Inside the mind of Mr X Stitch
Our manbroiderer takes a quick break from stitching to explore some needlecraft artists online
Hellodearreaders, Ihope you’ re keeping well. I don’ t know how much social media you are into these days. My favourite platform (otherthanwww.mrxstitch.com, of course) is Instagram, where there’s a constant stream of inspiration, stitched and otherwise, to feast upon. So here are some of the Ins tag ram people that I enjoy, whose focus is needlework. It goes without saying that you should be following my account (instagram.com/mrxstitch), as I do my best to showcase the groovy needle work that I can find online, and if you’ ve any recommendations for people I should checkout, I’d love to that thanks to the use of hash tags like #x stitcher so fins tag ram and #embroidery inst a guild, it’s easy to see what people are up to.
Here are some of my fav es: Lord Li bid an (@ lord li bid an) isoneof my favourite man broi de rers,c oauthor of Star Wars and Star Trek Cross Stitch, and a fine fellow to boot. He not only shares his terrific designs, but features a lot of video-game inspired work when he can.
Zoe Gilbertson (@ zoe gilbert son) produces abstract cross stitch designs that are explosions of colour and shape. She’ s really onto something quite different and I love seeing what she produces next.
