Extra Super Cheap Cross Stitch Pattern for fans of the X-files

Lately I've become obsessed with Cross Stitching.  I used to cross stitch all the time when I was a kid but pretty much abandoned it as I grew up mainly because I hated the design options.  I hate the country style stuff and teddy bears and although I like flowers, hate floral prints and most cross stitching patterns fit into these categories.
I made this one in college...

I have no idea what sparked me to try it, but I decided that I'd try my hand at making my own cross stitch patterns so I could stitch something I actually like.  The first one came out great and I've gone nuts!  I've drafted up about a dozen patterns and have so many ideas for more.  I've only had time to stitch one of them so far and I'm about 3/4 of the way through a second one.  Here is the first (excuse the fact that it is wrinkly and isn't framed yet) ..........

I don't have a bunch of finished projects to show, but that has never stopped me from sharing!  So here are a few patterns that I have created so far....



I've posted a few up for sale on eBay, but I am so excited to share these that I'm offering up my first design for crazy super cheap. Only a buck.  This one...

If you liked the X-files or UFOs, and you like to cross stitch and you have a dollar, click the button below.  The finished design will be just under 5"x7" if you use 14 count aida cloth.  It uses 15 colors and the DMC color chart is included with the pattern.

7/10/14 UPDATE:  I have removed the offer for the cheap pattern.  I gave out way more of these at a buck than I ever intended because I kept forgetting to come back and shut this post down.   Sorry.... but the deal is over so if you'd like to purchase a pattern, they are still pretty cheap at only $4.99  in my Etsy store.
