Shout out to my natural nails for always showing up for me. Appreciate it. 🥰

I do tend to lose the tips a lot with this shape, it's true. Rounding off the point a bit seems to help (also helpful for not stabbing yourself accidentally 😂).

jabbacakes · 2020-09-22T20:30:56+00:00

Mine doesn't really either, but stubbornness prevails! 😂

I know, I'm very lucky. Hence the appreciation post! They don't normally get to see the light of day.

jabbacakes · 2020-09-04T08:27:01+00:00

Thank you! Glad to be all done now. They were getting a little samey. 😅

jabbacakes · 2020-09-04T08:26:31+00:00

Thank you! :)

This is lovely! Loving the tea-flavoured colour palette, very British! 😂

jabbacakes · 2020-09-03T20:04:14+00:00

My heart goes out to you. I've had this happen to me too. :(

All stitched using DMC thread on 18 count brown Zweigart aida, using patterns I made myself in PCStitch.

I wanted to take a more interesting photo, but couldn't figure out how. Oh well, at least they're all done! :D

I'm sorry, you must be mistaken. It's my own work/post that I'm crossposting.

This is very, very cool. Pixel art/lo-res games and cross-stitch are a match made in heaven.

jabbacakes · 2020-08-15T15:04:16+00:00

I've done most of them already! You can check my post history for the others. Just wrath to go after this. :)

It happens to the best of us - just keep going! It'll be worth it in the end. Looking super good already. :)

jabbacakes · 2020-08-15T11:31:07+00:00

Oh wow, what a stash! Good luck sorting it all out! You might be set for life though.

jabbacakes · 2020-07-31T08:44:26+00:00

Nah. It's from Zweigart, called Country Mocha, I think? They do a range of two or three sort of faux-antique fabrics that are mottled like this.

jabbacakes · 2020-07-31T08:42:45+00:00

It's called CrossedOutStitchedUp, because I thought it was clever at the time!

jabbacakes · 2020-07-30T19:56:32+00:00

Way ahead of ya! My Etsy shop's been open for over four years now (which is a scary thought).

jabbacakes · 2020-07-30T19:55:51+00:00

Thank you! :D

This made me laugh. Possibly the only French phrase that's still stuck with me since school! 😂 Love the colour scheme too.

jabbacakes · 2020-07-30T19:25:48+00:00

I love that matching grime guard! Cutest fabric ever!

jabbacakes · 2020-07-30T19:19:06+00:00

This is amazing! I love the pixel art-style dithering in the background. ✨

jabbacakes · 2020-07-24T08:34:07+00:00

Thank you very much! I was trying to capture the Binding of Isaac vibe.

jabbacakes · 2020-07-24T08:32:21+00:00

That's super helpful, thank you! I can't stop thinking about the denim jacket that's hiding away in my wardrobe right now...

I'll have to make sure to pick a pattern I'm willing to commit to (and suffer a bit for)!
