This week’s pattern is now available on Etsy. Queen – ostensibly to go along with King, but in reality totally has control of the realm.
It’s an easy pattern with a straight forward colour palette and using only full stitches so it’s quick to stitch up.
King and Queen as matching cushions, perchance? Maybe I should do a Knave next….

Just in time for Mother’s Day! Last minute gift for your stitchy mom, or for yourself if you are one (face it, mom’s usually buy their own Mother’s Day gifts, right?).
And even better – in honour of this being my first Mother’s Day as a mother – this pattern is only 2€… and has an extra 50% off until May 13 with the special coupon code MOTHERSDAY2012. All in my etsy shop.
I wonder what my eight month old daughter will be getting me….

New pattern! A cross stitch graffiti pattern which would be perfect for, well, just about anything. (I’d love to see it scrawled across the back of a dining room chair myself). Available now in my etsy shop, StitchaliciousDesign!

There’s a new graffiti cross stitch pattern in my etsy shop, StitchaliciousDesign. This one’s called Pretty and, like all the others, is based on a fully original piece of graffiti by me! All full stitches, no cross stitch or back stitch so it’s a quick and easy stitcher-upperer.

Sometimes it’s just as simple as Stitch, right?
This pattern, a 100% original Stitchalicious design, was first published in the book Anticraft: Knitting, Beading and Stitching for the Slightly Sinister and is now available as an individual pattern in my Etsy shop. It uses only full cross stitches and back stitch.
The stitched example model in the photo is the cross stitched onto a painted tapestry canvas. The tapestry itself was not stitched. It used three strands of Anchor floss for the cross stitch and two strands for back stitch. As can be seen, for improved contrast, the outside of the pattern was stitched in blue rather than pink. Painted tapestry canvases can be purchased from almost any shop selling embroidery supplies.

Want an inspirational quote for your wall, but not one of those posters with a photo of a sunset and the word tranquility under it? Don’t you think your cubicle needs something a little more, well, interesting?
The pattern for this bit of sprayer fun is, of course, available at my etsy shop. The design is only full cross stitches, so a great beginners piece, and working it on larger fabric (eg 14 ct Aida or higher) with more threads would make the perfect wall hanging for that cubicle partition.
The pattern is available from my etsy shop, StitchaliciousDesign, in three colourways, or in a discount three-pack containing all. Also included are instructions for beginners and athread key for both DMC and Anchor.
The model in the photo above was stitched on 16 ct black Aida and,, for the curious, has been photographed in front of Berlin’s East Side Gallery (part of the original wall in case you aren’t familiar with it) by Matti Hillig.

Graffiti can’t be cute? Sure it can! And this tag is no exception.
The pattern pdf is available in my etsy shop. The design contains only full cross stitches (no partial stitches, no backstitch, no sneaky french knots) so anyone can start in on it right away. There are three different colourways available, which can be bought individually or as a three-pack for a discount price. Included are instructions for beginner stitchers and a key for both DMC and Anchor floss.
The stitched model in the photo above is the green colourway done on 22 count yellow evenweave over two, using three strands of DMC floss.

The first graffiti cross stitch design – Atrocity! (because, well, I always wanted to be one, but was more of a book-lovin’ geek).
The downloadable design comes in three seperate colourways – pink, orange and blue – all of which are in the shop. Pick which one best appeals to you or buy the three-pack containing all colourways for just a fraction more. The design contains only full cross stitches and back stitch, so is perfect for beginners or more advanced stitchers that just want to chill out with some relaxing x’s. The pattern comes with a floss key for both DMC and Anchor threads and includes basic cross stitching instructions.
The stitched model in the photo above is the pink colourway, done on 28 count salmon coloured linen over two, using two threads of DMC floss for both the cross stitches and the back stitch. It was then used to make the bag shown.
