Cross Stitch Designs to Mix and Match.......Let your mind drift away with needle and thread.
Growing up with Mum a professional dressmaker, I have been stitching since I could hold a needle.....First a plastic one sewing through the punched holes in cardboard pictures (anyone remember those?), then fashions for Barbie, my own clothes and costumes then cross stitch !
Voila ! I had found my escape.
It allowed me to set my mind adrift to travel where it would as the needle drifted back and forth across the design. Walking my gorgeous Border Collie along Victoria's stunning surf beaches, ideas for my own designs came rolling in like waves onto the shore.
More than I could ever stitch in my lifetime but those designs were clamouring to become patterns none the less....Threads Adrift Design was born !
I hope these patterns and kits will give you the same joy they give me and allow you small moments of escape in your daily hustle and bustle in which to clear your mind and refresh your soul.
All of my designs aim to give you a bookmark or sampler made up of multiple motif design blocks you can mix and match for endless cross stitch creating.
They make great personalised greeting or gift cards, bookmarks, embellishments for clothing pockets/collars, journal covers, cushions etc.
You know that dear friend who loves chess, music and roaring log fires ? There is something here for them. The new baby due soon ? The beach lover ? The teddy collector ? You'll find something to suit them.
Happy hunting. Cheers Mandy.
