Are you depressed? Feeling down about the world? Then get a corgi! They'll keep you so busy, you won't have time to be sad!

Finished this @lolacrow.bsky.social piece a week ago. I used Diamanté floss three types of ways and etole one way to make the spooky spirit that outline and trail. I really enjoyed this one. #cross-stitch #crossstitch #crossstitching

Oh be careful, it looks like their shop is full of AI slop patterns. 😬

Amanda DeLong | BAD Stitch @badstitch.bsky.social · 1d

Thank you so much. I love your stitch, too!

Amanda DeLong | BAD Stitch @badstitch.bsky.social · 2d

Oh no! Look at us in the same boat on a river of tears. I'm so sorry. It's so hard and I don't wish these feelings on anyone. It's a long road and I hope you're able to find peace. Take your time and don't let anyone tell you how to grieve. Lots of warmth and love. <3

Thank you, bb! I love these repeating patterns. I like patterns like this because it's easy to get into a groove with them.

Hey! It's me, trying to see what you're stitching! Share your cross stitch projects below! Maybe find a new stitchy friend!

Not stitching much here, we're still in mourning at Casa DeLong for our best doggo, Ghost.
