A hare in a swirling field and sky behind
My latest hand embroidery
Today we had a garden visit from a hare. Yesterday, a handsome young fox boldly came right up to my window, looking very healthy indeed in its nice red coat. I'm not sure we'll be seeing the hare here at the house again soon.

Stamped cross stitch of a deer with decorated antlers. The face is fully stitched, the neck is almost complete, and one antler is stitched with baubles and shading while the other antler still shows mostly the neon printed guide. The chest area remains unstiched.
Face finished, neck nearly stitched, and just one antler fully done 🦌✨ The other antler is still neon chaos, glaring at me like “when’s my turn?” Slowly but surely he’s transforming from floating head to full stitched stag. #stampedcrossstitch #crossstitchprogress #crossstitch

Stamped cross stitch of a deer with lanterns and baubles hanging from its antlers. The deer’s face is partly stitched with shading and details starting to come through, but it is not finished. The chest area shows only the bright stamped guide with no stitches yet.
shading stitched in, but he’s definitely glaring at me for ignoring him. Chest is still all neon guide—haven’t even started that chaos yet. One slow stitch at a time, we’ll get there! #stampedcrossstitch #crossstitchprogress #crossstitch #embroidery #wip #fibreart #handmade #skystitch #needlecraft

My first foray back into cross stitching turned out better than I expected.

A seaside-themed cross stitch piece in progress. The border features a whimsical alphabet stitched around the edges, starting with A on the top left and wrapping clockwise. Colorful seaside motifs fill the interior: two fish, a crab, a sailboat, a beach hut, a kite, and waves. At first glance, the alphabet appears complete, but something seems subtly off.
Seaside scene stitched, fish happy, kites soaring, and the alphabet’s all there… maybe?
Something’s not quite right. Think you can catch it before I break out the frogging needle? 🐸🧵

#crossstitch #ttrpg #horror #dnd #needlework #skystitch #pixelart #art #needleart #LegendsofAvantris #OnceUponAWitchlight #GrickoGrimgrin
A colorful seaside-themed cross-stitch sampler featuring nautical motifs like a crab, fish, boats, kites, an octopus, and a lighthouse. The border contains the alphabet in a whimsical font, now completed from A to Z around the frame, with each letter stitched in alternating colors. The central area remains unstitched.
tonight’s #crossstitch update: letters V to Y have docked safely, but Z’s still lost at sea and the top border’s emptier than a lifeboat after a seagull attack. full steam ahead to alphabet completion—once the tide brings in A to G.
#UKstitcher #skystitch #fibreart #needlecrafts
A nearly completed cross stitch project with a seaside theme. The design includes nautical elements like fish, sailboats, a crab, a lighthouse, kites, a beach hut, candy-like borders, and an octopus. A colorful alphabet border runs around the edge. The previously missing letter “V” has now been stitched in its rightful place between “U” and “W” on the right-hand vertical border.
tonight’s #crossstitch update:
the left-side alphabet has finally shown up, fashionably late but fully stitched. R to U now standing proudly like they’re auditioning for Countdown. the middle’s still empty—probably on a tea break.

A colourful seaside-themed cross-stitch project featuring a striped beach hut, an orange crab, two blue fish, two sailing boats, two kites, a lighthouse, and a yellow octopus. The design is framed with a green border and an alphabet stitched around the edges. The alphabet now runs A to Z, with small fish motifs separating some letters. There are also a few red lifebuoy motifs added within the frame. The centre of the project is still empty, ready for more stitching
today’s #crossstitch update:
V has been found lurking suspiciously between U and W, like it was never missing at all.
the fish are celebrating. the alphabet is finally whole. no frogging today, just stubbornness, snacks, and seaside vibes.

A cozy crafting corner featuring a cross-stitch frame with a project in progress, a flexible lamp with a magnifying glass, a basket filled with crafting supplies, and a dark bookshelf with books and hanging embroidery floss. A large leafy plant sits by the window, and a pair of blue headphones rests on a black leather chair next to a soft, beige cus
Drinking my morning cup of Gyokuro while my stitching corner stares back in judgment. If sorting threads counts as housework, I’m basically winning at life.

A nearly complete seaside-themed cross stitch sampler. The green outer border and inner box outlines are finished. Small stitched scenes include a red and blue striped beach hut with a seagull on top, an orange crab, two blue fish in yellow-bordered frames, two sailing boats, two colourful kites, a yellow octopus, a red and white lighthouse, and rows of wrapped sweets. A red and white lifebuoy is stitched near the middle. The stitched alphabet now runs almost fully down the right-hand side and across the top and bottom borders, finishing with a decorative “Z” in the bottom right corner.
Today’s #crossstitch update: the alphabet now goes A to U, V’s MIA like it jumped ship, and the rest are chilling like nothing happened. Fish are thriving while V’s floating somewhere lost at sea. Frogging 2morrow to rescue it from Davy Jones’ locker. #UKstitcher #alphabetcrime #skystitch #fibrearts
A cross-stitched seaside-themed sampler on fabric. The design includes colorful stitched images: a striped beach hut with a seagull on top, a crab, a sailboat, fish, kites, a lighthouse, an octopus, and a red and white lifebuoy. Each image is framed in red, green, blue, or yellow borders. The upper right side features a stitched alphabet border that now extends from H to T in alternating colors. The center rectangular area is still unstitched.
Today’s #xstitch progress: stitched five more letters and briefly considered declaring “Q” the final boss of the alphabet. Not much done, but every stitch is a victory-especially when the thread insists on forming knots like it’s in a sailor’s union. #crossstitch #UKstitcher #fibrearts #skystitch
Alt text: A cross-stitched seaside sampler on fabric, nearly complete. It features detailed stitched images including a striped beach hut, a crab, sailboats, fish, kites, an octopus, a lighthouse, and a lifebuoy. The alphabet border on the top right now extends from the letter J through to O in colorful thread. Each image is framed with colorful borders in green, red, yellow, and blue. The center rectangular area remains unstitched.
today’s cross stitch update: only got from K to O—tonight the alphabet was less ABC and more “actually, be cranky.” progress crawling, thread tangled, spirit held together by snacks and stubbornness. #crossstitch #UKstitcher #fibrearts #xstitch #skystitch
A nearly completed cross-stitched seaside sampler on fabric. Most rectangular sections are filled with colorful designs including a beach hut, a crab, two sailboats, two fish, a lighthouse, an octopus, and two kites. A new addition since the previous update is a red and white life preserver in the middle left section. Decorative borders with green, red, yellow, and blue thread surround each motif. A heart-shaped silver needle minder is attached to the upper right side of the fabric.
today’s cross stitch update: not much progress, but we’ve added a lifebuoy and a couple of fish—just enough to meet the minimum stitch quota and keep the seaside health & safety inspector happy. #crossstitch #UKstitcher #fibreart #needlecrafts #skystitch

A cross-stitched fabric with a seaside-themed sampler design. The border outline is complete, with various rectangular sections framed in green, red, yellow, and blue stitching. New additions since the previous image include a blue fish in a yellow-bordered box near the bottom center and a small red and white boat in a pink-bordered box at the bottom left. Other elements like a crab, beach hut, kite, sailboat, lighthouse, and octopus are also stitched. A silver heart-shaped needle minder is attached to the fabric in the top right corner.
today’s stitching: one fish, one boat, no biscuits. the seaside sampler gains two new residents—the fish is settling in nicely, the boat’s parked awkwardly, and the crab remains the undisputed mayor. #crossstitch #UKstitcher #skystitch #needlecraft #wip #beachyvibes

A piece of cross-stitched fabric featuring a nautical and beach-themed design. It includes images of a beach hut, a crab, a sailboat, a kite, a lighthouse, and a yellow octopus. There are several rectangular frames bordered with various colored stitches, some filled with motifs and others left empty, likely for future stitching. The border is stitched in green, and the initials “L” and “N” are in the bottom right corner along with a stitched heart-shaped needle minder attached to the fabric.
today’s cross stitch progress: border outline done and all the boxes ready to fill—this seaside sampler’s looking less like fabric anarchy and more like a very polite British beach holiday. that crab’s definitely got a deck chair with his name on it. #crossstitch #UKstitcher
#needlecraft #skystitch
A partially completed cross-stitch project on beige fabric featuring a nautical theme. The design includes colorful bordered sections, some of which are filled with motifs like a beach hut with a seagull, a crab, a sailboat, a kite with a sun, a red and white lighthouse, and a yellow octopus. There are several empty bordered areas yet to be stitched, and the top right corner includes stitched letters “K,” “L,” and “M.” A decorative needle holder shaped like a heart is pinned to the fabric on the right side.
Today’s cross-stitch progress: crushed it on borders and boxes. No new sea creatures, just some prime real estate for them to eventually live in. The crab and octopus are silently judging my pace.

A cross-stitched design featuring a small blue and white striped beach hut with a red roof and red double doors, bordered by a green stitched frame. A white seagull with a yellow beak and feet is perched on the top of the hut. The stitching is done on a light-colored fabric.
Beach hut is done! Didn’t finish the rest because I was too busy stabbing fabric and arguing with a smug little seagull. It looks wonky, but blame the stretched frame, not my rage stitching. #CrossStitch #StabbyHobby #SeagullSabotage #Skystitch
A partially completed cross-stitch project on a light-colored fabric held in an embroidery frame. The design features colorful, beach-themed images including a striped beach hut, a crab, a sailboat, a kite, and a sun. Each image is framed with different colored borders, and there are several rectangular spaces left to be filled. A decorative needle minder shaped like a heart is attached to the top left corner of the fabric.
Making slow progress on my beachy cross-stitch because *someone* (me) had to do boring adult stuff like laundry and emails instead of stitching tiny crabs and kites. Hoping for more thread and fewer spreadsheets tomorrow! #CrossStitch #WIP #StitchingLife #skystitch
A close-up of a cross stitch sampler in progress, featuring seaside-themed elements like crabs and fish, stitched in bright colors on a linen fabric. Some sections of the design are complete, while others are still in progress.
Sunday afternoon: tea in one hand, cross stitch in the other, pretending I’m a peaceful, productive adult. Reality: just stabbing fabric and hoping for the best. 🧵☕ #CraftyChaos #StitchingSunday #skystitch

A completed cross stitch biscornu design. The pattern is geometric with flowers in the corners, in dark green and gold, and enclosed in a back stitched green square.
#biscornu stitching is complete on this day of the equinox! Now all I need to do is stitch it together 😬 and hope it comes out well enough to gift at the retreat next weekend. Stay tuned!
