On this #tbt, I’m going to throw it back to the on On this #tbt, I’m going to throw it back to the one that started it all. 🪡💕

“I believe…” was first seen in @justcrossstitch in 2019 as a winner in their ornament design contest. 🎄🎅🥳 It was not only my first Christmas cross stitch design but my first original cross stitch design ever. Getting selected as a winner was a dream come true for the ten year old inside of me who grew up stitching patterns from similar magazines. And now I’ve designed a total of 15 patterns for Just Cross-Stitch, not to mention numerous others for @sulkythreads, @cottonclubcrafts, and more. 

Thank you all for your support as I live this little dream of sharing my ideas with you; I just love seeing how you make them a part of your own creative journeys! 🤗🥰

If you’re still looking for some holiday stitches, you can find all of my Christmas cross stitch designs at https://handmadewithchrissy.com/designs/cross-stitch/#christmas (or through the link in my bio)

I can’t wait to see what you make with me!

It seems I’m not the only one in a stitching funk It seems I’m not the only one in a stitching funk right now, so maybe I can inspire my fellow cross-stitchers with something a little different. 🪡 💕 

Introducing my new “Flowers in Stitches” counted thread embroidery sampler, now available in the current Spring issue of @justcrossstitch! 

This design was so fun to stitch, with just enough standard counted cross stitch to keep your confidence up while teaching you 15 (if I remember right) classic embroidery stitches right there on your familiar Aida cloth. 

I hope you’ll give this one a try; I can’t wait to see what you make with me! 🤗🌷

(P.S. I almost forgot to recommend the beautiful blue fabric from #wicheltimports and the amazing hand dyed floss from @thegentleartinc! If new stitches don’t inspire you to pick up a new project, maybe an excuse to try fun new materials will. 😉)

I’m trying really hard to leave my fall decoration I’m trying really hard to leave my fall decorations up through Thanksgiving, but seeing everyone’s Christmas posts is making it difficult! 🍁🎅🤯😅

Putting out one decoration can’t hurt, right?? I just love how @justcrossstitch finished my “Home with Yule” design for their latest Christmas cross stitch issue! 🎄🪵😍

What are you stitching this November #makermonday? I’m about to pick up another Christmas project to work on…while surrounded by pumpkins. So…Happy Thanksmas season everyone! 🤪

I’ve made some slow progress on this one…and now I I’ve made some slow progress on this one…and now I think I’m going to rip it out. 😅🤦‍♀️😭

Either the software mock-ups have become less reliable or my designs have been more in need of color accuracy lately, but hopefully one of these days I’ll learn to trust my instincts BEFORE test stitching. I don’t want these stitches to jump off the background, but I’m thinking there wont be any contrast at all with this color. 🤔 It’s fun to play with the waste canvas but it sure makes it hard to confirm what the colors will look like once it’s gone! Maybe someday I’ll also learn not to play and design at the same time. 🤪

I hope you all are having a more productive start to your stitching week! 🤗
