Unhappy with the Floss Toss ~ the Woes of a Stitcher
A little over a month ago I finally broke down and bought the supplies for the project that keeps me up at night wanting to stitch it – Gaelic Banner from Dracolair. I’ve been drooling over it for the longest time, having all these mental conversations with myself about whether or not I could tackle […]
Italic Loves Free Cross Stitch Pattern
Who wants a fun little freebie pattern today? I do, I do. I thought you might 😉 ==> Click here to download the free PDF pattern file. There is no floss legend for this pattern, because the idea is to use up all those leftover bits of floss you have or to choose your favorite […]
Stitching Bloggers #8: Your Favorite Project
Welcome back to the bimonthly blog hop! Gosh I missed these, I’m so sorry we had to skip the round on the 1st of this month. There was an issue with the link widget being spammed and I wanted to make sure I would be able to monitor that better and hopefully prevent it in […]
Brushstroke Butterfly Stitched by Prithivya
It makes me very happy to add this butterfly to the gallery here. I almost cried reading Prithivya’s email when she shared this picture with me and told me that this was her first cross stitch project! Have a peek and congratulate her on a job well done:

I made some good progress on Pirate Treasure the past few nights stitching a little at a time. You can see the top of the hidden pirate’s hat being outlined here in the lime green color. (I didn’t realize the lighting was weird on this photo until after I uploaded. I blame the stormy weather.)
Pokemon First Generation Mega Huge Cross Stitch Project
My geek heart swoons when I see projects like this one stitched by Linda over at eponases.com. The design was created by Servotron over at the SpriteStitch community, and yes it is available there if you’re interested in stitching this project yourself.

A few weeks ago on a trip to the grocery store I noticed that they were opening a Michael’s Crafts store in the same plaza just a few doors down. The huge space had been empty for awhile and I was excited to see something crafty and creative going in. It opened over this past […]
Tribal Turtle Stitched by Heavenly Evil
This is another gallery photo that must have gotten lost when we moved servers ages ago and I wanted to get it added back in. It’s one of my favorites.
Happy Dance! Dream is a Wish
Lately I’ve been stitching on bigger projects and suffering from that blah feeling you get when you haven’t celebrated a finish in awhile. I’m sure you can relate to what I mean, that moment you want to finish something, anything at all. So I took a few minutes to dig through my stash and pull […]
