Lady Gaga Goes Crafty

You are probably wondering why I am blogging about Lady Gaga, Well it’s a short story really. I went to her concert (Brisbane 16th June) and apart from the appreciation for her creativity and imagination I was delighted to see her accepting gifts from her fans but not just any gifts HANDMADE gifts.

A large Paper mache Monster Paw that lights up was paraded for all to see as Lady Gaga joked it was way “over the top” for her show.

And a Jacket glammed up Gaga Style (can’t make out words) which she continued to wear for the rest of the Biker Set. It’s great to see the creativity coming out of her fans. Just watching everyone walking in was a show in itself. There were people in meat dresses, leotards and some costumes I can not write about or put into words. It truly was a creative spectacular to be a Prop or costume maker on that show must be like working in Heaven.

Unique Stitch Crafts is a Turkish designer that has a couple of main interests in their cross stitch designs: travel and Christmas stockings.

By far the biggest category in their storefront is Christmas stockings, with more than 100 options to choose from. There are fully stitched fronts with designs classic and whimsical (like an alicorn and a pastel rainbow, or a bunny in Harlequin costume playing violin to a mushroom) and designs that just go across the cuff of the stocking. There are ornaments with a Nutcracker or Frozen theme, New York City stockings and stockings for your dinosaur.

As an example, here’s a stocking covered with mini holiday designs, which you could also use as ornaments if you wanted. The full design is 165 by 255 stitches, which comes out to 10.3 by 16 inches, or 26 by 40.6 cm on 16 count fabric. The pattern just makes the front of the stocking so you need to grab some fabric for the back of the stocking and sew it together yourself.

There’s also a large collection of travel cross stitch patterns, including national parks designs both large and mini, and travel poster style designs for many US states and cities. (There’s not an Arkansas, which is my standard test since I live there, but there is a pattern of the Mississippi River bridge in Memphis, which is technically half in Arkansas.)

If you’re more of a world traveler you’ll find more of the travel poster style designs for cities and countries, including Thailand and China, Berlin, Sydney and Marrakech.

In addition to all of that, you’ll find patterns called retro, which includes a wide range of designs, but many seem to be food and coffee related; folk art designs (lots of flowers and birds); and famous paintings translated to cross stitch. Smaller categories include Christmas, Halloween, animals, kids and castles.
