Within spirals of sweet-scented magic, ribbons of candy dance upward from the cauldron, crafting themselves into edible enchantments.

I particularly love the nudibranches

Between the starlit night and glittering cosmos, a star swayed and teased its way across asteroid fields, luring an earthbound dreamer to imagine unseen companions.

#CrossStitch #StitchSky #Cats
A cross stitch of some houses and trees in a row with a crescent moon above them. Next to the houses is a black cat on its back playing with a star on a string. Above this are a rocket ship and UFO. Higher up are some twinkling planets, the string weaving in between them. At the very top is a black cat sitting on a ringed planet controlling the string toy.

My newest finish, part 2 of Tiny Fruits! 🫐

#crossstitch #stitchsky #blueberries
A blueberry themed cross stitch piece set against a mini cocotte full of blueberries on a red gingham tablecloth with white butterflies printed on the squares. The photo is unedited (aside from any potential forced editing done by Samsung phones nowadays) but taken using a flashlight to produce an overly lit foreground with deep shadows. The flashlight causes a vignette effect around the outside of the image. The blueberry themed cross stitch piece shown closer to show details, a 2.2" wooden embroidery hoop painted metallic blue and sprayed over with Mod Podge glitter sealer with alternating flower and leaf shaped spangles glued around the outside. The piece itself is stitched on blue 14 count iridescent aida cloth and uses metallic threads and glass seed beads with additional flower spangles stitched on the blueberries and iridescent sparkles glued about the front. Set against a beaded table runner in light colors.
