100 paper circular floss drops on a binder ring. They are in 4 different patterns of mid-century modern style and the colors are muted blues, pinks, and green

The 4 different patterns played out as well as the back of them which are in neutral colors. The patterns in front are in 4 different patterns of mid-century modern style and the colors are muted blues, pinks, and green

I made some floss drops tonight 😊 #crossstitch

If you are stitching the background, I would pick bottom right. If you are not stitching the background then the top left

That's next level!

I find myself having to put on headphones and listen to something (podcast, audiobook) to be able to complete tasks around the house

The 3D printed knitting machine is finished & operational. I wouldn't choose to use this over our commercial machines, but this is a *fantastic* example of what you can do with/for open source. 🤖 Youtube video with links to GitHub repo: youtu.be/eFesPhYR8KI?... 🧶 #DHmakes

Love that! Great pattern!

Thank you for the information. That's interesting. They even have the codes for the colors. I'm in the US and haven't seen this before

The colors are funky. I like them! How does a rare disease have colors? That's interesting

I've done 3 and just starting the 4th! And I normally don't like knitting the same thing over and over again

Very nice! The stitches are really even 😲

Book cover of So Thirsty by Rachel Harrison. It has a black background with a cocktail glass filled with blood and a spooky stirrer

I don't read horror very often but maybe I should. This book was brilliant. Combination of female friendship, mid-life crisis... and vampires!

Fast paced, entertaining, and surprisingly relatable! 📚💙

Jody at Satsuma Street is brilliant at making Christmas pieces in unusual colors, and I'm there for it. My new favorite Christmas color is pink! 😳

It's a finished cross stitch piece on a dusty pink fabric showing two birds nestled in flowers and shrubbery with 3 glowing lit candles in the background. The piece is accented by metallic silver and gold

This is so stinking cute 😍

I started it (Holiday Glow) last February and finished it today (Feb 22nd). It's a Christmas design by Satsuma Street, but I think it can double as a Valentine piece too.

I'm just reading a book with a necromancer in it. Bookshops & Bonedust 😁

Thank you! It's called Dark Pink from Vintage Needle Arts on Etsy. I used 16 count aida

I always forget that hashtags work here. #crossstitch #satsumastreet #HolidayGlow #WIP

A cross stitch piece in progress. It shows two white birds nestled in flowers. Two (out of three) candles are behind them. It's stitched on dusty pink Aida.

Getting close to being done with this one.

Great color!

Álafoss is the name of the area where they made the yarn originally. It's named after a waterfall. alafoss.is/pages/about-...

Cool! but that's not lopi. It's léttlopi which is more like worsted weight whereas lopi is bulky. Although Icelanders do tend to call all yarn lopi so that might be what you meant 😂

A screenshot of my Spotify On Repeat playlist showing 6 songs from artists such as Depeche Mode, Bad Bunny, Snow Patrol, Laufey, and Dusty Springfield

I thought I would share a snapshot of my Spotify On Repeat playlist that they curate. I love how all over it is. It hasn't yet caught on how I've been listening to Turandot lately, lol.

Beautiful! I've never done a vintage travel poster but I've been intrigued by them for a while. Congratulations on your finish!

I tried that once and it does offer great opportunity in arranging patterns and colors but the technique is really involved. Not mindless at all!

Were you on the TGV? I lived in Bordeaux once and that's how I would go to Paris

Amazing fabric! Great finish
