Weekly Workload: February 4 2019

Three pieces on this week's roster. One which will probably be finished today, if all goes well.

Support Artisans

Patch commission. I need to fix the bird because I hate it, but there really isn't much left on this one. I also need to work out some back stitching for the bird and maybe the orange bits. But Mr Bird there definitely blends into the background in a way I really don't like.

Yeen

Conbadge, example and guerrilla marketing. After the Haida badge, I really fell in love with doing them this way. This one is on dyed blue fabric, though I haven't been as quick on it as I'd have liked. Paying commissions take priority, and other stuff around the house got in the way as well. Ideally, I think I can still manage to clear this entire list by the end of the week.

Frostline

Conbadge, trade. Another badge, because they're a quick way to get my work and examples out there. I think I used the wrong brush while drawing the sprite, because some things seem wonky for reasons I can't figure out, but not wonky enough that I felt like it was worth redoing.

Don't forget, you get more WIP shots throughout the week by supporting me on Patreon.

2019 MadXStitchalong

The 2019 MadXStitchalong is scheduled to take two months this year. Why? Because it's a bit bigger than the ones in the past, for one, and a two-month schedule should hopefully make it easier for everyone to keep up. It's also a drawn design this year, meaning that although the design is bigger, it's going to be much simpler to stitch and count, with a lower threshold for detail.

The 2019 SAL will run from September 1st through Halloween. Also changing this year is the way you will be receiving your patterns. Rather than having to remember to keep checking back at a certain page, there is a form below for you to sign up. Every week, starting Sunday, September 1st, you will receive all your files over email. The SAL will be structured at one page per week, except for the final week, which will be two pages.

Like every year, the design is a mystery. But you do get to know some specifics.

Commission Info, Originals for Sale, and Pattern Downloads

I take commissions for a variety of styles and options, through Commiss.io. Commissions are either a set size and price, or incrementally increasing in size and price. A variety of add-on options are also offered.

Originals can also be purchased through Commiss.io. Pretty much everything that isn't a commission winds up available for sale. Prices start at $5 for small patches, and go up from there. Typically, originals are priced at 50% of what the commissioned price would be.
After some cross stitch patterns? They are also on Commiss.io. All patterns are $6, regardless of size.
