Shop Update #1

What's New in the Shop!

Here it is; my first shop update.

I've been a busy beaver lately. I've made a new shop logo(displayed on the left hand side of the blog), renovated the way the blog looks,designed new charts, made some finishes, and started designing some new charts. New charts, you ask? Of course I'll show you!

Letter E

Letter E by EmnEllie

Continuing the Alphabet Series, I've finished the Letter E. This single color chart could be stitched as a decoration for your home, hung in a nursery, used as an accessory for your desk or office space, a present for a friend or family member, or even given as a housewarming gift.

Christmas Manger

Christmas Manger by EmnEllie

Snowflakes fall from the sky, past a Christmas ornament with traditional scenes of the season. The first band of the ornament has crosses, the second band has an angel with his trumpet. Band three has palm trees and a manger, band four has camels, and the following bands sport various other motifs.

Irish Welcome

Irish Welcome by EmnEllie

Céad míle fáilte; a hundred thousand welcomes in Gaelic. Intricate bands surround this cheerful Irish greeting. This could be stitched for your own house, placed on a desk, or given as a housewarming gift.

That's all!

I plan on posting my next shop update at the beginning of January, so keep an eye out for that. In the meantime, hope y'all have a lovely week, and I'll see everyone in my next weekly update. Until then,

Happy Stitching!

Meet Nikolai, and Eat Mississippi Pot Roast

Meet Nikolai Or at least, meet Nikolai's head. See that dark block of stitches in the middle? Yes, that is Nikolai's head. He has one of those warm Russian hats on, so he won't catch cold riding through this winter scene. I really like stitching in 10x10 squares, it's amazed me how much progress one can make when using this method. Russian hunting is absolutely stunning, but maybe it's time for a change soon. Here's my tentative plan: keep stitching on Russian Hunting until the end of January, then at the beginning of February put it away and start working on one of my other wips. We'll see. Mississippi Pot Roast If you've had this dish, you know it's heavenly. If you haven't had it, you're missing out. Simple as that! Beef, ranch dressing mix, pepperoncini peppers, and au jus. It sounds like a weird combo, but trust me- it is amazing. One of my all time favorite meals ever. The flavors mix together beautifully. There's r...

My Current Rotation

Cross Stitch Update Today I'd like to introduce you to my rotation. But first, let me explain how I choose what to stitch on everyday. I use a lottery system, mostly because I have a lot of wip's right now, and partly because I'm terrible at making decisions. I used to spend so much time agonizing over which one to stitch on. It also means that I spend a good amount of time on all of my wip's, not just the ones that are calling to me. I have gotten two finishes since I started using this system at the beginning of the year. I have seen some Flosstubers using an app, but my Mother and I thought that this would be much more fun after seeing Sitchin' Mommy use a similar system on her Flosstube channel for her Arbitrary August videos. The only day that I don't use the lottery is on Sunday. I stitch on whatever is calling to me on Sundays. I used eight glass beads- the kind you buy at the dollar store- and labeled them A through H with a Sharpie. Then I...

So here is my progress from June 16th- June 26th Since the 16th I stitched on: J is for Jack O Lantern Leilani Still Life with Tangerines Paris Market J is for Jack O Lantern I am in the center of the pumpkin right now. The floss colors are so autumnal. Found the perfect needle minder! J is for Jack O Lantern Leilani I am always excited to draw Leilani in my lottery! She is my first Mirabilia and I absolutely love her. The first time I saw her was when I was watching a Flosstube video. I gasped she was so beautiful. When my Mother said she was a freebie, I was over the moon. The Caron Waterlillies are a joy to use. I made some substitutions here and there and this is not the called for fabric. Leilani Still Life with Tangerines Luca S hits it outta the park ea...
