Hello.

I am wanting to find alphabet/number charts similar to the style in the links below.

Would love if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Hello and welcome to the forum from South Carolina! There are a lot of alphabet charting booklets with tons of alphabet designs. It takes time to find the one you want. I have several that I have used over the years and refer back to them. It was easier to find them when there were more LNS around and when the big craft stores had aisles full of cross stitch charts, but taking a look at the covers of different ones might help you spot what you are looking for. I'd check with the larger on-line suppliers. 123Stitch has quite a few. Here is an example and several more like it on the page.

I agree with Carole. There are a gadzillion alphabet cross stitch patterns and booklets that have several font styles in them. The challenge can be finding one that is the number of stitches tall and wide that you want. If you do an online image search for "alphabet cross stitch" you can comb the results to identify the one you want. That font just looks like a plain Times New Roman. Many cross stitch design programs allow you to convert fonts to XS and you have TNR on your computor. You can also commission someone with a program to convert it for you. It would be an easy job.

The PDF available on that page as a handful of alphabets.

Thanks for your comments and tips

I have a number of alphabet pattern books and there are indeed many good alphabets online.

However, most, if not all of the patterns online and in the books are very dated.

I love the more modern look of the fonts I posted and how they are rounded off with back stitching.

I cannot seem to find full alphabets in this style online anywhere.

Anyways, I will keep looking, I'm sure they are there somewhere

Agree 100% about patterns in most books being very dated!
