Stitchers chart alphabets to put names, initials and dates on samplers, baby gifts and bookmarks. These nine charts give three alphabets on a cross-stitch grid: block capitals, a joined lowercase script, and a sampler with numbers. Each comes as a symbol grid, a grid of drawn crosses, or solid pixel blocks. Type a different word or style and the same grid carries it.

  • initials on a baby gift
  • a name on a sampler
  • a bookmark with dates
  • a numbered sampler

Frequently asked questions

Are these full alphabets?
Yes. Block capitals give A to Z, script gives a to z, and the sampler gives capitals and the numbers zero to nine.
Can I stitch a name with these?
Yes. Each letter is a block on the grid, so you can pick out the letters your name needs.
Which style is easiest to count?
The symbol grid, with one symbol per square and a heavier line every ten squares.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
