Yes, I have used cross-stitch patterns to create LEGO studs-out mosaic patterns. The ones that have just the large thread diagonal type patterns work best. (The ones with the thin thread outlines are quite tricky to transform into a LEGO pattern.)

I used cross-stitch patterns to create these 2 jaguar faces.
They were both made from the same pattern; I was just trying to see if tan or yellow looked better.

This is a large (144 studs wide X 192 studs tall) mosaic pattern of a King of Hearts made from a cross-stitch pattern.

I’ve found plenty of other cross-stitch patterns online that would work well for studs-out LEGO mosaics.

Has anyone ever used cross-stitch patterns for Lego mosaics? I just grabbed a few of my mother-in-law's books (she isn't using them anymore) and I'm wondering if I should keep them for Lego use or trade them away. Thanks, Paul Sinasohn LUGNET #115 (...) (16 years ago, 25-Feb-09, to lugnet.general)
