Description
This is the pattern for [link]This is an excellent pattern for a beginner, because it uses only whole crosses, except in the needle.
I used 2 strands of black to outline Fella.
I used 1 strand of black to outline the needle and DA Stitches.
I used 4 strands of black for the DA logo on Fella's belly.
I use 2 strands of 796 to outline the blue thread.
I filled the needle with half crosses (lower right to upper left) of DMC 318.
I will post a few scrap that will allow some variations to the above pattern, eventually.
The pattern was drawn originally on 10x10 graph paper and then entered square by square into PC Stitch. The consumer version of PC Stitch (Spanish accent, "a-which I have") does not support .jpg exports. In order to get the .jpg file you see above, I viewed my PCStitch pattern at 400 percent, printed the screen multiple times, pasted the screen prints into Paint Shop Pro 8, and manually manipulated the multiple images into one final copy. Say that 3 times fast
If you would like the original PC Stitch pattern file, note me.
If you stitch him, please post him so I can see, and link back to the pattern, so others may find it.

Enjoy him!

Thanks!
As for picking the hobby back up, this is a good piece to renew your devotion to cross stitch. It is an easy pattern, and it stitches up really fast.
Many years ago, I decided that I was no good at cross stitch, because I made so many mistakes, and constantly had to rip stuff out. Turns out, that that is normal. I wasn't making any more mistakes than anyone else. So if it was the frustration factor that made you quit, maybe you should try again?
All my best!

Nice! I've got a few unfinished cross stitch projects from years and years ago. I miss those days.

I once joined a group called UFO'S, because of all our cross stitching "UnFinished Objects!" I know how you feel.
