‘I’d rather ask my cat than ChatGPT’ cross stitch pattern 😾💖🖕

Fuck AI! I’m proud to say I’ve never used ChatGPT and simply never will. I’d trust a silly fluffy kitty for life advice over a dumb ai robot any day of the week. :3

AI slop ‘art’ is trash and has no place in the textiles/fiber arts community, or any creative space. We only support and uplift human artists here. <3

'Emo furever' cat cross stitch pattern :3 (with multiple kitty design options!) 🖤✨

Link to this pattern is here >

It may surprise some of you (because my profile is a pretty pink paradise) but I’m an emo! I was a teenager with a long side-swept emo fringe, lots of piercings, checkered clothing, and an obsession with emo music. Today I still mostly wear black and listen to a lot of the same music, but I’m also equally a pink princess and enjoy switching between the two. 🖤💗

This customisable cat x stitch design features 5 different cat colours and 5 different colours for the emo accessories. You get all the options by purchasing the pattern once and can create as many emo cats as you like! You’re also welcome to use other colours to match your own emo kitty if you prefer. :3

Were you an emo teenager? Are you an elder emo? It was never a phase for some of us. Emo forever. 🖤

Hi Samatha!! I love your cross stitch patterns and your work has been really inspiring! Can I ask how you got started on making patterns and any tips and tricks? And have no fear, I’ll be purchasing your queer/cat patterns for as long as you create them 🤍

Hiii!!! Oh that's so kind of you, thank you!! :3 I started designing cross stitch patterns a few years ago to make things for my house (lots of flowers and queer designs etc.). I actually used minecraft and animal crossing to experiment with pixel art and eventually got some grid paper to make a chart. I then eventually purchased a cross stitch software to develop them further and make patterns (I use PCStitch)

The great thing about selling cross stitch patterns online is that they're unlimited and always available! If you have a design which doesn't sell immediately, it might turn around months later and randomly become your best seller. It's all a little unpredictable too, so I just keep going and creating/sharing my ideas bc eventually they'll appeal to the right person. And I like to experiment with different styles etc. so I can keep trying new things! But ofc it's mostly cats and trans patterns lmao <3

Hope this helps!!! <33

July 2026 Patreon cross stitch pattern: Silly Halloween Kitties! 🐈‍⬛ 🎃🦇🖤✨

Link to my Patreon: www.patreon.com/samanthalanetextiles

Happy Summerween to all who celebrate!! What better way to celebrate Halloween in July than by stabbing fabric hundreds of times to create a silly, yet adorable, spooky cross stitch design? This spooky x stitch design features two very silly cats in their silly witch-ghost and pumpkin costumes surrounded by candy, potions, bats, flies, a happy coffin, and cute little spiders with their own little treat bags. 🥹😭🖤✨ If you’re a cat lover who loves fiber arts and Halloween (literally me), then this is the perfect pattern for you. :3 This pattern is available for subscribers of the ‘Whiskers Club’ tier from now until July 31st. After that, it’ll be archived and replaced by the August pattern. It’ll then be added to my Etsy page in October at a higher price.

I’m launching a Patreon! 🥰🎉💖 starting this Wednesday (1st July), I’m excited to offer extra cute cat-themed patterns to those who support me as an artist! See above the two tiers currently available (note that a third tier may be added in the future). 💕

‼️ Please note that joining on a desktop is cheaper than joining on the Patreon iOS app! You can unsubscribe at any time.

This is an exciting new step for my small business! Supporting my Patreon directly helps me to achieve my ultimate goal of becoming a fully self-employed textile artist/cross stitch designer. 🥹

I’ll still be adding new cross stitch patterns directly to my Etsy shop, but these will be smaller/less time consuming than my Patreon designs. I’ll also be doing SALs throughout the year (some free for all, some Patreon exclusive), so keep an eye out for those!

Whether you’ve supported, shared, donated, or stitched one of my silly kitty designs, I appreciate all of you so, so much!

howdy y’all!

‘I’d rather stay at home with my cat’ cross stitch pattern 🐈💗✨

This silly little pattern is available now to purchase as a pdf download on my et~sy shop!! Link is here > <3

Who needs to go out socialising with other human beings when you could be at home, snuggled under a blanket with your fave tv show and a super soft kitty? That’s the life I require at all times, thank you.

Being an introvert + having a cat as your best friend is the correct way to do things. 😌

These two kitties are siblings and very important members of the family. One is an angel, the other is a devil, but they’re besties and love to snuggle with each other in the evenings. They fight, get into a lot of mischief, and sometimes drive you crazy, but they’re also perfect little fur babies and you’d do anything for them. 😭💗

‘You can never have too many cats’ cross stitch pattern 🐈🐈‍⬛😾😽💗

Pattern available on my little shop here >

There’s no such thing as ‘too many cats’‼️ Cats are soft, and silly, and perfect in every way, and it’s an absolute joy to be around them. Sure we might catch them scratching walls, stealing cat biscuits, or refusing to do as they’re told, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. :3
