I have 3 cross stitch projects I’m working on right now.
This first one is actually finished, but I need to get around to washing and framing it. It was a Christmas present for my father, so hopefully I can get it done soon 😅 It’s of Zion National Park which is in Utah, and is one of his favorites. The pattern is by Awesome Pattern Studio
This next one is a silly one that I started last pride month and has been sitting at about 80% done for a year, so I intend to finish this pride month - the bi pride opossum. Just need to finish the foliage. The pattern is by Studio Ansitru
Finally my monster WIP, the 2021 stitchalong from Modern Folk Embroidery. Hoping to get this one done within this year. Since it’s only 2 colors it actually works up pretty quickly. Pattern is by Modern Folk Embroidery
Those are all of my WIPs for now. I have the materials for another project on order and possibly arriving on Friday.
That Zion pattern is 100% exactly the sort of style I most love to stitch! It's absolutely gorgeous, great work! Kinda hesitant to click the shop link but we all know I'm gonna give in.
Love the pride pattern too, I've seen that one around and it never fails to make me smile :D
(I see what you're doing with that "another project" plan 👀)
Yes, I couldn't help myself 😂
So much fun! I love your third, mono(duo?)chromatic one. I just picked up needlepoint again after a decade. Once I'm done with my little project, I think some crossstitch is in order. I've been eyeballing the ones on longdogsampler.com
I have so many long dog samplers on my wishlist! I'll probably pick one up after I finish with the Modern Folk Embroidery project.
They have such great patterns, but they're such a commitment! I still have the "Pandemic" freebie they gave out during lockdown sitting there glaring at me from the "to be stitched" pile. One day, one day!
Those are awesome, especially the anarchist possum.
I love the possum one.
