After the success of my micro cassette cross stitch keyrings for issue 5 of the Xstitch Mag I didn’t submit anything for issue 6. The reason, was I had an idea for issue 7; a donut.
The issue theme was ‘food’ and I had known about this maybe a year in advance, and went through a whole load of ideas, however it wasn’t until I wrote my post on the weird world of cross stitched food that I realised that pink donuts were a MASSIVELY popular cross stitch item. In fact, I took the ideas of Nickel And Grace Studio’s pink donut and combined it with Namaste embroidery’s double hoop idea to come up with something trully unique.
If you’re looking for a sweet guide on how to do this yourself, Namaste Emroidery have you covered!
