5 out of 5 starsBeautiful interpretations of the book covers! I just started stitching and the directions are very clear and easy to follow. The color chart was also extremely helpful, particularly the inclusion of stitch counts!

5 out of 5 starsI’m still stitching but the pattern is really easy to follow (coming from someone who started cross stitching only 2 months ago). The only difficulty is the closeness in shades of colour which can trip you up while working. I love this pattern sm, but couldn’t find 16ct at my craft store and don’t know how to finish it off as a bookmark so I’m doing it on 14ct and plan to frame it. I’m having a lot of fun!

Oh your work looks lovely!! 14ct works just as well, you'll just have even more of a final product to love! Thank you for your purchase and feedback! :) Happy stitching!

4 out of 5 starsLovely little bookmark pattern, the perfect size! My only critiques is that the pattern was a little hard to follow, with very similar symbols placed beside one another, and that there were no further instructions within the PDF on how to construct/finish a bookmark using it. No worries there as I have prior experience doing so, but for people new to making them, this could be a little trickier :] other than that, gorgeous, and very very happy with the result!

Hi Amy, thank you for your purchase, your finished product looks beautiful!! And thank you for your feedback, I have actually gone in and updated my pattern so that there is a greater contrast between symbols. In order to keep the cost to a minimum, and due to the wide variety of finishing options to choose from, I decided not to add in further instructions to the PDF or the list of receivables within the listing. However, I do see how it could be a valuable addition, and moving forward, I will look into finding a happy middle ground that could work for everyone! Thank you again, Susan :)

Frequently asked questions
How do I price my items?
As a way to keep all of my pricing consistent, I price my items based on the number of stitches, divided by 1000. For example, my bookmarks are 36 stitches wide by 108 stitches tall. 3,888 stitches in total! (hellooo details!) Which means all of my bookmarks will be priced at $3.88 USD!
Can I order a physical finished cross stitch instead of the digital pattern download?
At the moment, no! I'm currently spending all of my free time designing and testing cross stitch patterns for digital download only, and do not have the capacity to take on selling physical, finished cross stitches. If this changes in the future, I will update this question!
Do I take recommendations?
Absolutely! Have a favorite book you want to stitch into a bookmark, or a travel location you'd like in a postage stamp? Let me know! I'm always open to new ideas that fit within the categories I already have listed on my etsy shop (i.e bookmarks or travel stamps). Don't be afraid to shoot me a message with requests or ideas!
How do I create my designs?
I use a reference image, whether it be a book cover, a picture I took on vacation, or just random item I'm inspired by, and I color match it using my vast collection of DMC threads. Then I use Adobe Illustrator and InDesign, and a custom symbol/number key I created myself, to create the pixelated design and final PDF you will receive upon purchase. Then, to double check my design and create a more 'thread like' final image, I redraw the design in FlossCross, which I then also use to generate a pdf that is fully compatible with MarkUpR-XP. This PDF should also be compatible with Pattern Keeper, but I do not have the tools to test that out myself and list it as a guarantee.
