All these patterns are fantastic!

Oh that’s me! 🥰

A cross stitch project on mottled blue fabric that shows a giant clam with bubbles coming from their mouth and a tiny skull on the inside like a pearl. There's a cute snail and fishes. Giant Clam Tableau. The Stitch Crypt.

@thestitchcrypt.com Designed a giant clam! Do you see all those tiny details, like the skull?

A round, trinket tray with a repeating pumpkin motif with a cross stitch center. The cross stitch shows a steller's jay perched on an oak branch that has orange leaves and brown acorns. The photo is staged with pinecones, berries, wildflowers, and a cool, Swiss army knife, blade out. There's a small bookmark perched on top of the tray, shaped and cross stitched to look like a steller's jay feather. Patreon Exclusive. BAD Stitch.

My new favorite bird and pattern on Patreon ($6 what!) is a Steller's Jay AND a bonus feather bookmark!

A cross stitch of a human skull with a yellow snake coming out through the mouth. Red mushrooms and grass grow around the skull.

Happy Earth Day!

One way to reduce your carbon footprint is to let the earth reclaim you when you leave this world behind. Circle of life and all that. I hope my skull becomes a home for some cute animal friend someday!

A cross stitch of a ghost floating above a puddle while 3 little brown bats hold a red umbrella above the head of the ghost. Purple flowers and greenery surround the stitched piece for decoration.

We've gotten a good amount of rain lately and things are starting to green up. Just a few more weeks before the leaves and flowers finally come back.

Enjoy the spring rain and maybe you will even have some friendly bats to help carry your umbrella too!
