's look good and the new start is very nice. I see what you mean about the S's looking wrong.

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

Glad a few of you agree lol, I was trying to explain to Dean how I thought they looked wrong but he just kept saying they looked fine, men lol!

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!

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.

Love it especially the colours
