This pattern is a record of the high and low, or just high temperatures for each day (if you want something a bit less chaotic… I personally love chaos, but I know not everyone does!) of the year with each power line representing a month (January is at the top) and each bird representing a day, plus a bat for Halloween (you can replace it with a bird). The pattern is charted in DMC 6 strand embroidery floss, with each bird charted in DMC 1 (highs) and 4 (lows), but you will be stitching it in the colors from your temperature table. I hope you enjoy stitching this and when you do, please tag me on Instagram @dr_kristi so I can see your progress. The first picture is the simulated stitched for my region, the second and third pictures are how it is charted in color with the two greys (these are what you will replace with your temperatures), the fourth picture is just the highs stitched, and the fifth picture is how it is charted in symbol. I have included charted numerals 0-9 for you to stitch this pattern in future years as well as a Christmas bauble and a dreidel to replace the snowflakes in December for folks in the southern hemisphere. You can find your high temperatures at many places including weather.com, acuweather.com, and weatherbug.com. You can easily find historical temperatures at https://www.wunderground.com/history/ (this will help you decide your temperature ranges). Unfortunately, I do not provide temperature tables for different regions. If you want a more detailed explanation of how to create your temperature table, please check out my video at: https://youtu.be/0CUOnUxPpeY , and if you would like me to create the table for you I have a listing for that option in my Etsy shop.

Some people do cross-stitch as a hobby, others like gardening, while this game designer from Switzerland is making costumes. While she's just on her third, the video of her in the costume which she shared on Reddit, instantly received over 100k likes and numerous comments. The passionate cosplayer sure received a lot of attention and we think that it's only fair since the costume really does look majestic.

Project: The Princess and the Pea Designer: Marion Scoular Type of needlework: Blackwork and Hardanger Photos: 12 Marion's instructions for this project can be found on the NeedleArtworks website. LEGEND: First, let's read what Marion Scoular has written for us concerning the legend about THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA. Once upon a time there was a Prince who longed to marry a real Princess. He searched all over the world to find her. There seemed to be plenty of Princesses but for one reason or another, the Prince could never be sure that they were, in truth, what he sought. Disconsolate, he returned to his castle. Slowly he grew paler and thinner, pining for a real Princess. One evening there was a terrible storm. The wind blew, lightning slashed the sky, thunder crashed and rain lashed the countryside. Suddenly a knock was heard at the castle gate. The guards hurried to the gate, holding their lanterns high above their heads. There at the gate stood a Princess. Rain had soaked her hair and streamed in rivers from her gown to her toes. But she was a Princess ... a real Princess ... she told the guards, and had become lost in the storm. "A real Princess?" asked the Prince, in disbelief. "We must make sure," said his mother the Queen. She prepared a bed for the Princess, made with ten mattresses filled with the softest eiderdown. Beneath the first mattress on the boards of the bed, the Queen placed one small dried pea. The Princess, unaware of this, climbed up to sleep on top of the feather mattresses. In the morning, everyone in the court gathered to hear the Queen ask her how she slept. "I hardly slept a wink," moaned the Princess. "I am bruised all over. My bones ache as if they were broken. There must have been some frightful object in my bed". "She is indeed a real Princess," proclaimed the Queen. "No one but a real Princess could have such tender skin!" The delight of the Prince knew no bounds. The King and Queen were well pleased. The Prince married her the very next day because now he knew she was a real Princess. And the pea can be seen on a pedestal in the Royal museum to this very day. (end of story) Comments: This is really a project that I enjoyed stitching from start to finish. The design is beautiful and I guess it brought back the child in me with this lovely legend. The brochure is very well written and it was not difficult to follow Marion's instructions. I was blogging pieces at the time which would explain why I have so many photos to show you today. (Photo showing the bed with the first 2 mattresses and if you look under the first mattress you will see the little round pea, which has not yet been stitched ) (3 mattresses now) (4 mattresses) (Going up to 5 mattresses) (6 mattresses) (7 mattresses) (8 mattresses, getting pretty high) (9 mattresses) (10 mattresses - this is as high as this goes - would not want to fall from that height myself) (This photo shows the blanket, hardanger canopy, canopy drapes, tassel and the Princess herself) (Fun frame for this project - Don't forget to look at the little pea under the first mattress - you may also have a look at the very first photo way way up this post so that you can have a good view of the little pea)

Here is my next batch of stitched up mini cross stitches. They are all done on the same hand dyed antique white 28 count lugana fabric, with the exception of the last picture. That one is stitched on plain old Antique white lugana. I saw this design here over at the blog Little Lovelies, but it comes from the book A Rainbow of Stitches which they carry at my lovely local library. The original was done in two colors but I liked it in just the one. This is a free chart from from sub rosa called Keys to the Past. It's the companion freebie to Locks and Keys that I wrote about here. I found the chart for this pretty little lady here via pinterest. The Chart was created by Corinne Leroy Creations. I changed the colors to fit the basic muted brown color palate of all the mini cross stitches I've been stitching lately. Finally, this was supposed to originally be a black dress, but again I changed it to a redish maroon, with dusky pink flowers to fit the color palate of the other small stitches I've stitched so far. The pattern is another freebie from Les douces Heures de Piatine. And that's it so far!
