Day 1 of my stitchy advents brought a festive CCS bookmark kit with gold-trim fabric and floss (the pattern has a rabbit, fox, and Christmas motifs), plus the BNS “Winter Hare” pattern and a perforated project bag. Such a cozy pair today!

Caterpillar Cross Stitch advent day 1 is a festive bookmark project. Including white fabric with gold trim bookmark to stitch on, and green and brown floss to get started. The Winter Hare pattern from Black Needle Society - picturing a rustic hare jumping over a winter scene with stars in the sky. Also included a perforated plastic project bag.

Cross stitched rendering of the reaction meme image of the Disappointed Cricket Fan, Muhammad Sarim Akhtar, a man standing with his hands on his hips, his face looking straight ahead with an expression of disgust. Cross stitched rendering of the reaction meme image of a green monster with blue eyes, arms hanging exhaustedly at its side, looking ahead with an expression of weariness. Cross stitched rendering of a meme reaction image of Willem Dafoe, a bearded man with blue eyes, looking up at the stitched year "2025" with a look of desperate exasperation. A collection of five framed cross stitch ornaments hanging on a tree, meme reaction images from 2025. From previous images in this post, there is a green monster, a disappointed cricket fan, a man staring upwards in exasperation. Additionally, there is a meme reaction image of a barbie doll looking disgustedly at the year 2025, and a meme reaction image of a hand drawn black and white snowman-like character, looking with sadness and forlorn at the stitched year "2025".

Tea’s hot, cookies are warm. Cozy days are made for creating and fresh ideas. (And pretending there's no snow on the ground)

I will be going on vacation mode on Etsy Friday evening to prep for the amazing Beeyoutiful Sip and Stitchery's Holiday Kickoff Party! I will be back online afterwards, but if there's something you've been eyeing, make sure to grab it now in case it sells!

Nightshade is a beautiful color, and I have just a few mis-dyed pieces that ended up with some specks of pinkish purple on them. They are now in the shop at a discount - come check them out.

This is also the reason the abbreviation for ‘hertz’ is ‘Hz,’ as it’s named after Heinrich Rudolf Hertz.

Billie - the old lady cat - has figured out how to turn on the TV in the middle of the night. Does she realize she's doing it? Probably. It may be hard to prove, but the circumstantial evidence is pretty solid.

Another 1000 stitches this weekend on The Grand Library - I've hit a spot with a lot of large color chunks so it's really moving along.

The next part of the #twigsandteaSAL is out! This week's drop is small— it can either be a break if you're caught up, or a chance to catch up a little if you've fallen behind! ❤️ #crossstitch

You can totally still join the Twigs and Tea SAL, by the way! 🍁 🫖

About 24 hours in, and it’s looking like coffee! I'm aiming to extract as much color as possible, so it’ll keep soaking and occasionally simmering for a few more days.

Just a few hours in, and I can already see some color! Walnuts produce a rich brown shade, with darkness depending on the dye-to-fabric ratio. This is when I get really excited!

Here's a peek behind the scenes of my natural dye process. This giant pot is filled with walnuts. Now, we wait and see what develops. I'll keep you updated!

Starting a HUGE store restock, so if there's something you've been wanting that has been sold out or not offered in the fabric you prefer, let me know!
