All 2025 #crossstitch patterns! I released less this year than previous years, but not pictured is the time spent restitching and updating previous designs.

Let me know which is your favourite!

Bonus: can you guess mine?

As soon as I got this club in my #spotifywrapped I knew it would translate perfectly to art and #crossstitch

Am currently posting this instead of doing housework, so it's really just coming full circle.

This is a gift, and won't be available as a #crossstitch pattern for months, but I think I can share a little peek, because I really enjoyed how these ferns came out today

Okay, be real with me, how many #crossstitch patterns did you actually buy this year?

And you know what my follow-up question is, right? 😉

#stitchsky #spotifywrapped
Text: You bought 15 new patterns this year. Have you started any of them?

I sincerely hope this one isn't actually true for anyone. 🐸

Welcome to my annual tradition of turning my #spotifywrapped into #crossstitch memes. Because that's a normal thing to do, right?

Starting with the least unhinged of the lot:

Text: 45,002 You made 45,002 stitches. That's over 200 hours!

This month on Monster Aerialists: I've been working on her skin lately. Slow going, but so worth it!

Counter-point: before and after backstitch 😉

Seriously though, it totally depends on the design. Some are designed without backstitch in mind, and I think adding it in that case is usually unnecessary. While pieces made with backstitch intended look more crisp and finished afterwards.

When black aida and glitch is my "relax at night" and "rest my eyes" #crossstitch project, that's when I know I've been working on far too many tiny WIPs lately 😅

Design is FUCK by @theretrostitcher.bsky.social

The boyfriend is out with mates tonight, so I've got a glass of Jim Beam, the Hamilton soundtrack on full blast, and settled in for some bobbinating 🎉 Party in the Mine household tonight

This is an advanced pattern, containing speciality threads, beads, blends, fractional stitches, and a whole lot of counting. But by goddess she is worth it.

I cordially invite you all to the Monster Aerialist show. All humans are welcome, but we can't guarantee your safety from the performers... First up we see the gorgeous Witch in the Moon, performing the lyra skill aptly named "girl in the moon".

💫 I'm so pleased to introduce you to the Space Dolphins! 🐬

In lovely shades of blue and purple, these magical space creatures feel most at home in pods circling planets like living rings.

Raise your hand if you've ever been certain you had a backup skein, but then you run out of the colour and realise you didn't

🙋‍♀️

An emergency supply run wasn't on my to-do list for today. Whoops

#tbt Throwback Thursday: This time two years ago I released Sneaky Beaky Foxy Woxy and I'm still obsessed with the orange and pink colour combo.

Plus is comes with 2 other snarky text variations
See them here: echoandmine.etsy.com/listing/1470...
