Cross Stitch The World

Winter is here, providing the opportunity to sit and stitch. It's calming, absorbing and good for mental health, as counted cross stitch creates focus for the task in hand, helping us to relax yet concentrate!

Designs are added to the site on regularly, so bookmark this page, or see the links below for Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram for updates!

"Stitching all things vintage"

I have been creating beautiful cross stitch designs from classic posters and old pictures since 2006. All are the same low price and sent to you as a PDF so you can print patterns anytime you you want to. It's very easy! As nothing is shipped, there's no waiting and no shipping fees.
