Cross Stitch Projects, Supplies, Fabric & Floss
Welcome to EverythingCrossStitch.com!

Hi all. Except for 2 strings that will show the raven pulling the shed, it is done. A recap- my sister gave me the pattern for Christmas 2025, and due to your advice- I asked her to buy me the fabric, which she graciously gave me. I made a number of changes- the snow- both in the “air” and “ground” are a combo of B5200 floss, Kreinik braid#4, and petite and regular white beads. I added red beads to the tree instead of stitching them, and I used the Kreinik +B5200 on the gifts and the “bows” are beads. The snowflake on the gift under the mouse is a Just Another Button button. 😆 Finally, the white parts of the raven and mouse Santa hats are white Bella Lusso Fleur de Paris. It took a while, but I made it my own. I love it, and it gave me a chance to thank my sister again. Let me know what you think. Here it is…

Today is Tuesday ……………………………………….…….. Good Morning, MJ 💕

Good Tuesday morning everyone. I hope all of you enjoyed the long weekend. We changed our minds and bbq'd baby back ribs instead of making a ham. The weather was perfect with not a cloud in the sky and 82 degrees. It was so nice after weeks of dreary gray, cold, and rain. Today promises to be the same. It's a trip to the store for those things you run out of at the end of the month. I am excited that I am almost finished with the second to last row on "Lady", too. I looked in my cross stitch journal and I've been working on her since October of 2024! Have a terrific Tuesday!

Good Morning Leviticus 27: 26 26 " However, a firstborn among animals, which as a firstborn belongs to the Lord, no one may consecrate; whether ox or sheep, it is the Lord's. Have A Bless Day!

Just checking if item is a kit with cloth & floss

Hi everyone, yep it's me again. I wanted to remember all the men and women who didn't come back and I knew a few, I know more who didn't come back mentally though. Sometimes it was safer for them. Others who didn't come back physically are few in my life but I pray that everyone here who knows both realize I thank their people from the bottom, of this stitchy heart. I'm marching in the parade today at the age of 56 (38 minutes long) I did this route many times in my youth. For baseball and scouts and my high school. But this year with so many things happening throughout these 5 years especially, I'm marching for my dad, (one who fought here, my uncle who is passed away; who came home but physically not so much mentally, for my friends James and Patsy who passed away months of each other in their 80s, who has a grandson who I also march for...he will participate next year. I have put some stitches in and I will post what I have been doing today. Well with all of us today I'm remembering a saying I read and one that most can't speak. Every time you see a flag wave remember it's the breath of those who sacrificed with their lives for our liberties and freedoms that we enjoy every day. I hope from now on, I try better everyday not to mock their sacrifices. TFL-Chris

Memorial Day is for honoring those military who died in service. Five of my classmates died in Vietnam.

Hello everyone! I'm hoping to start a new project in a couple of months. It's an American flag and is a very wide design -- I'll be stitching it on 16-count fabric ((actually 32-count stitched over 2 threads)) and design itself will be just under 44" wide. Because I seem, despite significant effort, to be unable to properly center a design I prefer to have 3" borders rather than the commonly recommended 2" borders. So, my fabric will be cut about 50 inches wide ((and about 32" deep/high)). I always use scroll rods, and have 48" wide scroll rods and a floor frame/stand that will accommodate that width. Because the fabric will be wider than the scroll rod I anticipate having to fold a bit of the fabric over at one end of the rod. It will be bulky but with the total width, I am thinking that while I'm working at one end of the design the bulk won't be bothersome or a problem. Once I reach perhaps half-way across the design, I can re-attach the fabric to the rods so that the folded part is at the other end of the design. Is this the best approach, or is there something else I should consider? I know that if I'm folding the fabric I can use slightly shorter scroll rods ((don't need full 48" width)) but I purchased the long rods so am likely to use them. I'm looking forward to starting the project but am intimidated by its size! Been purchasing floss -- almost 400 skeins!! -- a bit at a time for a couple of years to spread out the cost. Thanks for any thoughts, and encouragement!

Good Memorial Day Monday morning. A new week, a fresh start, and new beginnings. We are remembering quietly those family members who have served and are grateful for those who are currently serving. It will actually be sunny today and the low 80's and after days of gray and rain it will be very welcome. We are baking a ham and believe it or not -- a pumpkin pie, which we eat year round. Enjoy your day however you choose to celebrate.

Good Morning 1 Peter 2:17 17 "Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. "Honor the king." Have A Bless Day! Remember the ones who are in and out and pass and the family in the military. Thank you so much for my freedom.
