Nancy Drew Cross Stitch

March 29, 2015 by Albion

Nancy Drew has always been one of my favorites, so when I joined in on an Instagram Storytime Swap and my partner had Nancy in her collage, I knew I was going to run with it. My first thought was to make my own pattern, but I found this one and it was pretty much what I was imagining, so I used it instead.

I used DMC 4140 and love how it came out. The hoop is wrapped in hand-dyed yarn. It takes some time, but I love the overall look.

    Did you use a variegated thread? I always buy it and it never works like I want it to because I use it for such small things. But it works so perfectly for this!

      I did! It took me a little bit to get it to work right. I didn’t realize you needed to complete each stitch to get the right look at first. But I love how this turned out! I’ll be using it more now. 🙂
