The free chart for Jun 2026 is Sweetly Sayin’: 4th of July. This festive little design is packed with patriotic charm featuring classic Americana motifs, waving flags, stars, stripes, and a celebration of freedom that’s perfect for your summer stitching.
The stitch count is 72x62 and the model was stitched on 32 Taupe, Lugana using Color and Cotton floss. I chose a piece of 16ct Faline aida by Color and Cotton. DMC 642 is the closest color to the fabric. I am using Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe floss: Long May It Wave (red), Betsy Ross (blue) and Anchor white. I added Antique Gold to the mix because the white lettering did not show up well enough for me. The finished size on 16ct will be 4 5/8 x 3 7/8.
