The power went out for 12 hours, and I thought to myself: Is this how they cross stitched in the olden days? Then I realized I was using a lithium-battery-operated flashlight, reading my cross stitch pattern off a tablet, while watching YouTube on my smartphone...

Happy 310 Day 🖤 I didn't understand when someone said it was 310 Day until I looked at the calendar. But happy 310 Day to all my cross stitch pals 😂

I finished cross stitching Goth Moth from Satsuma Street! It was stitched on Mill Hill perforated paper, with beads and sequins. I really like how it turned out and the kit came with everything I needed, minus the 310 (black) floss.

Sometimes I wonder if I just like to punish myself for the love of cross stitch. I don't know why I ordered this behemoth of a stamped cross stitch kit from Painting Fairy, but I love it so much. Is this considered a "lifetime" project? Can I get this done in 2026?

Love colour block diamond paintings? This is for youuuu! ❤️ Strawberry Friend by Cherriuki 30x30cm, 13 colours, square drills I got this Jaded Gem Shop diamond painting in a retreat goody bag in 2024, but it's available on their site if you want it. It's so cute and was really quick to finish!

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 25/12/2025

If you haven't tried a Mill Hill Buttons & Beads cross stitch kit, this is your sign to try one in 2026. *peer pressure* The beading on this one turned out gorgeous but halfway through I was like, "can this be done soooon". 😅

I finished cross stitching my Mill Hill Gingerbread House Globe ornament just in time, then realized after taking this photo I forgot to attach the charm.🎄I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday!

Why does Etsy think I want cross stitch patterns of queefs.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 05/12/2025

Does anyone know of any cute/weird cross stitch SALs coming up?

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

For cross stitch, you could use an app to keep track of your pattern like Pattern Keeper or Markup RXP. That really helps!

I remember buying this Diamond Art Club diamond painting kit and people saying they were counting the ghosts as they were putting drills down... I never did that so I don't know how many ghosts there are. 😆 ✨ Spirit Lands - Castle by Moonbound Studio 50.7x83.8cm, round drills, 37 colors with 3 ABs

I received my stamped cross stitch order from 5Stitch (formerly 121Stitch). 🌟 I ended up getting Stardew Valley Junimo’s Four Seasons in Frames by Wonder4Pixels in 16 count. I'm planning a video to talk about it more in-depth when I have some of it completed.

Making progress on my Long Dog pattern! 32% done, just finished this birrrrb.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 23/11/2025

We have another finished diamond painting, this time from the now-defunct DIYMoonshop! This was a round drill kit, but I can't remember the title or artist. 😐 Honestly, DIYMoonshop had some really great artists when I started diamond painting, but I feel like the quality wasn't worth it at all.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 21/11/2025

Sharing another diamond painting finish from Jaded Gem Shop! This is the cropped version of the diamond painting kit called E-Girl by Chao Illustrations. ✨ 60x60cm, square drills This was such a cozy piece of artwork and I loved watching it come together!

Progress on my first Long Dog cross stitch: A frog, a squirrel (?), a rabbit and a bird wearing a hat taking a poop? I'm 4,530 stitches in, which is 8% done apparently. See you in ten years when it's done.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

Haha I wish! So my friend owns the shop, Jaded Gem Shop, she works with artists to turn their work into diamond paintings. ❤️❤️❤️ Lots of people also use cross stitch patterns to turn them into diamond paintings too!

I feel like it wouldn't be difficult if you have a sewing machine. You should totally try! <3

Witchy Stitcher but not cross stitch... Diamond painting!

Your grime guard is so pretty!!

That looks cute! What about trying less strands for the next one and leaving a 1 square border around it? I think they sell black plastic canvas?

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 09/10/2025

I finished another cross stitch that sat as a WIP (work in progress) for probably a year now! ❤️ Cross Stitch Pattern: Tokyo Tower by Needleminder Lair on Etsy ❤️ 2 strands on 14 count white Aida I don't know what I'll cross stitch next but I'm due for something less colorful.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Okey! This cross stitch is done! I LOVE sunflowers, so this was really cute to work on, and the farm reminds me of driving to visit my partner.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 08/09/2025

I'm *almost* done with this Mill Hill Button & Beads cross stitch kit! Just some beading and back stitching left.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 05/09/2025

Okay, my one tip (that I got from a pal on Instagram), if you want to cross stitch with Kreinik, is to use short strands. Or else you will hate it.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 26/08/2025

Yess! The lady at the store said to try to use thread conditioner, and another on Instagram said to keep the floss short. I'm hoping these tips work out, I'll let you know!

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 26/08/2025

This will be my first time cross stitching with Krenik. Kinda nervous.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 26/08/2025

I love that so much! I have a Long Dog on my to-do list, but seeing this makes me want to start it today haha

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 21/08/2025

Finished! The last photo is of only the cross stitching so you can see the difference of what the backstitching and beads do to the finished piece. If you like cross stitch I recommend Mill Hill Buttons & Beads kits, they have so many different designs (I'm a big fan of their fall/Halloween ones)!

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 17/08/2025

Another update on my latest cross stitch project. ❤️ Almmmoosst done the stitching then beading next! Maybe I'll be able to finish it by the end of the weekend? Maybe.

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 14/08/2025

You're right the one on the right will help the colors pop more, especially the bottom two colors... BUT I really like the left fabric a lot too. Life is so hard hahahaha

Bev Bee @bevbeecrafts.bsky.social · 12/08/2025

Thank you so much! I think my phone went a little overboard with the saturation, it's less bright in person
