Cross Ornament Free Pattern

 Cross Ornament Free Pattern 

It’s Easter week, and for me, as a Christian, this is everything. “The Cross” represents everything.  I wanted a quick and easy project to signify and represent this week — “Cross Ornaments.”

I created an Ad-Free, PDF pattern for you all.  I hope you enjoy this pattern and take the time to meditate on what the cross represents.  Click on the below link for the free pattern:
