A little patch I made using my cow design 🌸

I made a new cross stitch pattern bundle made up of tiny motifs that reminded me of spring. 🌷🍓 The pigeon is an adorable guest. I have so many other ideas that I wanna keep making.

I stitched a couple onto 14 count Aida, and some are featured on my polymer clay charms.

The pdf pattern is available on my Ko-fi. 💖

Here's the finished batch of my polymer clay charms. I stitched some new designs and experimented with different effects on clay. ✨You can find them in my shop.

My personal favorites are the sheep and the frog. 🐑💖

Thanks for the suggestions for my future designs, I'll be working on those for the next batch.

I found this app called Pixquare a few days ago. I’ve been using it to make a collection of all the tiny cross stitch designs I want to use on my polymer clay charms. I found it very cute and fun to work with.

If anyone has any ideas for what I could turn into a small design that fits this vibe let me know 💖. I have so much fun figuring out how to design these.

More thread, less dread! 🪡

Small handmade collection now available here 🌷🌿

Polymer clay charms/pendants that I cross stitched with antique inspired designs. I painted gold details on them. I have more designs waiting to be crafted so I will update as I go 🦋. More flower designs, color changes, celestial motifs…

I was working on this idea for the past two weeks with many failed experiments. But I’ve come up with a process and a finished look I like. These four are done and I have 7 more to finish up. 🌷

They are made from polymer clay that I cross stitched after baking. I took inspiration from antique designs, some are a copy of them and many of them I designed myself. I love how many combinations of colors I can do to make each design a bit different.✨ I also stitched some on black clay.

I’m gonna turn some into jewelry pieces like the earrings here, and some leave just as pendants/charms. I’ll try to set them up for sale tomorrow or in the next few days.

There and back again

I'm so thankful for all the love this design is still getting. 💖

The little sheep has a bunny friend to match. You can find him in my Ko-fi shop here.

Small butterflies pattern is now free just for spring. 🌸

Sheep are one of my favorite animals, but Valais Blacknose sheep is maybe my favorite out of them. I created this small cross stitch pattern to be used as a patch. If you like it and want to make your own I have the pattern available here.

I cross stitched this months ago, but I couldn’t find a frame I liked. I finally decided to make one myself using air dry clay.

I slightly modified this free pattern. My idea was for it to represent Granny Weatherwax, I also added tiny pins to her hat.

I painted these Converse using acrylic paint in spring of 2023. They look more faded now (green laces), but I’m surprised how well it held up. I used cheap acrylic paint and nothing else. They did get wet in rain several times and worn in less than ideal muddy conditions. The only thing I did was change up the laces a few times, I used different ribbons and now added these leaf charms.

I sewed this tote using the fabric from an old bag I had laying around and some other leftover fabric. I chose a simple design since this is the first bag I made. I looked up a few tutorials and used a combination of what I liked most.

I really like how little cherry blossoms on the pocket turned out. 🌸

WIP update for my upcoming space collab! 💫 The base is done, but what do you think the crystal ball is showing? The future? The past? Another realm? 👀 Peer into the unknown and tell me your predictions before the grand reveal on March 18th! 🔮💜 Hint: it's out of this world...

A floppy eared bunny surrounded by dandelions. 🐇🌱

Pattern available on Ko-fi.

It’s similar to a digital painting I did a while ago and it also matches my sheep cross stitch patch design. My idea is to design a third one to make a bundle, however I’m not sure yet about what animal to pick.

A sheep ornament/bag charm based on the design I already made for my wallet. I used different thread colors and added different beads and details. 🎀✨

It’s available on my Etsy.
