Stitch Fine Art with this Fun Kit

November 12, 2019 by Sarah White

Cross Stitch Creations: Fine Art shows you how to recreate classic artwork from the masters in cross stitch.

Take your needle art to the next level and recreate some of the finest masterpieces in history.

From van Gogh to Klimt to Munch, the projects and artists found in Cross Stitch Creations: Fine Art represent a wide range of art movements in the painting world.

Cross Stitch Creations: Fine Art includes a 64-page instruction book that details how to create works originally painted by van Gogh, Klimt, Matisse, Hokusai, and many others:

  • Composition with Large Red Plane, Yellow, Black, Gray, and Blue by Piet Mondrian
  • The Swan (No. 16) by Hilma af Klint
  • Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci
  • Color Study, Squares with Concentric Circles by Wassily Kandinsky
  • Curtain, Jug, and Fruit by Paul Cézanne
  • Sunflowers (Fourth Version) by Vincent van Gogh
  • Flowers in a Rococo Vase by Paul Cézanne
  • The Scream of Nature by Edvard Munch
  • The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh
  • The Creation of Adam by Michelangelo
  • The Tree of Life by Gustav Klimt
  • The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Katsushika Hokusai

The kit also includes some materials for making some of the projects, but as you might imagine a lot of colors are involved in some of these projects so there aren’t materials that could be used to make all of them.

Have you seen this book? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

About the book: 64 pages, 12 patterns, $21.99/£12.99, published by Quarto.

Designer Spotlight: Haunted Frames

Cute spooky and fantasy cross stitch patterns is how the designer behind Haunted Frames describes their shop, and I have to agree with them. These designs are cute and Gothic and a little bit spooky all at once. There’s a heavy focus on book themes, which you know I am a fan of, so let’s get into it. 

Stopping first in the books section, there are lots of designs that are literally on book shapes, but if you know my love of both books and cats, you’ll know I had to share the Midnight Book Cart cross stitch pattern. As the name suggests it’s a design with a witchy book cart, complete with a spiderweb, bats flying out of a book and what it describes as a ghost cat (though I would have to make a black cat instead of a white one since I have a black cat, and that fits with the vibe). 

The design is 65 by 97 stitches and is worked in 17 colors. It’s shown on 16 count fabric, which makes it 4.1 by 6.1 inches, or 10.3 by 15.4 cm. 

I also love the winter themed little free library design, which would be perfect to stitch up for the little librarian in your life (or to drop at a neighborhood book space). 

Projects with a book theme make up the majority of the patterns that are categorized in this shop, but you’ll want to scroll through all their patterns to see what else is available, since it doesn’t look like everything is in a category. You’ll find castles and dragons, more cats of course, some more obviously Halloween and Christmas themed projects and those that would suit for spooky season or any other time of year. 

If cute and dark is your aesthetic, you’ll want to check out all the patterns at www.etsy.com/shop/HauntedFrames, which you can find on Etsy.
