This Cross-stitch is so cute, it almost inspires me to take up a needle. (via)

It’s one thing to see a pattern, and it’s another thing entirely to see what a real person has done with it. The crafty lady who did this one also tried this. (via)

The patterns are both from the lovely book, Japon au Point de Croix which is in French, but that’s okay, right? I’m sold no matter what language it’s in!

Of course, I haven’t done cross-stitching since the days when I was a fan of Latch Hook rug kits. (Who doesn’t love Garfield in Latch Hook?) Maybe it’s time to try again, now that I have better taste.
