Big sleepy… won’t stop me from sewing a little though! #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

I’ve gotten a lot more busy as of late, so my progress on my projects will be significantly less; cross stitch should be a relaxing, slow hobby anyway! ^w^ #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

Progress! Though funnily enough, it doesn’t look TOO different from yesterday, but alas, such is the nature of cross stitch haha- #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

Finally starting on the other colours ^w^ #crossstitch #wip

I’m genuinely so amazed how great this piece already looks, and I’m only on the first page with only one colour! Man, cross stitching is so magical sometimes… #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop on Etsy!

I ran out of thread for this set, so I’m moving to my charity project, but I’m looking forward to showing all of you this completed set in the future!! #crossstitch #wip

The colours worked out! Unfortunately I am running out of thread again aaaaa #crossstitch #wip

Hmmm… this is the first time I’ve looked at a colour I’ve tested in this set and went ‘That might not be right.’ A bit nerve wracking for sure but I just gotta see how it looks next to the other colours first! #crossstitch #wip

I think I’m getting a little bit faster with each new part of the set! Still a pain to use white thread though hahah I consistently slow down when I get to this part #crossstitch #wip

Third part of the set has begun! I’m literally buzzing with excitement because I’m more than halfway through now!!! #crossstitch #wip

Back to white thread TwT I may have regrets on choosing white Aida for this hahah- #crossstitch #wip

More detail creeping in! Side note, hope everyone had or is having a wonderful Valentines! #crossstitch #wip

Working on the second part of my newest set! It is funny how it just… kinda looks like nothing but a square at first haha- #crossstitch #wip

White thread on white aida is a pain hahahha- It’s also the first time in a while I’ve sewn without a q-snap; it’s funky trying to control tension without it! #crossstitch #wip

Working on my next set of designs! It took a few days for me to get happy with the final design, including asking help from my friends to smooth out the kinks with parts of it, but I’m really excited to show you the finished set once I get there! #crossstitch #wip

The bookmarks side by side! They’re completely different but somehow they feel similar to me… Could just be me though haha- #crossstitch #bookmark #bunny Patterns by me! :D

My next bookmark is done! Different in style from the first one h made for sure! What do you guys reckon? :D #crossstitch #bookmark #geometric Pattern by me!

Fortunately I managed to go to the craft store today, so I didn’t have to wait too long to resume stitching! Almost done with this one too; I’m very excited to see how my design shapes up in reality ^w^ #crossstitch #wip

Ran out of thread for this too but I started a new project for charity :D I adore how it actually already is starting to look like… well, something! #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

Finished off this piece for charity! I have a lot whole stack of pieces I oughta send off soon haha- #crossstitch #horse #galaxy Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

Tiny bit more progress, but alas I ran out of the blue haha- Switching over to my other project for the time being! #wip #crossstitch

The previous project whet my appetite for design so I’ve gone and started a new one! It’s completely different in style from the other one though, but that’s the joy of designing and experimenting ^w^ #crossstitch #wip

There we go, the finished product! Just a bunny chillin :D Very happy how this turned out; I’ve another bookmark planned already! #crossstitch #bunny #autumn #bookmark Pattern by me :D

You know, I do miss stitching on plastic canvas- It’s such an odd texture and feel; it’s calming in its own way :) Anyway! Almost done with my design; I should be able to show the full design to everyone tomorrow! #crossstitch #wip

A small preview of an original pattern! I’m gonna try to post more of my designs from now on :D I’m so excited to show you what this is when it’s ready!! #wip #crossstitch

Quick game of #Splendor today! Of course I lost again TwT The streak continues hahaha- #boardgames

I am having a truly awful run with solo plays, hahahahaha- I gave Star Tycoon solo mode a shot, and I fell 5 points short of winning, arghhh! I’ll get ‘em next time though >:3 #boardgames

Played a solo run of #TrekkingThroughHistory on Hard mode! I lost, of course 😭 I’ll beat the dang Historian eventually! #boardgames

It was an awful scorcher today! I felt pretty faint and my partner felt a bit sluggish, so we didn’t do much besides lounge about and play a quick round of Azul. I will never not be terrible at this game, solidly losing at 79-64 🤣 #boardgames #azulboardgame

Blegh I ran out of thread again TwT Forced to rest for a few days since I can’t head to the shops, I suppose! #crossstitch #wip #horse

First page is done so now we’re officially on the home stretch! #crossstitch #wip #horse Pattern by StitchesLoversShop on Etsy!

Slow progress but it’s still progress! :D #crossstitch #wip #horse Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

Just having another rest day! This time we played #TrekkingTheWorld! I got thoroughly trounced again; I got way too distracted reading the backs of the destination cards TwT #boardgames

I reckon I’ve done enough of the head to mark this as a #horse! :D #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop on Etsy!

I was meant to rest another day but man, I truly do miss sewing when I’m not doing it haha- I only did a little bit today to tide my restlessness over; I spent most of today resting! #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

Taking a short rest from sewing to play some board games! Villagers is my partner’s favourite tableau builder, which is evident because they crushed me 119 to 65 😅 #boardgames

I think it’s taking shape well enough to tell what it is! Almost at least! #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop

Still plodding away at this! I’ll give a clearer pic when it starts to look like something, hehe~ #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop!

It’s always so exciting but also so funny when a piece still doesn’t look like anything; but that’s okay, it should take shape soon! #crossstitch #wip Pattern by StitchesLoversShop
