Friday Instagram Finds No. 74 with Heather Everitt

Hello Stitchy Friends! Our readers Down Under are enjoying the end of Spring and beginning of Summer while here in the Midwestern United States where I live, we are moving into fall. We've had chilly weather in the mornings so far, and the temps have stayed pretty moderate otherwise - thank goodness!

Today we're featuring Heather Everitt Embroidery. Heather creates AMAZING pieces of art!! I am blown away by the butterflies she creates. Prepare to be WOW-ed! You can find Heather on Instagram, her website, her blog, and shop.

Wool and silk embroidered poppies with hand beading, a very limited number available this year. These are amongst my favourite designs and I am so proud that my customers wear them as a symbol of remembrance #handmade #stitchersofinstagram #embroidery #handmade #poppies #remembrancesunday #silk

Patterns: Butterfly

Stitched by aimee d

Aimee d has stitched this lovely pattern which is part of a set by Urban Threads called Miniature Menagerie. I love how it feels like an old scientific illustration. There's also a free quilt design to go with the set.

Cross Cross Cross Dot Dot Dot

These dotted butterflies are part of the Power Animal series designed by Amy (aka GirlFlamant). I absolutely love each and every pattern of that series! All animal silhouettes have their own pattern and include a fleur-de-lis owl and an houndstooth patterned Jackalope. I'm about to start stitching a tartan Loch Ness monster! Find all Power animals (and other patterns as well) in her Etsy shop.

If you have not tried Counted Cross Stitch before (I'm very much a newbie myself) do check out the wonderful (and free!) downloadable Cross Stitch guides by Sophie of What Delilah Did. And don't forget to have a look in her shop with many gorgeous kits and patterns as well!
