Last week, I was contacted by the Duxbury Rural and Historical Society in Duxbury, Massachusetts about using my Star Wars Alphabet Sampler for an informational panel. The exhibition is at a historic house museum called the Bradford House. I was pretty excited to be included because I love history museums. I actually live about 5 minutes … Continued

Black Panther : Wakanda Forever!
WAKANDA FOREVER! I had the pleasure of seeing this masterpiece last weekend, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it! As mentioned before, I’m a total Marvel girl, and I was super excited to see Wakanda come to life! I was unable to get a babysitter for opening night, but both my mother … Continued
MASS EFFECT
I am feeling VERY accomplished! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I have FINALLY finished my Mass Effect cross stitch pattern! I have been working on this since 2015 when I opened my etsy shop! I have always been a gamer girl, and my favorite game series of all time has to be Mass Effect! (Followed closely … Continued
Custom Requests And Some New Finished Pieces!
I absolutely love getting custom requests! My favorite customer always like to keep my on my toes by designing new and fun characters every few weeks. Last week, I got a new request for a Star Wars inspired custom cross stitch. I usually only design custom patterns because of my busy work schedule and two … Continued

“The choices we make. The actions we take. Moments both big and small shape us into FORCES OF DESTINY.” Last year, I was walking around Target when I saw this gigantic new display of Star Wars dolls from a new line called “Forces of Destiny.” I wanted to buy every single doll since I’m a … Continued

It took me almost a month…. but here she is, my new FAVORITE pattern: Stranger Things 2! I usually can’t watch horror movies, but I really love this show and all of the characters. Sure, it is basically the X-men Dark Phoenix Saga, but hey, it is ok, that is probably what makes me love … Continued
Game of Thrones MASTERPIECE!
I’ve read all the books … I’ve seen all the episodes … I stopped visiting spoiler-y sites…. I’m ready for WINTER! (In Westeros anyway…. not so much the season, ha!) Game of Thrones is a BIG deal in my house. My baby shower was Halloween themed, and I dressed up as Daenerys and had three … Continued
Stranger Things!
It’s officially FALL in Indiana, which means hay rides, pumpkin spice lattes, PURDUE FOOTBALL, and the Netflix fan favorite, Stranger Things! Ironically, Stranger Things has a lot of X-men Dark Phoenix Saga allusions (believe me, I know!) and that made me fall in love with the show even more! I am not good with watching … Continued
Guardians of The Galaxy Pattern
In my 2.5 years working in a comic book shop back in the early 2000’s, I never sold a single Guardians of the Galaxy comic book. I couldn’t even tell you who any of those characters even were prior to 2014. (I’m a bona fide Marvel girl and everything!) I was pretty blown away back … Continued
“I am Moana of Motunui!”
It has been a crazy few months in the land of knottybytes. The winter months have faded, and now spring is here! (HOORAY!!) I’ve only added a few new patterns to the shop lately. It is time to meet MOANA! It is no lie that my daughter is obsessed with this movie, (and I am … Continued
