Hello everyone,

Today I have a cute meme for you. This is the unpopular opinion puffin which is normally paired with captions describing unpopular opinions. 

If you have an idea of what unpopular opinion you'd like to showcase in your stitching I also have a Meme alphabet which can be found here: Meme caption alphabet  

I asked a few of my friends what they thought an unpopular cross stitch opinion would be so heres a selection of a few we came up with. (none of these are my opinions)

• I love to do confetti stitch, even if its fiddily it looks nice when its done
• I don't mind unpicking stitches that I got wrong. Its relaxing
• I don't like to do backstitch - but I do it anyway because it looks nice

If anyone has a unpopular opinion to share please feel free to pop it in the comments, if its a good one I'll make a copy of this meme picture complete with a unpopular cross stitching opinion in meme text font. 

For more information on the origin and uses of this meme here's the entry for this meme

Hello everyone,

Its been a cold, cold week and I have not enjoyed the journey to and from work due to being bundled up in my scarf gloves and coat and still getting chilly. So I thought to distract myself from the cold I would draw someone else all bundled up.
I think this girl looks like she is waiting for someone to show up otherwise she would be quickly heading away somewhere nice and warm.

This design is a little more detailed than cross stitches I normally draw. It was a nice challenge to do. If these harder designs prove popular I'll work on some more designs with a little more detail and colour threads to add nice shading.

Valentines cards cross stitch design - love

Valentines cards cross stitch design - love

Hello everyone,

Its that time of year when crafters get their Valentines day projects ready for their special somebody. :)

So I thought I'd draw a nice simple design for a cross stitched card. I have no recommendations for thread numbers on this one since it can be stitched in any shade you like. While a nice bright red can be traditional for Valentines designs it can be stitched in any colour. Alternatively each letter can be stitched in a different colour for a really colourful finish. 

Have a great valentines day weather or not you'll be celebrating it with a special somebody or just having a nice day to yourself. (Stitching maybe?)

Much love and happy stitching.

Hello everyone,

Today is a cute little pug cross stitch design to remind us all to hug a pug! My friend has an adorable little pug puppy who gives her many hugs whenever she is feeling under the weather.

This is a fun stitch for a pug loving friend or family member. Why not change up the shade of thread to look more like a pug you like to hug, maybe they will give you a hug while you are trying to sew this. Which now I think about it may not be entirely helpful and maybe a little distracting. Its ok though, since pugs are super cute they can get away with distracting me from my stitching.

Much love and happy stitching

 Hello everyone, 

It's that time of year again where we start getting ready for Valentine's day, I know for some it may be a little early but it takes time to hand craft the perfect Valentines card. :) If you already have a Valentine in mind here's a simple and quick stitch to sew for a cross stitched card or gift. 

This cross stitch design shows an envelope overflowing with hearts. It seems fitting for a card as it may contain some very lovely sentiments which will make it seem like it too is bursting with love. 

I think I may have to sew this one for my lovely boyfriend. I think the striking design will suit him as he has never been a fan of the traditional cutesy animals or flowers which normally adorn cards at this time of year. 

Much love and happy stitching

Gemma xx

Hello everyone,
Since it's been a little while since we have had some lovely weather I thought it would be great to cheer you all up with a bright and easy cross stitch to remind us that warmer weather is on the way.

As always feel free to change the colours on this stitch to threads you like the look of, to match a room or perhaps your mood. They can be stitched as a set or just one at a time. Have fun stitching these lovely flowers as we wait for warmer weather coming up

Hello everyone, 

Happy new year everyone! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a nice new years eve. Its now time for resolutions. My new years resolution is to finally get the things in my house fixed with some good DIY jobs that I have been putting off. So to help me out I drew this picture of Applejack from the episode 'Applejacks Day off' when she is ready to fix the pipes in the spa where it seems that Applejack cannot rest for a moment when there is work to be done, even if it is to spend a relaxing day with Rarity. I guess Applejack is a too stubborn a pony to relax.
