Destiny 1 Stitch-a-long
Geek the Halls
Years ago, back in 2015, I made a trio of geeky ornaments. Years ago, I didn't know how to save my patterns as pdfs. (Tragic.) But that has all changed, my friends. I present to you three geeky ornaments for your crafting pleasure: a Triforce Tree, Santa Traveler, and Santa Chief. I only attached the... Continue Reading →
Cheat O’ Plenty
Way back in February, I had an exchange with the Strong Bad Twitter account. https://twitter.com/CraftingGeek/status/1356379375072018432 It took eight months of procrastinating, but I finally got around to stitching this up! Those of you will eagle eyes will notice that I had to change the pattern slightly from my original design. That's because when I had... Continue Reading →
Three times the candy, er, emblems

Feeling a little tension
Over the years, I have many questions from fellow stitchers wondering how I get my stitches to look so puffy. Do I railroad my stitches? (No.) Do I use a laying tool? (Nope.) Do I use magic? (Alas, no.) The only trick I have is paying attention to the tension I use when I'm stitching.... Continue Reading →
What’s In a Game?
In this house, there are no such things as console wars. Between Mike and me, we've owned everything from a Commodore 64 to a Gamecube to a PS2 to an Xbox Series S. The simple fact is that I just love video games. Today's post includes three charts. I decided to go with the older... Continue Reading →
These Emblems are SPICY
So, yesterday was Bungie Day and Tuesday was the start of the Solstice event in Destiny 2 which meant that a lot of excellent emblems made their debut. I normally don't make emblem designs this fast, but I guess I was inspired, LOL. The three emblems are Bungie Day 2021, The Brightest Stars, and Spicy... Continue Reading →
Crafting Up Your Neighborhood: The Library
One of the most frequent comments I get is something along the lines of "I would love to try to cross-stitch in public, but I'm scared that I'll ruin my project." This is totally understandable! I know that not everyone is willing to stand on the overlook of a waterfall just to get a pic... Continue Reading →
