🩸 Carmilla 🩸 This limited edition fabric collaboration with @witchsgardencrafts has just been restocked on my website! We have a beautiful 18ct, 28ct evenweave and 14ct opal! These are hand dyed by Michelle, exclusively for my shop. This fabric is named after the classic vampire novella, as well as my own hairless cat-daughter. All outstanding orders have been packed and are awaiting a trip to the post office. I have an assistant helping me for the foreseeable future while I get radiation again, so things will be running smoothly from here on out. 🖤 . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/CplfLJmLlcI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

❣️ Three of Crafts ❣️ I know I'm very late with this one, but I am just so enamoured with this finish by @wolfgarten_art.dept, who stitched my Three of Crafts pattern on the back of a denim vest! Seriously, what a labor of crafty love. ✂️ . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpdq5ncLOdF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

✧ March Patreon Pattern ✧ The Widow Frog Hello Darklings! For March, we have The Widow Frog. Is she mourning her husband? Is she mourning her latest project because she miscounted horribly? It's up to you to decide. I hope you enjoy this one. . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/CpbgHdlrRaX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💘February Patréon Pattern 💘 Firstly, I'm sorry for my absence and silence. I wrote a health update and explanation at the bottom. "Eye on You" is based on an esoteric illustration from Quarles’ Emblems (1886). Valentine's Day is the second most goth holiday after Halloween and you can't convince me otherwise. January's Patreon pattern is depressingly late. I'm working on it right now and I intend on releasing it within the next week. I'm so, so sorry for the delay. I'm working my way through my emails, so if you are waiting on a response from me, it's coming, I promise. I hope you like this month's pattern and you are all my Valentines. 🥹 LIFE UPDATE IN COMMENTS. . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/CoQbnzFP3Ez/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ayyy Happy 🎱 Friday the 13th! 🍀 I've asked my magic 8 ball for advice, and it just said ""If you or a loved one was diagnosed with Mesothelioma you may be entitled to financial compensation." I think I have the wrong channel.

In 2023, let's Live Deliciously, shall we? This is my Saintly Goat pattern stitched up by the talented @tulipandmooncreative. Great photo, too! 🖤 Thank you so much for being patient about my absence lately. Covid messed me up. I'm doing well enough that I was able to grocery shop in heavy platform boots today, so, I think that means I'm cured. 😉 . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/CnIjhIErD_k/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🪦𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐🪦 Reposting this finish of my Winter Mausoleum #1 by @moonfollowscar because I feel like it's just perfect for New Year's Eve. A nice layer of snow on a creepy crypt, with a peek of springtime in the background. Onward we go, into the unknown. Hopefully it's full of flowers. Have a safe holiday, friends. 🥂 . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm2BlpGJZ_p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Okay, so. I'm finishing out my year by getting threats from this shop. I sent a message (a truthful yet not nice one) to notorious copy and paster, Raven Coven. She had used my Nadja's Nightclub pattern as a basis and moved some pixels around, a favorite method of pattern thieves. She didn't remove the pattern after a warning, and I reported it. Nadja's Nightclub may not be the most egregious of her theft, but it's the latest in a pattern that has hit myself, @thewitchystitcher and @sonovastitch recently. As well as @kerembeyit , the artist behind the pumpkin painting. I have put some screenshots after the video. Nadja's Nightclub is from a TV show, so I don't have as much heartfelt connection to it than I do for some of my designs. Stealing the work of one of my best friends, The Witchy Stitcher, and telling her she needed to PROVE she created her own artwork is absolutely vile. Then there's the whole, threatening to sue me when I called her out. I didn't have that on my 2022 bingo card. So anyway, that's what's going on. . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch https://www.instagram.com/p/CmxnHlGtw2N/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🩸 Victorian Vampire's Kiss 🩸 Inspired by the beloved illustration by Max Ernst featured in What We Do in the Shadows. This pattern has taken me a while to create, as I made a lot of changes and interpreted things through my own lens. Two versions are included, color and grayscale. This is also a larger pattern! Start it now and you'll have it finished in time to give to your vampiric lover for Valentine's Day. 🥀 This pattern is available on my websìte and Étsy now. Oh, and a symbols-only version is included. . ✧ . ✧ . #nightspiritstudio #xstitch #crossstitch #gothcrossstitch #gothiccrossstitch #crossstitchersofinstagram #crossstitchpattern #crossstitcher #crossstitchlove https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl-hDvkshgB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🦋 Meg the Moth Woman 🦋 This finish by @cinzia.tmp makes me want to fly into a candle. In a good way.
