What You’ll Need
So, before you get started, you’ll need to gather a few materials:
- Embroidery thread in the colors you want
- Cross stitch fabric - you can choose your preferred count. I’d recommend something around 14ct for this design.
- A needle - make sure it’s appropriate for your fabric
- A hoop (optional, but highly recommended)
- Scissors
- The pattern - you can find it here: [insert link to pattern]
Getting Started
Once you’ve got everything you need, it’s time to start stitching! Here are a few tips:
- Use two strands of floss for the entire design - this will give it a consistent look.
- Start in the center of your fabric and work your way outwards.
- Double check your counting - it’s easy to make mistakes!
- Don’t be afraid to use different colors than the ones suggested in the pattern. Make it your own!
- Take breaks and stretch your hands. Cross stitching can be pretty intense on your fingers after a while!
Finishing Up
Once you’ve finished stitching, you can display your new masterpiece in a variety of ways. Here are a few ideas:
- Frame it and hang it on your wall
- Sew it onto a bag or piece of clothing
- Make it into a patch and add it to your jean jacket
- Give it as a thoughtful and unique gift to a loved one
I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I did! It was so fun to stitch and I know it will look amazing no matter how you choose to display it.
