The J and W have been added (at least, I think the letter in the original was an I, so I made a J to match). The spacing of the white dots and the top left flourishes on most of the letters are weirdly inconsistent.</p>

      <title><![CDATA[“Sajou 601 large” by darkgreen_orange]]></title>
      <description><![CDATA[<img src="https://render.fontstruct.com/renderer/render?v=6a70a485&id=1056113&w=1600&h=150&f=0&a=left&t=AaBbCc%2BHandgloves%2B123"/><br/>Gorgeous, isn't it? This is a reproduction of a cross-stitch pattern from the French series of embroidery books "Maison Sajou". It dates to around the turn of the 20th century. After seeing such a beautiful, ornate pattern, I just had to convert this one to a font, a process that took several months.

The design is made of intricate flower buds, stems, leaves, and check patterns. The design of the letters is similar throughout the pattern, however no two letters have exactly the same layout (for example, flower buds are facing a slightly different angle). Each letter is intertwined with a branch that winds its way up the letter, and features representations of leaflets and berries.

The 'I' and 'W' were not present in the original design. 'J' doubles as 'I' and 'W' is a rotated 'M'. While I would love to make up numerals based on the current letters, it would be a daunting task as each letter is about a 100x100 size grid. Anyone is welcome to clone this font and give it a shot.

This pattern was found on http://patternmakercharts.blogspot.com/2010/11/sajou-no-601.html . There are lots of Sajou and other embroidery patterns there.]]></description>

It dates to around the turn of the 20th century. Each letter features a three-pronged leaf and curly serifs.

The 'I' and 'W' were not present in the original design so I modified them based on 'J' and 'M'. The pattern was found on http://patternmakercharts.blogspot.com/2010/05/sajou-no-656.html]]></description>
