Halloween Cross Stitch Cuteness from Alma Lynne

September 14, 2011 by Connie Barwick

Over the years, I have seen designers come and go. Some retire, some move on to other things, and some, sadly, pass from this life leaving their designs behind for us to remember them by.

One designer that I’d sort of lost track of was Alma Lynne. Someone asked me about her designs recently and I just assumed that she’d retired and I needed to check for her designs on eBay.

But, no! When I received a recent Herrschners catalog, there was an entire feature on Alma Lynne’s designs – both stamped and counted cross stitch. I particularly LOVE the Happy Halloween Motif collection shown here.

If you are a younger stitcher, you may not remember Alma Lynne’s classic designs from back in the day, but you should definitely check them out – and if you are like me, you will be so glad to see that she’s still offering her classic designs. To find more of her designs, just search for Alma Lynne on your favorite online site or ask for her by name at your local needlecraft shop!

D&D Cross Stitch Patterns

My husband is a D&D player from way back and still does role playing with his friends most weekends. There are lots of great D&D cross stitch patterns, but somehow the ones that caught my eye this time have a theme of being about the D&D classes or involving dice (or both). 

I love this collection of the D&D classes done as tarot cards. These would be so fun to stitch up for all the people in your party, or make the full set as one big wall hanging for the game room. There are 16 patterns total (just a few are shown here) and each one just uses three colors. The designs are from GlitchStitchAU.

This set kind of reminds me of astrological signs, though I can’t really say why. This set of 16 designs from White Raven Patterns is color coordinated so it sort of makes a rainbow if you stitch all of them. The dungeon master one is more colorful. Each one uses five or six colors and fits in a 10-inch hoop. 

Combining character classes and dice we get this set of 14 designs from Stitch it Picasso. Each one includes the class name and a die with a number on it, as well as some images that make sense for that class (the bard has a lute and music notes, for example). Each design is around 90 by 90 stitches and they use 13 to 19 colors each, depending on the design. 

Or you can make patches that look like dice with this D20 dice bundle from Non Player Creation. The patches are inspired by the four seasons, but you could change up the colors to suit your campaign setting if you like. They are 31 by 35 stitches and use between nine and 12 colors depending on the season. 

And speaking of D20s, this little dragon might be protecting your dice or cursing them, it’s hard to tell. It’s kind of cute, though! The design is from Cross Stitch Wow and measures 80 by 95 stitches. It fits in an 8-inch hoop and uses 16 colors.
