Here's looking at you, 2026. Looking at you reeeeal hard, expecting you to do better than your predecessor. Pattern: Afera Handmade #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky

Trying to scrounge some festive joy, with help from this jolly little squirrel designed by @pigeoncoopdesigns. (Had to replace the lovely natural color palette recommended in the pattern with jewel tones to match my purposefully tacky holiday decorations.) #embroidery #stitchsky #crossstitch

A cozy, bookish, slightly witchy piece, perfect for the book nook/herb drying wall in my house 🌙 Pattern: Mama Witch Xstitch #embroidery #stitchsky #crossstitch

Another BZ Creations finish! This one was a must-stitch for me, since it references a beloved character and is also the shortest way to summarize my gender experience 💜🤍💚 #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky #lotr

These days, it’s hard AF to keep believing and keep pretending, but we’re still out here trying -- the lovers, the dreamers, and me. Pattern: BZ Creations. #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky #muppets

It’s Pride weekend in my city, and eternal “just let trans people live FFS” day for me & mine. Here’s one more pattern from Dee’s Twenty Stitches. #embroidery #crossstitch #stitchsky

I was itching for some more blackwork, and this design by The Urban Stitches offered the perfect chance to use this variegated Cosmo floss. #crossstitch #blackwork #embroidery #stitchsky

Many months after the auction closed, here’s the final set of my garter commissions from the OFMD Craft Fair. Sueded silk with a woodland scene + antlers to illustrate a silly pun inspired by a historical poesy ring. Close-up below, because I’m pretty proud of my tiny hart. #embroidery #stitchsky

More garter commissions! Velvet ribbon, hellebore, and Icelandic poppy, with a steamy (for the time period) motto from a poesy ring. Close-ups below for fiber freaks who wanna ogle some tiny thread painting. (Cross-posted from my fandom account.) #embroidery #stitchsky

Did you know that getting called a crybaby as a neurodivergent child will mess you up so much that your therapist encourages you to make weird art about it decades later? True story. (Photography, watercolor, cotton, and beads.) #fiberart #embroidery #stitchsky

The penultimate design phase for the final set of commissioned garters from the OFMD Craft Fair. (Text blurred for more of a reveal once I’ve actually stitched them.) Cross-posted from my fandom account. #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky

A new patch for my swim gear bag! From a pattern by @badstitch.bsky.social. I tried a different finishing/edging technique, and while it looks a little wonky, I think that only adds to the charm. #crossstitch #embroidery #needlework #stitchsky

trans people will always exist (laudatory) trans people will always exist (threatening) trans people will always exist (factual)

Another finish from the Let’s Make A Statement series by Dee’s Twenty Stitches. Happy Pride Month, keep fighting for a world in which this statement is implicitly understood and respected. #embroidery #crossstitch #stitchsky

Got this far as of last night. It will soon be time to take it off the hoop for completion of this square. Improvisational hand stitched modular #FiberArt #SciArt - one piece of a NeuroArt piece

Here's a handy 🧵 of my embroidery finishes!

Another finish from Dee’s Twenty Stitches “Let's Make A Statement” series. Stitched with love, rage, queer resolve, and cotton floss on hand-painted aida. From 2.10.25. #crossstitch #embroidery #stitchsky #needlework #queer

New pattern! 📚👻 The Midnight Book Cart cross stitch pattern is now available in my shop! I finished this one as a book sleeve and love how it turned out! hauntedframes.etsy.com/listing/4309... #xstitch #stitchsky

This original goldenrod piece uses shimmery gouache & gold floss for highlights. It's inspired by 2 brilliant humans who love me enough to forage goldenrod & turn it into tincture to help w/ my intractable allergy migraines in ragweed season. #embroidery #stitchsky #needlework

My Etsy store is back up! Check it out! gabbykashart.etsy.com

Custom garter commissions from the OFMD Craft Fair! The lovely donor wanted a set inspired by a certain ineffable duo 😇😈. Stitching all those teeny tiny feathers and scales took awhile; worth it, though. (Cross-posting from my fandom account.) #embroidery #stitchsky #needlework #goodomens

I started these wintry foxes in September 2024, but didn’t finish them until March 2025 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I still like the frosty vibes of the pastels with the gray aida. Pattern: XCrossStitchPatternX. From 3.19.25. #crossstitch #stitchsky #needlework #embroidery #foxes

Stitched this pattern by Heretic Designs for a friend who's doing her best despite a workplace where this advice is ignored. I used unbranded variegated floss from the reuse center, because why NOT bring some candypop flair to everyday resistance? #crossstitch #stitchsky #needlework #embroidery

Forgot to cross-post this from my fandom account! A cross-stitch pillowcase from the local reuse center + a pattern by @darcylindbergh.bsky.social from the OFMD Craft Fair = fiber art joy for this angry queer pirate fan. From 4.24.25. #crossstitch #stitchsky #needlework #embroidery

When so much is happening to provoke fear & distress, I'm trying VERY hard to avoid the bottomless pit of worry. When there's nothing practical I can do, making stuff helps. Every wonky satin stitch on this pattern by BZ Creations helped my nervous system stay regulated. From 3.9.25. #embroidery

Support that’s contingent upon spending power or respectability isn’t actually support. Corporations have never loved us and never will. Pattern: Dee’s Twenty Stitches #crossstitch #embroidery #stitching #queerliberation #needlework

Time to start using this account! I'm going to post recent finishes as I complete them, and also repost my back catalog from IG bit by bit. Cool? Cool.
