Persephone forever 🫶

I’d love to own a home one day, but I keep getting tempted by avocado toast

Anyone else have this soundtrack permanently embedded in their brain? Just me? Okay cool 😄 The good news is you don’t have to steal this cross stitch because it’s a free pattern! Visit my Free Pattern Library if you want some early 2000s anti-piracy stitching in your life. Soundtrack not included.

Legit counting down the days until the next season of The Last of Us drops 👀 I designed and stitched this! The neon green on the grungy grey aida makes my brain happy 💚

One of my all time favourite finishes: Bee Haw by @ansitru.bsky.social 🌈 (SUCH a talented designer, definitely check her patterns out if you haven’t already!) Stitched 2-over-1 on super sparkly 18ct ice blue Aida ✨ I think I might size the hoop down when I frame it for good.

My partner asked to borrow my Cat Skull scissors. I was very confused: “cat skull scissors?” “Yeah! You know, the silver ones, with little designs on it.” — Dear reader, I present to you this picture of my Cat Skull scissors 🤣 [[**guitar scissors courtesy of Sophie @ The Stitchy Ferret]]

Stitched this on 18ct white aida while watching The Last Of Us (which made me take longer than expected to finish because hot damn, that show is so captivating!) This is an original design and I am obsessed with this 80s vapourwave colour palette. Pattern available through the link in my bio 🧟‍♂️

I always start stitching a new pattern from the middle, sometimes with incredible results.

The pattern doesn't call for beads, but SPARKLY MUST OCCUR. Design from @screamingheart.bsky.social, hopefully fully sparkly this week.

All art is political, even art that does not want to be.

If you know, you know

I am an adult who only stitches very serious things.

Playing with glow in the dark thread 👻 This watercolour fabric is so dreamy, I was afraid to stitch anything on it for a long time 😅 Stitched and designed by me! Pattern available here: screamingheartdesign.etsy.com/listing/1590...

Bees? Bees! Designed and stitched by me; pattern link in bio 🖤💛🐝

Started a new backstitching project last night.and am making some good progress. Somehow, this feels very fitting for how the world is going. This Is (Not) Fine by Screaming Heart Design (@screamingheart.bsky.social) #backstitch #ThisIsFine

Finished this gorgeous little scarab beetle on 36ct linen 💜 Pattern designed by @stitchsprout.bsky.social

I made this in 2020 and would never have predicted it would somehow be even MORE relevant five years later 🫠

How old am I? As somebody once said: “old enough to remember dial-up speeds, young enough to rage-quit any website that takes longer than 5 seconds to load”

Turns out you **can** splice two pieces of Aida together if you have a little patience to Frankenstein it 😄

Favourite finish of 2024 💚

Monday vibes in the office

It’s really gonna change your life, Jarvis! Also I gotta show you my collection of needleminders... and did you know that not all scissors are created equal? I think my favourite cloth count is - wait, Jarvis? Jarvis! Where are you going?

2025 is off to... a start.
