These pretty monograms are from a vintage 1954 pattern book of crochet edgings and were originally meant to be filet crochet patterns for trimming sheets. Because filet crochet designs are drawn on a grid they work equally well for cross stitch. Click here for a free pattern with the entire alphabet that you can print out next time you need to add a few letters to a project.
If you'd like to see some examples of vintage monograms for inspiration, you'll find a post all about them here.

The PDF link doesn't work anymore. Could you please post it again?
The link got unlinked when I moved my website files to a new server. It's now fixed. Thanks for letting me know there was a problem.
Link is not working. Would love to have this alphabet. Thanks.
Sorry about that. I moved websites again and lost my links. It's fixed now.
Thank you!
