We are enormously fortunate to be the recipients of the talents and energy of gifted textile artist and designer Steve Rousseau from Montreal. (Some of you may already know Steve for his dedicated conversion of Needleprint charts and the Needleprint Ackworth School Pattern Book for MacStitch users from which he has culled these motifs with full agreement.) He has given us one of his designs based upon the Quaker motifs for you to work as a cushion 254 stitches wide by 257 stitches tall and he is giving it to you as a free download. Just click here to download the PDF.You are a kind heart, Steve Rousseau, and so say all of us!
PS Look out next week for a very special Holiday present from Steve.

How beautiful! I love the colours and the motifs within the pattern outline...Thank you very much!
A wonderful idea. Take other people's motifs and rearrange them. Not for me, but gee thanks. I love to see people looking foolish Jackie.
Dear Sue Jeffrey (Affenage), Chester County, PA - can you clarify your comments please - I am at a loss to understand you. Jacqueline
Thank you for this pattern Jacqueline and Stven.
One question though; short of counting out the number of stitshes myself, how can I determine the stitch count and corresponding size of this piece?
Thanks for asking this - I'll ask Steve and post the reply.
Beautiful! Thank you!
I think this is a spectacular use of traditional patterns in a modern design. Thanks so much for this gift and for all your work on this great site.
This is a very beautiful pattern and it is really very nice of Mr Rousseau to share this. Thanks a lot, Jacqueline, for making this possible.
