  • Completed cross stitch lighthouse. This came out so pretty, can’t wait to get it framed.

  • Almost finished, just have to do all the detail work. Final backstitching and details are my favourite part of an embroidery because it pulls a whole picture together.

  • WIP of the lighthouse cross stitch. I haven’t got much to do now & most of the last quadrant is half stitches which go pretty quickly.

  • I was having too much fun and kept forgetting to take a wip photo. Anyway, this is basically half done now…?

  • Had a hankering for embroidery so I started up this sweet little lighthouse from my stash.

  • Completed little gardener chickadee. How cute is it?!

  • Complete cornflower blackwork. This represents approximately 50ish hours of work.

  • Stitching up a quick little project – a tiny chickadee gardener bird!

  • Completed American songbirds cross stitch kit. This is a dimensions standard collection kit & it took approximately 130 hours to complete.

  • I always misjudge how long detailing actually takes, my brain thinks it doesn’t take long because it’s just lines but in reality it can take days. This represents about 3 days of work.
