Shakespeare's Valentines

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of my favorite plays by Shakespeare. This passage from Act II is spoken by Lysander to Hermia, and it has always stuck out to me. Here I’ve changed one of the words to “stitched”, as it is for cross stitch after all. These little patterns would be perfect to share with that special someone on Valentine’s Day.

Version 1: 67 x 67 stitches, with 4 colors of DMC floss

Version 2: 45 x 49 stitches, with 5 colors of DMC floss
