Hovering over the abyss, the wreck's hollow frame echoed with silent screams. In the depths, dark tendrils lovingly embraced the accursed spoils of the deep.
The broods are awakening, swarming, screaming, and eventually leaving their exoskeletons everywhere. My patrons suggested a neon cicada, and I was happy to jump into a fun, bright palette. This design uses standard DMC and nothing extra or fancy!
Find this bright critter in my Patreon until June 15th.
Okay...so...TECHNICALLY this was finished while it was still MY Friday, so I'm posting it today. #PraiseHim#PrayerCloth is cross stitched on the front panel. Outlines that would normally be #Backstitch are #CrossQuilted to make the project double-sided. I should be able to finish the second copy tonight. After that, I'll be correcting errors and posting the proofed pattern to Ko-Fi. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll tell you when free digital & paid printable versions are available.
Okay, its a terrible picture and its not ironed cause its way too hot to iron. The pattern is straight, fabric is just bundled up under it.
#DeathByCrossStitch by #LongDogSamplers. Stitched on white 16ct aida fabric, using approx 370 metres of black DMC thread, 6 needles used. Final stitched area is - 55cm wide and 69cm high.
This was a labour of love, a challenge, a reward to myself, part of my #MentalHealth journey.
Thats been a busy few days stitching, but damn, I need a break!
Not much to do in the main part of the pattern, then a 2 row border to finish.
I can do this.....I can! Friday is my self imposed deadline, I do have things to do the next couple of days, silly real life getting in the way of stitching!
Good morning folks, here is yesterdays progress on #DeathByCrossStitch I'm pretty much going to be doing this and nothing else for a couple of days. I know I have tons of notifications to get through, and you know I am overwhelmed with them all!
Its a rainy day here, so perfect for stitching.
Have a fab day, whatever you are upto!
Finally finished on the #CrossStitch portion of the two copies of #PraiseHim#PrayerCloth! WHOO HOO!!! Now the easy part-- #CrossQuilting! As you can see, I already started around the central circle on the Sun, so the backs aren't very impressive yet. When I'm finished, I'll be correcting the pattern, posting it to Ko-Fi (emailing an updated, CORRECTED copy to those with the unproofed version), and then on to much a much less complicated project! #ThankGod for #LightAtTheEndOfTheTunnel! 😄🥳🎉🥳🎉
