Yo! Obligatory intro post

Td;lr Art account! Cross-stitch, writing, sketches etc. etc.

I made this account to spread the word about my new small business for cross-stitch patterns! Most designs are either floral or animal centric, but I’m hoping to expand soon!

All designs are beginner focused and aren’t more complicated than the basic crosses and the occasional back-stitching. For anyone looking for resources on starting cross-stitching I highly recommended the cross-stitching sub-reddit here.

And as always my asks and messages are always open!

Finally finished this cross-stitch for my sister's birthday next month.

Idk what I did to mess up the letters so they're too far to the right, but I think it still looks good

I ironed out my hoop marks and now I’m getting ready to finish it with a blanket stitch edging.

Crappy digital representation of the edge stitches.

Finished on January 9, 2025. It has more depth irl, I can't really capture it with the camera. The progress is a lot of posts in my #natisstitching tag.

upd:

Here's another pic. The colours are a bit dull on this one but oh well.

upd2: it's not exactly cross stitch, to be honest. It's tapestry (goblen, petit point, whatever name you like for it). It's stitched with 2 strands of thread over one strand of fabric (instead of the regular 2 strands to make an X), that's why the stitches are so small. It usually doesn't have any kind of backstitch and is better to look from afar because it's like a watercolor painting of sorts. When you look really close, you only see stitches. When you look a bit further away, you can see the entire picture.

It really is a beautiful picture.
