I bought some evenweave a few months ago and finally decided to try it. I know you’re supposed to “stitch over 2” with this stuff but that seemed like it would still end up just looking like 14 ct aida so I decided to try this instead lol...

This one is from the film Beetlejuice! I may still add some gold highlights to it but I haven’t made up my mind yet lol

That’s the final boss from Super Metroid for those who may not know :)

I liked it so much I actually got 2 of them lol

The Handbook for the Recently Deceased is taking a little longer than I thought, but it’s going well so far! I just have to finish up the guys jacket and add the text!

For some reason the person who made the pattern decided the letter D must be in this four different ways for the key. This one was very tricky regardless and I can’t wait to give it to my mother.

Not even a knockoff or anything, an actual Lowery! Like the real fancy stitchers have! 😮...

Hi everyone! First off thank you all for sharing your amazing work here. I’ve been popping in here for a few weeks now and I’m happy to say you’re all the reason today I’ve got my first kit. I’d tried cross-stitching (very basic stuff though) as a kid but now I can feel the calling is strong. I’m very excited to...

This one is the cover of the “Handbook for the Recently Deceased” from Beetlejuice! I missed a row and had to frog a bunch of the blue and redo it, but now that I’ve got everything lined up again I hope to finish this one by next week!

Finishing up my second Lebowski piece! I just need to make a border for it now!

I want to put a cross stitch pattern on soft plastic. My plan is to just drill a bunch of tiny holes in it to make it sort of like aida cloth, but I wondered if anyone else here has tried this before or has any tips?

This is one of the first kits I got really excited about and I finally grabbed it on Black Friday. I’ve never done buttonhole stitch and it’s a lot of fun now that I have the hang of it. It’s a party at my house, as you can see.

I decided to make some fun small stuff before I get back to my big project. This is the first one that I just finished!

Kind of a late post since I’ve been sick for the last couple of weeks, but here are the three patterns I made and gave out as presents this year! Hope everyone had a great Christmas!

24 colors and 3800 stitches later and this “beginner friendly” pattern is complete lol

Hey guys, a while ago I posted about getting some ideas for an app to help track cross-stitching progress....

I haven’t been on Lemmy too much lately for reasons. But here’s my WIP for this Wednesday. It still doesn’t have a head but even then, when the backstitch time comes, is when it will really ✨ pop ✨

DMC S471. It’s described as “satin” but it looked metallic to me. Either way, this stuff is awful. It frays like crazy leaving granny smith colored green fuzz everywhere. It’s slippery and tries to unravel even after you have it stitched into the pattern. It twists around on itself to the point that it acts like it has...
