Stranger Upside Down, Cross Stitch Pattern PDF Download

MEASUREMENTS AND STITCHING ON 14 COUNT AIDA
105 stitches width x 143 stitches height
Finished stitch area is 7.5" wide x 10.2" high or 19cm x 26cm, roughly A4 with a small border.

27 DMC skeins are used and a suggested colour chart is included.
Please feel free to make substitutions using floss you already have or colour ways you prefer.

For best results use a light coloured 14 count aida and use 2 strands of floss, or 3 if you favour fuller coverage. Make sure to leave a 3 inch border around the stitch area for mounting.

Pattern mainly uses full stitches, however to add detail and make colours pop some back stitching and 3/4 stitches are required. Therefore this may not be suitable for a beginner.

Every element, from pattern design to print has been designed and hand stitched by myself, Helen Bretherton of Sew Needlejuice.

I began cross stitching 10 years ago as a mess free hobby to do around my children but soon found its therapeutic qualities hugely beneficial to mental wellbeing. Now I cant stop!

Having always been a huge fan of cross stitch samplers but uninspired by endless floral and twee patterns I decided to combine the traditional craft with my love of pop culture to create these totally unique, modern and vibrant designs. My degree in Visual Art and Culture lent itself perfectly to this.

This is my own one woman business which I run whilst raising 3 children and working part time in a museum. With constant inspiration from music, tv and film I will continue to cloth stab my way through popular culture.

Returns: Due to the nature of digital downloads and custom prints, we cannot accept returns or cancellations. However, if you have a problem with your order, please get in touch. I’m always happy to help!
