Blog on cross stitching

I found great blog on cross stitch. A lot of pictures, charts, mostly in nice combination of red and white. List of freebies is here.
Some of those designs could be used for knitting too.
Btw. blog is written in French, but I donot think, that we need to understand language for this type of embroidery.

Finaly I took picture of TIF January.
Colours are not precisely same as on Sharon´s colour scheme, because I wanted to use silk and I didnot found exact colours in my fabrics. Lines are created by knitting yarn sewn on fabric with machine.
