Completed! Sherlock Cross Stitch

Completed! Sherlock Cross Stitch from Hugs are Fun
I finally finished the Sherlock cross stitch using the Wee Little Stitches pattern. This is actually the first time I’ve ever done a project from someone else’s pattern. I started the Quilty Stitchalong but haven’t finished it.

It was interesting working from someone else’s pattern, this was also the first time I’ve ever done back stitching. I was so ready to be done
with the project that I wanted to skip it, but I’ll admit that it does add a nice finished quality.

This took a lot longer than I expected, but I’m really pleased with the outcome. Now to get this packed up and shipped off to RockIslander in Bermuda! Hopefully she likes it as much as I love my firefly needlebook she sent me!

      Cross stitch is pretty simple! I keep thinking I should put together a beginner’s guide, it’s really not as intimidating as it seems!

      It definitely takes a little bit of practice. I recently went back and looked at my first couple cross stitches and they are a huge mess. Once you get into a groove, it gets easier!

      Wee Little Stitches has almost every pattern imaginable! If there’s a show or movie you like, chances are they’ve got a pattern! 🙂
