Zecora the Zebra - My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic cross stitch design.

This design was drawn originally with Anchor colours in my cross stitch design program. Use Anchor threads to get the closest match to the picture. I used a conversion chart to get the DMC numbers.

Please let me know if any colours are off and I will amend them in the chart.

This is a Cross stitch design of Zecora the Zebra.
Zecora is very cool but sadly the only Zebra seen so far. I would love to see some more Zebra in the world of Equestria. Where do they live? Presumably some kind of continent like Africa because Zecora wears jewelry rather similar to the ones worn by African tribes people.

One thing I find interesting is the design on her flank. Is that a Cutie mark? You can see in the episodes that there have been no Donkeys, Cows or Buffalo (or Griffons for that matter) with cutie marks giving the impression that only Ponies earn cutie marks as part of their natural growing process.
But of course having only seen one zebra so far we cannot be sure that this is a trend. It would be nice to see a few more of them and the area they live in.

Hello cross stitchers. Who is looking forward to the 50th anniversary Doctor Who special? Theres a bit of buzz about it amongst my friends. Its also available in the cinema to view on the big screen. That must be one serious episode to warrant this. :)

So because I couldn't stop looking up the various Doctor Who trailers for this episode I decided to take a break by drawing the Tardis. This design is easily cushion sized and contains only whole stitches (so not tricky backstitch or half stitches to trouble you). When stitching this you will want to make sure you have plenty of the blue thread, it fills quite a large area and you wouldn't want to run out part way.

This design was drawn to be simple to sew maybe I'll draw another design with more details but a few more complicated stitches involed or maybe an itty bitty Tardis for cards. I'd love to send a Doctor Who themed birthday card to my friend who is a really big fan of the show.

This design is fan art to share with other Cross stitching Doctor Who fans. I claim no rights to the characters or show as it belongs to the BBC.

Here is a picture of the utterly adorable Applejack as a filly. I know I already drew one cross stitch design of her but I just couldn't resist drawing another one.
This picture is before Applejack finds her cutie mark as shown in the episode 'Call of the Cutie'

After doing some drawings of the mane 6 ponies Cutie marks I have been asked a few times to draw some of the suporting casts cutie marks and how could I say no? So this week its Cheerilee, Big Mac and DJ Pon3.
These designs are just the right size for a large cross stitched card though you won't have too much extra room for other embelishments.
I may just make Cheerilees cutie mark into a cross stitched pencil case or a patch for a cloth pencil case which I have which looks far too plain. It should be a simple case if matching the cross stitch and securly sewing on the patch to the pre-made pencil case.

I will be starting drawing a few more of the cutie marks and posting them a few at a time. If you have a favourite pony that you really want to see up next feel free to pop a comment on this post and I'll make it one of the next batch I draw and post. Though I definatly think the hourglass which is used for Doctor Whooves should definatly get drawn since this side pony has become quite a recognisable character.

This is a small card sized cross stitch design for the Ghostbusters. It will be nice to stitch for a fan of the films or cartoons and is not too difficult to tackle. With only three colours you won't be spending too long on it at all.
We will be watching this film for Halloween  this year (since my friends who are coming don't like really really scary films) with a whole bunch of popcorn and sweets.
I have heard rumour that my housemate is planning to decorate our house a bit for the occasion. With a big skeleton and some cobwebs. I don't think she will have to try too hard you know. Theres already cobwebs all over the place so now they are decoations and not a sign I havn't tided up in a while.

The Ghostbusters was made and distributed by these lovely companies, Black Rhino, Delphi Productions and Columbia Pictures. This is a fan art picture free for other cross stitchers to use I do not own this charcter.

Here is a cross stitch design for the Flame Princess from Adventure time. Here she is looking very sweet and cute and quite unlike her latest episode. (but I shall not mention in case of spoilers)

One lovely thing about Adventure Time I have noticed is the variety of different looks and outfits each character has. Well it seems that Jake rarely wears clothing and Finn must have several sets of the same outfit but take a look at the other humanoid characters such as Princess Bubblegum, Marceline and of course the Flame Princess. So many shows will not change the character models as often and perhaps only for a specific purpose.
In Adventure Time I think it gives a few more clues to the personalities of each character. Their looks change and evolve along with their storylines, this show does not remain static when ther start and end point of the story is the same time and time again but the world and the characters evolve a little with every passing story arc.

This is a cross stitch design of a circle of butterflies and flowers in bight bold colours.
It was inspired by some of the wonderful jewellery creations at my friends Etsy shop. Check it out here: 
http://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/KJSBeadCreations

Here are a few of the designs featured in the Etsy shop. I just love the way each piece is so bright, bold and colourful. She also uses a wide variety of colours and themes so it is easy to find something to match all moods and outfits.
Aren't they adorable? I just can't decide which one I'd want to wear. 




If you would prefer to use your favourite colours for this design here is a version of the design with just the black outlines (though I think it would also look good in any colour bright or dark enough to stand out from the aida)
