Free Pattern Friday: Dragon Dreams

Okay, so Valentine's is over, so let's get away from the lovey stuff for today's free cross stitch pattern, all right? 

Today's post does feature two things I love though: fantasy patterns and Joan Elliott. I just love the amount of detail Joan puts into her designs, and the golds, greens, and purples in this one are just perfect. The model here shows it finished off as a card, but I've also seen someone do it as a small drawstring bag, which was also a very neat project to see.

This amazing dragon design was originally published (I believe) in Cross Stitch Gold Magazine.  Luckily, the magazine editor has made it available as a free download on their website, so you can pick it up even if you don't have the back issue around.  Head over there (creating a free account is required for download) to get the PDF of this free cross stitch pattern.

Happy stitching!
