Those are really nice.....I don't know anything about cross stitching but do you start with a template or is it all "freehand"?

Thanks you two for the comments! I appreciate them.

Thank you! These are usually created using a template called a chart.They look like graph paper and can be designed by hand this way.Many companies nowadays will convert a artist's work using computers.
The charts can be very basic like a old school video game sprite.

They may also be extremely challenging like this 48 paged project.

Love your work, your projects always turn out looking so good. You must have a knack for this type of thread work, I know it takes determination and many hours to finish one of these. One day I will pick one up and try it myself, a little 8 bit pattern to start off easy perhaps... Or a band logo.

Thank you Bert! Maybe I can create a chart for you,someday.It is one of my dreams to become a embroidery designer.

Once again, these are beautiful, they are all so professional looking. If I could collect these I would, colorful and stylish, your work is top notch.
