Cross Stitch Pattern | Sterling | Animal Crossing

by ObvItsAmyLeave a Comment on Cross Stitch Pattern | Sterling | Animal Crossing

Time for my best boy Sterling!

I wanted to make this pattern mainly for myself as he is my favourite eagle character (yes, I know you all love Apollo).
Sterling is still living happily on my 3DS New Leaf save and was there from day 1, hence why I fell in love with him. He has also been living on my New Horizons town since around May. He lives next door to my third fav (both after Apple <3) Cesar.

Here is a preview of the pattern:

He was probably one of my favourites to create because he is one of the only villagers who wears a hat by default – honestly, if you have him in your town give him a hat and he stacks them, it’s SO cute!

You can download the pattern here!

Let me know if you have any requests for villagers 🙂

Cross Stitch Pattern | Stitches | Animal Crossing

by ObvItsAmyLeave a Comment on Cross Stitch Pattern | Stitches | Animal Crossing

Hello everyone!

I recently had a new villager come to my island, the adorable Stitches, so I though I would do a small tribute to the ickle thing by creating this adorable small Stitches pattern! Do you have Stitches on your island too? I have gone through another phase of redesigning my island again too…because I will never be 100% happy with it!

Here is the preview:

So who is planning on stitching this little cutie tootie? I might actually get to work on others during my break so please send your requests here! 🙂

Download the pattern here!

If I don’t post again before then, happy holidays all!

Hello everyone!

3 days on the trot for patterns now – it’s a really rough time so I thought I’d share my fan made patterns with you as I love combining my video game and stitching hobby.

I put together Orville & Wilbur, two new NPCs from Animal Crossing and have risen to the top of my favourite Animal Crossing characters!

So here is the preview:

Cross Stitch Pattern | Villager, Apple | Animal Crossing

by ObvItsAmy2 Comments on Cross Stitch Pattern | Villager, Apple | Animal Crossing

Today I am experimenting with my WinStitch tool (especially in the current climent of lockdown and isolation).

I have started to see if I could make small head shot patterns of my favorite villagers in Animal Crossing.

Starting with my #1 gal, Apple! I tried to simply the colours slightly and I finessed it based off the original picture I had as reference. I ❤ her!

You can download the pattern here if you want to give it a try!

Let me know what you think, would you be interested in picking one up of your favourite villager?

Are there other Animal Crossing / Cross Stitch lovers out there?!

Holly & Hazel – Review

by ObvItsAmyLeave a Comment on Holly & Hazel – Review

 

 

 


Title: Hazel and Holly
Author: Sara C. Snider
Publisher: Double Beast Publishing
Genre: New Adult, Sci Fi & Fantasy
Release Date: May 16 2019
Rating: ★★★

 

 

 

So I have a confession, I actually started reading this quite some time ago but I had so much going on with work I stopped and suddenly picked it back up. I was instantly hooked on the book once again and binged the last 2/3’s quite quickly.

Here is the synopsis pulled from Netgalley:

Nestled within an enchanted forest is the Grove, a community where witches and warlocks practice natural magic, brew mystical potions, and lock their cellars against beer thieving gnomes. Life is quiet and uneventful. Well, except when Hazel’s long-lost father uses necromancy to trap her dead mother’s soul.

That simply won’t do. Necromancy is forbidden in the Grove, and for good reason too. Nobody wants filthy corpses shambling around, mussing up one’s garden. Hazel is determined to find her father and undo his treachery.

But despite Hazel’s plans of becoming a one-woman army, she can’t do everything alone. It’s not until wild sister Holly convinces her to leave the house for once and go to a party that Hazel finds a pair of unlikely allies in two bickering warlock brothers.

Together, the four of them go on a journey that takes them out of the Grove and into a world where necromancy reigns and the dead won’t respectfully stay in the grave. Hazel will do whatever it takes to stop her father and save her mother’s soul. Even if it means turning to necromancy. Even if it means losing her friends. Because they would never help a necromancer. Would they?

Pattern – Sickening

Pattern – Sickening

Hello!

Just a little short blog post from me as I realised I haven’t shared a pattern with you all in a long time and recently I’ve been getting commissioned to make a few designs – all my patterns on here are free however. You can click on the tags section and find one marked as ‘free patterns’.

And as Rupaul’s Drag Race All Stars has started again I thought I would share one from one of the fabulous contestants, Latrice Royale! So far most of my patterns have been quotes, but once I have a bit more spare time on my hands I’d like to begin making more creative pieces. For now enjoy!

I would say this pattern would be great for someone who has done a simple pattern in the past – so a beginner.

You can download this free sickening pattern here.

I’d love to see people’s take on this pattern – feel free to tag me on Instagram/Twitter or use the hashtag #ObvItsAmyStitches!

Pattern – Girl Look How F**king Orange You Look

by ObvItsAmy1 Comment on Pattern – Girl Look How F**king Orange You Look

We all loved season 5 of Rupaul’s Drag Race didn’t we? It brought to light some of the best one liners, and this one in particular is in my top 10 quotes of all time.

As I have quite a backlog of patterns I thought I’d share another free downloadable one for you today, and you might have guessed that it came from season 5 pageant bae Alyssa Edwards.

You know that moment between her and Coco? One of the best moments in RuPaul Herstory. Well I thought I’d make a quote pattern from it and add a cute little flower to the bottom of the screen, do you have a friend who loves bronzer or wears a little bit too much fake tan, well this is the pattern for you!

I’d love to see people’s take on this pattern – feel free to tag me on Instagram/Twitter or use the hashtag #ObvItsAmyStitches!
