When life gives you lemons… you cross stitch them in a cute design, apparently! At the beginning of May, the UK enjoyed a bank holiday Monday. I hoped to spend the extended weekend outdoors, enjoying long walks and maybe a day trip too. But first, I set my alarm for early Saturday morning, to go to the gym and start the weekend with a productive workout. 20 minutes into the training, my lower back decided it was a great time to flare up like it hasn’t in a long time. Well, I limped back home, and spent most of the weekend in bed. Frustrating, to say the least! To keep myself busy, I reached for a couple of DIY projects. One of them was this mini cross stitch set with a lemon design. It was quite fun to sew!

Continuing with Valentine’s Day crafts (you know that I love a seasonal DIY!), I recently completed yet another cross stitch project, from a kit I bought at TK Maxx. This mini set featured a cute jar filled with hearts. If that’s not a perfect DIY project for February evenings, I don’t know what is! I had fun cross stitching this design and managed to complete the project with no issues.

I can’t believe it’s almost Christmas. This year has just flown by! I’ve been in the Christmas spirit for ages (I’m one of those people who get in the festive mood on the first colder days in September), and finally, the holidays are pretty much here. So naturally, I’ve been enjoying Christmas themed crafts lately. This time, I completed yet another cross stitch kit, with the perfect design for this time of year. I thoroughly enjoyed cross stitching this small gingerbread man holding a candy cane!

Spring is just around the corner and I was in the mood for cross stitching a fresh, floral design. Luckily, I had one at hand! My most recently finished cross stitch project – from a pre-assorted DIY kit – features colourful flowers: daffodils, roses and tulips. I enjoyed sewing this vibrant picture, it felt perfect for this time of year. The kit didn’t let me down, with plenty enough yarn included. Yet another sewing success!

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may have noticed my passion for cross stitching. I started with a mini design featuring a fox in a winter hat, which sparked my love for the craft. Since then, I’ve completed loads of cute, colourful designs. In this post, I’m going to collate all of them – hopefully, it will inspire some of you to try a new craft too! So far, all of the cross stitch designs that I’ve finished came from assorted craft kits, which included all of the necessary supplies and instructions. A great way to learn something new!
