I came across this complete Tarot deck all charted out. I'm not sure if it was posted before or if this is the right forum to post it in. I love this and am starting on the green man (of course) as the fool right now. It's the complete deck charted out in cross stitch for those that love to do needlework of that type.
Enjoy!

Thank you Lewen for the site, I have added it to my favourites to print out later. My other passion is needlework, and I have completed a 'Hermit' my best loved card. That was before I joined AT mind you- wish I could stitch and type at the same time. Regards Rosanne

Though I don't cross stitch I do embroidery and crewel, that's a great link. Later this year as a gift for a friend I want to embroider a couple of spread clothes with card lay out etc.

I had found this site when looking for embroidery designs a while back, and saved it for a future date. However, I think I may have to wait for retirement before I have time to do any of them. Lewen I hope that you post the finished product, maybe I will spur me on to find some time for cross stitch again.

That sounds very wonderful...I wonder who else embroiders/cross stich cloths for card reading?

you know, speaking of spread cloths, I love that idea...the wheels are turning in my head now. I have designed one that I want to do, it's blackwork on linen with acorns and oak leaves all along the edges. Now I'm inspired to do some more with this...I'm interested in who else does spread cloths like this....*claps hands excitedly* I've got another project to add to my list! Y'all are great inspiration!
Oh yeah, I've added another deck to my collection, The Robin Wood....I really love this forum!!! LOL...

Bit too simple for my taste, I'm afraid! I like my cross-stitch to be more challenging. I've always meant to chart my favourite Queen of Pents (from the Davis Celtic deck) - must get around to it someday!
BTW, there's a much nicer Green Man in blackwork that you can download from the designer. I found him while searching for 'blackwork' on eBay, so he should be easy to track down.

I've never across anyone else, it nice that there are other people out there. The blackwork sounds wonderful! I'd like to see some redwork too.

I agree with you tabby cat.
I recently switched from needlepoint to cross stitch because needlepoint was just too expensive. I'd love some cross stitch based on Robert Place's work.
