My Beautifuls, I am very happy to share with you my autumn display of cross stitchings I have created when I hosted a stitching afternoon with my friends. This is in my garden, so after the event I took everything back to the house where there are even more. Welcome to My Autumn Cross-Stitch Display! I am beyond excited to share my autumn cross-stitch display with you all. You know that feeling when you’ve finished a piece and just can’t wait to see it up on the wall or tucked into your seasonal décor? That’s exactly where I am right now—surrounded by warm tones, crisp designs, and all the cozy autumn vibes! The wonderful thing about being a devoted stitcher is that our collection grows with every season, and we soon have so many pieces that we can rotate them through the year. Autumn, with all its cozy, golden moments, is my favorite time to switch up the display. Each year, the pieces seem to tell their own stories as I arrange them—sometimes in the same spot as last fall, s

PINTEREST & CROSS STITCHERS

    Hello Darlings,  I was not only among the last people on Earth who recognised the Harry Potter series, but I am among those who just lately discovered all the wonders of Pinterest.   I have been making boards for a while now, but many times I forgot about them. Pinterest is a valuable resource for cross stitchers, offering a blend of creativity, inspiration, and practical tools to enhance the crafting experience. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced cross-stitch enthusiast, Pinterest provides a visual playground where you can discover new patterns, share your finished work, and connect with a global community of stitchers :-) 1. A Source of Endless Inspiration I have to admit I am more of an Instagram girl for inspiration, but it is a fact that I can search visual inspiration much better on Pinterest.  I am also very happy when I find the boards of fellow cross stitchers and designers! 2. Organized Creativity with Boards The ability to create themed boards on Pinterest i

I have designed it for a shop called Lucky Butterfly Stitchery, but now the digital pattern is available in our shop as well with instant download .    This cheeky raccoon, clutching a Halloween pumpkin in one hand and a spooky skull in the other, embodies the playful spirit of autumn nights.   Easy to stitch and designed with DMC colors, this pattern invites you to unleash your creativity.

5 DAYS TILL NEEDLEWORK EXPO - THINGS ARE GETTING HOT:-)

  Dear Diary,  I don't know where the time went... it is now only 5 days to go and I am getting super nervous and excited at the same time!  To this day we had to get our booth ready for the #needleworkexpo online page, I still have some smaller adjustments to do: to link my brand new shop I set up for the wholesale buyers and upload my stickerpacks! We will have dress reherseals in the next days! Let's see what I have accomplished in the past days since my last blogpost:  - the new releases are printed, though I had a hard time to estimate how much to print as I have never been to the needleworkexpo and don't know what to expect.    The printing was a challenge, I tell you, I had changed the printing company and chose new brand of papers!  I also invested in a professional printer to my office, an Epson goddess to print the stickers and information sheets.  - I had bought my first Cricut machine from Spain, ah, it is so dangerous, because I am so addicted to the many featu
