Can somebody give me some specific websites that offer free cross stitch bookmark charts?

Question

I am going to try to make a cross stitch bookmark. I wonder if it can be laminated. I hope there are cross stitch experts who will help me.

Answer 1

When you purchase a prefinished bookmark, there's usually a chart on the back you can use. Also, check these websites:

http://crossstitch.about.com/od/bookmarkdesigns/Free_Cross_Stitch_Patterns_Bookmarks.htm (I've made some from Dumani Designs)

Instead of laminating, consider using bookmark sleeves, such as these:

Answer 2

Coats and Clark offers a few patterns there that are free. Also DMC offers a few free patterns. I have even typed in free cross stitch patterns on Google and came up with a number of pattern sites. As with any other make sure that the patterns are free before trying to download them.

freepatterns.com (requires registration but is free)

Hope these sites work for you. As for laminating I never have but I don't see why you couldn't.
