I Subvert Traditional Cross-Stitching To Create Hilarious And Colorful Works Of Art

ADVERTISEMENT

My work falls in the realm of ‘next-level’ snarky, subversive cross-stitching. Going beyond the increasingly popular craft of stitching small and simple expletives onto aida or linen fabrics, I add a little snark while subverting more traditional styles of detailed cross-stitching with my attention to color, design and layout, intricacy, embrace of classic folk-art themes, and weird sense of humour.

Here are a few examples of my work. Hope they make your day.

I love these. Cross stitching is one of my favourite crafts and I'm glad to see the recent expansion in variety of patterns, away from the ubiquitous praying hands and lord's prayer
