Custom and personalised orders

I love making custom pattern or finished items! Feel free to contact me via Etsy conversation tools and learn all details.

The listing description for each pattern has the following sizing info: - Pattern size in stitches - Number of thread colors used - The approximate size of finished stitching for Aida #14 and #16 Important! Depending on the canvas/fabric you stitch on, the same pattern may produce a stitching if different sizes. The approximate finished sizes canvas #14 and #16 are listed in the pattern descriptions both in metric and imperial measurements. I would be happy to provide you with sizes for another canvas on request.

Gift wrapping and packaging

I am happy to do gift wrapping of your purchase on request :)

Can you make a custom pattern for me?

Yes! I love making custom designs and personalized designs! Prices and working time will vary depending on the size and intricacy of the design - please contact me to get more information. Here is a quote from one of the customers who ordered a custom pattern: "OMGosh, this pattern is so awesome, and super easy to use! It already looks amazing 😻 thank you so much for designing it for me 😺❤️"

I can't stitch! Can I order a finished piece based on your design?

Of course! Any digital pattern from the store can be ordered as a finished piece. Keep in mind that cross stitching is a slow art, so the making process can take up to several weeks. Feel free to contact me anytime to get a better estimate!

I'm in the midst of stitching this now. The pattern is easy to read and fun to work on. The seller was quick to respond with a question I had. The pattern is a PDF which was sent immediately to my email upon purchasing.

This design kept calling me back to it. It's a pdf download and includes a book of stories about the creatures in the design. It'll be fun reading it to my grandchildren after stitching each creature--sort of a SAL or monthly stitch along kind of thing.
