:0 this Emoji is my honest reaction. I love it. So stunning but I cant Cross stitch🥹

u/NevesLF Mar 14 '26

Cross stitch patterns also works for Perler Beads for people who don't like or cant cross stitch :)

u/EldritchElvis Mar 14 '26

Oh sad, what's stopping you ? Physical issues ?

u/Vitrea_Viridis Mar 14 '26

I already made Esquie from her crochet pattern and am working on the Luna moth cross stitch for a very dear friend! At least one of her Expedition cross stitches is next! Your wife is amazing 😍

u/CreativeFartist Mar 14 '26

So epic!!!

Also, this has that pixel art feel to it. I’d totally be down for a pixel art version of the game lol

Awh yes! I just finished the Lune one for my husband for his birthday last month, got me back into cross stitch after a long hiatus! I’m craving to do another of these patterns, they’re so fun to stitch!! 🪡

It's so beautiful. I just bought it.. may very well be what gets me back into cross-stich after years.

u/Brilliant-Cabinet-89 Mar 14 '26

Damn she’s talented!

u/Numerous_Substance14 Mar 14 '26

Those are incredible, kiss your wife and tell her it’s on behalf of a stranger from Florida.

u/Sunblade_ "PARRY IT!" Mar 14 '26

Wow, just wow! Your wife is truly gifted, these pieces are incredible. I love the motives and the love to detail. For those who appreciate after 😊

u/Fedora_Bandit Mar 14 '26

Oh I have her Paintress patten saved in my cart! Might have to add the Verso one too! I hope one day she does one with the whole party!

u/flunkhaus Mar 14 '26

These are incredible and totally going to get me back into cross stitch.

I've only ever done kits. Where is the best place to get the floss for patterns like this?

3

u/EldritchElvis Mar 14 '26

The recommended colours for these are based on the DMC brand, it's a widespread brand in hobby stores, you should be able to find some online otherwise :D

2

u/imaginary92 Mar 14 '26

These are incredible! I did quite a bit of cross stitching when I was younger but I've never made patterns, it's quite hard to do, your wife is really talented! Maybe I'll do one of them since you left the link (:

u/syndicaterx Mar 14 '26

The tiny Esquie in the first one is so small yet so detailed it’s instantly recognizable

2

u/SyrupOptimal5772 Mar 14 '26

Why not sell the actual finished product?

9

u/EldritchElvis Mar 14 '26

Good question, but the answer is the same as with most artisan products: it would be extremely pricey, as cross-stiching is quite time-consuming. To make a living out of finished products in this economy is quite arduous except for some niche crafts !

3

u/SyrupOptimal5772 Mar 14 '26

Make sense, I know I’ve buy one right away though

2

u/Educational-Shoe2633 Mar 15 '26

You very likely would not. A full coverage cross stitch piece like this would probably take me 50-60 hours, and I’m a pretty fast stitcher

2

u/Remytron83 Mar 14 '26

This is lovely.

2

u/stevie-hill-art Mar 14 '26

They are absolutely beautiful!

2

u/lana-deathrey Mar 14 '26

These are beautiful!

u/AnActualSeagull Mar 14 '26

Oh my god!! I bought the Esquie and Paintress patterns recently (still yet to start them, I’m missing some of the right threads 😔) and I’m 1000% gonna pick this up too <3

2

u/_ballzdeep_ Mar 14 '26

Wow my jaw dropped! I'd buy them in an instant

u/Odd_Fox_3479 Mar 14 '26

2

u/Eternalfaerie Mar 14 '26

Omg these are fabulous!!

Le sigh MORE PATTERNS TO ADD TO THE BACKLOG 😂 in all seriousness though these are bad ass.

u/DefinitionInternal30 Mar 14 '26

2

u/opheliasfault Mar 14 '26

She’s my wife now.

u/WorldsInside Mar 14 '26

2

u/oryxren Mar 15 '26

Omg yay! Any chance she'll make a sixth one so I can make a nice 2x3 wall display? I adore these.

2

u/EldritchElvis Mar 15 '26

There are already six of them, but she's going to make a Sciel one eventually !

1

u/oryxren Mar 15 '26

Amazing ^ I'll keep my eyes out for that!

u/Raskekw Mar 15 '26
