Cross stitch pattern from Kooler Design Studio featuring George Bennard's hymn "The Old Rugged Cross", accented by a wooden cross in front of a rising sun.
THE OLD RUGGED CROSS
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suff'ring and shame;
And I love that old cross
Where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
Til my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
Stitch count 114w x 154h. Finished size on 28 count fabric over 2 threads 8-1/8" X 11"
Reviews From CustomersWho Purchased This Item
from on 11/02/2022 - A Heartwarming Pattern. This pattern is designed by Barbara Baatz Hillman. I have stitched both of her Old Rugged Cross designs and I enjoyed them both, even though I stitched the other one back in 1997. I did not use three strands of floss on this one as advised. I did so on the first one and hated it. This pattern is beautiful and colourful and the picture of the old rugged cross standing alone on the hillside cuts me to my heart, as do the lyrics. The colours are absolutely beautiful and the design is relatively easy to stitch....although trying to do French Knots on the Cashel Linen was a bit of a chore, as the knots kept on slipping through the holes in the fabric. I have never had that problem with French Knots before, but the Cashel Linen is quite loosely woven, so the knots kept on slipping through to the back of the work in certain places. I had to put my needle through the hole and yank it back to the front on more than one occasion. I hope all who stitch this work will enjoy it as much as I did. I wish I could add a photo of the finished work here as the picture on the site does not do it justice.
