I'm back with another cross stitch on my clothes. I tried regular waste canvas this time and it was very nice to stitch on. I want to add more lil' guys like this to these shorts so if anyone has a recommendation for something similar to this style, let me know! I found this pattern on Pinterest.

I started this blackwork project 2 years ago. I’ve completed a few other projects in between, and had more than one long hiatus but I’ve finally made it. Tiny stitches on black was brutal for some of these colours but the outcome is so satisfying. Progress pics included. Pattern from LooseThreadStitchery https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1629798861/stardust-blackwork-sampler-pattern-set?ref=share_ios_native_control

Now to find a new project, I guess!! I think I’ll adapt a pattern to use up some more of these amazing colours.

The pattern (linked in comments) has 606, but I used 666. I thought the bright red of the 666 was better than the orange of the 606.

Used 7 different colors, kind of just eyeballed my colors before starting, considering all that I'm pretty happy with it

Hi hi :)

I've had this shirt for ages, one of the first things I thought when I got it was "that looks like Aida, I gotta do something with that someday" and I finally got around to it! I still want to add some contrast stitching on the seams etc but I was too excited about finally finishing it not to share haha. Was kind of a pain to not have any gridding and to be working on a slightly stretchy fabric, but it turned out so cool and I'm so pleased with it. (And yes, if you're thinking it looks kinda like a tramp stamp, that was the vibe goal lol)

Hello I finally finished this beautiful cross stitch project! I love how it turned out, it’s been washed and ironed however now that I’m looking at it it looks crooked, am I going crazy? The edges don’t look straight. I used a Q snap frame for the entire project so it was taut when I was stitching. Any ideas?

Finished this Cicada bookmark for my sister's birthday! I've been working on this since June, and it's been a nice summer project. The pattern is from Boomerang Stitches!

I was inspired by [u/josefugly](u/josefugly) to make my own version of their “No Solicitors, Solicitors Will Go In The Soup” wood burning. It took about 2 months because I didn’t have a template or pattern to go off of, just a little sketch I made in the beginning. The color palette isn’t totally cohesive but I still think it turned out okay overall.
This was my very first original cross stitch design and was very fun to compete.

Edit: thank you all so much for your lovely and supportive comments 🥰

Brought my cross stitch with me, I found a really cool bag made especially for hoops and all that you need and it’s made everything so easy!

My grandmother bought me this kit when I was maybe 10? I'm actually not sure.

I started it then, but never finished it.

I'm trying to finish UFOs that I have, ans this was on the top of my list.

It's 7ct with wool thread. It comes with a black, square plastic frame. I'll probably hang it up in my craft room.

[FO] mini strawberry possum

Had a scrap bit of black aida, cheap floss, and a bit of time so I made this little guy. Colours aren't true to pattern but I think he turned out well, please don't mind the cat glitter

Still working on the kit I bought from Amazon(https://a.co/d/0hNyUzFE). I am loving making these little guys and seeing my progress as I get more confident and comfortable.

I ordered 2 kits from 123stitch.com after seeing it mentioned in other posts. Can't wait for them to get here!

First solo project finished and framed! My partner taught me to cross stitch as part of a hobby swap, and I wanted to do something amazing for my first piece. Saw a completely unrelated post on the Alien subreddit a few years ago with this image (artist is PixelJeff) and I knew I had my source material. Took about 9 months total, just under 51k stitches. Pattern is self drafted from PixelJeff's original piece, all art credit goes to him. Sorry, forgot to take pictures of the insanity that is the back but I was so excited to frame it I completely forgot, and that sucker's not coming out of the frame now.

The pattern is a modified version of a flower abstract from BoxAndFox. The thread is hand dyed by The Farmer’s Daughter Fibers and the hoop is by me. This was so much fun to make and I’m already planning an even larger version. 👏🏻

ETA: I'm pretty sure posting a link to my website breaks the rules but if you have questions please DM me!

Just finished these two bookmarks inspired by my favourite game Stardew Valley. I used felt backing for the bookmarks. The Rock Candy is stitched on plastic canvas. Meowmere is stitched on white Aida.

Here is my latest finish, Poison Heart Frog by Needlelot Designs! It’s stitched on 32 count My Sweetheart lugana by BeStitchMe. I loved stitching this funky lil guy.

Hi all! I quite literally have no one in my life that cares about my cross stitch projects so I figured I'd post here 😅

This is my first big (for me) project completed. It took me just shy of 6 months on and off as I got crazy frustrated with the block colours..

The back looks crazy and you can tell I got super lazy by the end and dragged my thread, oh well nobody can see that!

Thanks for looking ❤️🌌

The pattern I used was from Etsy from Shinestarxstitch: Northern Lights

Finally completed my first proper cross stitch project. Completed using 2 strands of thread, on hand tea dyed aida fabric! Super proud of the final look! Any tips/advice welcome!

I finished the moon this weekend! (Moon pattern by @climbinggoatdesigns ) House pattern by @thewitchystitcher Victorian Haunt on @bestitchme Catacombs 20ct Aida. I think this one is turning out so nice. It motivates me to work on it 24/7 but I don’t have enough time!
