Garden Belle

Garden Belle was inspired by my Flower Farm design. I really wanted to stitch more flowers, especially droopy flowers, after stitching on Flower Farm. Garden Belle incorporates a lot of beads in different sizes to add some extra texture and sparkle.

Flower Farm

Flower Farm started off as a drawing in my sketchbook. Originally inspired by cozy video games that incorporate farming. I loved the bright colors and blocky shapes of the flowers in the original art, and decided to turn it into this cross stitched piece. The three flowers in this design are a lily of the valley, a tulip, and a hyacinth.

Canary Yellow

This design features a bright yellow canary sitting on a holly branch. The background incorporates some diagonal patterned bands and quaker-like motifs. I wanted this piece to be very bright and cheerful. A perfect stitch for summer!
