#FatBearWeeklySAL

Need to get better at posting here…but I’m starting a new SAL next month dedicated to bears. Join and stitch!

So cute!

Got my Nashville pre-orders set, super excited to also do Nash Fest. My first online stitch retreat/ retreat ever. What patterns are y’all excited about?

It looks amazing! So cool to see the progress

Not me getting a 5 mystery pack of floss and getting two pairs of the same color 😭. There beautiful but I wanted these to round out my Stitch4Pride Sampler. Guess I need to buy more variegated floss (oh nooo…)

Love the series, great way to see how designers came about!

Ooo that’s fun, thank you for sharing

Very true, I have been hesitant because I do not know if would use all the other templates in the cross stitch package. I will look it over. Thank you

Oh that’s amazing, I’ll take a look. Thanks

That’s a good idea as well. Thanks

Need to make a spreadsheet for the DMC I have- just realized I had two colors for my current project on a ring for an less active WIP.

Or maybe I should take the plunge of the cross stitch notion template

I love this so much!

beautiful work!

Having a fun time with my Valentine’s Day start

So happy I’m doing a new start tonight and a new one tomorrow! Goal setting really helps me out

New finish!

Pattern: Bunny Sampler by LoomBug
Fabric: 18ct Baby Pink Aida

Time to complete: around 17 hours

Second finish of the week is almost here. So excited to show y’all

Unexpected upside to the Eagles winning the Super Bowl - got the day off Friday cause of the parade so I can spend most of the day on my Valentine’s Day start!

Stephanie at Lindy Stitches is on one with these designs. The Dodo is going straight to the top with bird basket but god I want to do all these patterns

February of Stitch4Pride is done! This month was in honor of Hatshepsut. Some notes of my learning included as well.

Bast and Sekhmet, two feline Egyptian goddesses. At first they were the same deity, but then they separated into a goddess of fertility and household tasks (Bast the car ), and a goddess of war (Sekhmet the lioness).

Both designs will be available at Nashville!

I got that dog in me

Adding a new. I always wanted to do an Artsy Housewife piece but could not find one for me. When I saw this I knew I had to do it.

A cross stitch pattern on light green fabric. Yellow butterflies and flowers form a circle around the backstitched, cursive text "to be loved is to be changed". The dot over the eye and the tail of the "d" in changed are heart shaped

I'm part of a Valentine's day cross stitch bundle that's raising money for charities that we felt embodied love! It's running until Feb 14th, here's my contribution To Be Loved. More info on the charities and how to donate and get your patterns here: bit.ly/3Cu5RKn

So happy to come home to some new fabric

Will use to stitch Posion Heart frog, can’t wait

In my understanding it’s like an expo of needlework patterns and other things. It is a physical event in Nashville, but also the online stores put up the new designs on their website. Lots of designers release new patterns for the event.

Can’t go wrong the big birbs!

The Butterfly Sampler by Samplers and Primitive (trying to find some patterns for sampler September both reproductions and modern)

This is my first Market since picking up cross stitch and I under stand why people get hype for it. Making a list of patterns that I am putting down as wants- starting with Birdy Bowl by The Blue Flower
