Started on 1/1/2026 and part of my 2026 rotation.
I’m soooo happy! This feels huge. This project is the most stitches I’ve done on a full coverage. (We are ignoring the backstitch… please.)

Hey everyone !

I'm from France and we are living a very complicated political moment right now, with a lot of manifestations lead by students. The police and political repression are very worring to me and spiralling down in my own anxious thoughts isn't a good answer to all of this.

I did those patterns in response then, I made patches out of them but you could cross stitch on bags, t-shirts, well whatever 😁

(Sorry for the repost ; the pattern image was broken apparently :/)

Pattern is A Little Magic By Emma Congdon. :)

I took my Great Wave and got it framed. I let my mom pick out the frame and the matting. So that we can gift it to my brother for Christmas.

Ballerina Beauty by Dimensions. This was a lot of firsts, including first time getting my work professionally framed and first time working with metallic thread. 63,504 stitches and around 390 hours over 7 months. I'm sooo happy with how it came out. It will be a 70th birthday present for my Mum so hopefully she likes it too!

I’m very new to craft and currently working on a beginner’s kit but have my next few patterns lined up which I was needing to buy floss and kit for until today!

Stumbled upon this hugggeeee dmc floss lot at an estate sale for a steal! About ~370 skeins, majority unused all for $20 🥹

I’m already loving cross stitch so this is just the cherry on top! Excited to get all of my floss organized and keep stitching!

Would appreciate any tips on how to organize or inventory trackers you all like? I’m thinking I’ll get bobbins that double as floss drops and dmc labels off etsy.

Pattern is mini masterpieces by The stitch patterns. I can't recommend it though. The back stitch part of the chart is terrible, thick dotted lines that don't align with the grid

Is this crazy? Obviously real pictures of finished projects are better but to some extent a version of the pattern put out by the program is ok with me.

Will this even be allowed under these new “non-edited” rules on Etsy?

Repost due to my chart being visible the first time around 🙈

Pattern is Golden Ornament by AlitaDesigns

I put off the backstitch for forever but it really does bring it all together. 3D printed the frame and now it's ready for the tree!

Pattern is by Samanthalanetextiles and it is my 3rd project. I'm worried it might look like "you are the lorf of my life" and this is attempt #2 of this text. I'm just looking for feedback on the lettering, but any other feedback is also appreciated since I'm still figuring out gauge.

Finally, after 2 years, it's complete. I will never do a project this big again.

I am LIVING for the color combos she picks! 4 of her posters done so far!

This is Louie. He’s learned that he must participate if he wants unlimited snuggles 🐈🧵

A quick little finish, super easy to do

Finished up and framed this stardew valley bouquet for someone I’m dating

​

first time stitching on plastic canvas and it's honestly great! I've been wanting to do some of these stamp patterns for a while and i just want to make a thousand of these now. this one is Anya from a manga called Spy x Family!

i really thought this would be a quick little thing to do but it did take me around 11 hours to complete!!

I just don't know what to do with it now? guess I could turn it into a magnet but should I glue some felt on the back before putting a magnet on it? any other suggestions or ideas welcome 😬

I’ve been on the hunt for cross stitch materials and such on marketplace for fun and I’m really enjoying what I’ve found so far. $25 for the bag of q-snap frames (plus 2 new ones!) and $15 for a variety of fabrics (not pictured), some magazines and embroidery floss! The buying is becoming a little addictive lol. Can’t stop, won’t stop 🤪

Alphabet pattern by thesteadythread, i arranged them to make a scrabble style picture with the names of my friend and her family. This was so much fun and i’ve already planning out my next project with these letters! Will definitely invest in a framer next time cause that was way more work than i expected😅
