I design cross-stitch patterns based on my nerdy interests. The only rules for using my patterns are that you credit me if you post a picture of something you've made, and don't sell anything made from my patterns.

Thank you! And for your question, I started to collect all the thread labels as I stitched, though I think there were a couple I missed as I completed the project but you can see an estimate of what I used. I also had all of the colors for the design as bobbins before I started and some more extra skeins as back ups. So I think when buying for the project it was under 10 because I got them on sale at Michael’s for what I did buy. Also I had to frog a large section which used more thread but used 18 count fabric which made me use less. Sorry if this answer was too complete ..read more

Another month’s worth of progress! And i’m finally done with one of the colors! it is the strawberries which i actually started last and have the least number of stitches, but you have to take your wins somewhere. I am 72% done according to my tacking program, and i think it will be about 6 more weeks of work ..read more

photography is wild. in person i can’t really see the difference between that dusty blue and green but it is so clear in the photo?? also i’m finally done frogging! Was actually done a couple of hours after my last update but i wanted to see how far i could get in a month. i’m almost done re-stitching all the sections i had to frog, but i’m most excited to be almost half way done.

Not a lot of progress over the last two weeks as i was traveling, but I’m almost done frogging! and my pattern tracker says i’m about 20% done. It doesn’t feel like 20% though because i have to fill in so much of that background blue. I’m saving the dark blue until last so that i can stitch without a pattern when i need to. Though, i’m going to have to start working on the bottom so i can roll the pattern up in my scroll frame ..read more

made some progress on the stitching and frogging! Still have that bit in the corner but i’m not fussed about getting it done as it will be awhile until i’m stitching that high up again.

I loved the design for the William Morris cross stitch i made for my mom so much that i decided to stitch the whole thing (ETSY link by Vivsters) Unfortunately I miss counted and i have to frog the entire area circled in red. Normally i would just work around it but the pattern is completely symmetrical so it would be super noticeable. Also i don’t have a deadline for this so i can do the frogging as nice mindless work between stitching new sections ..read more
