Quoth the Raven

 

First finish of spooky season! This is Nevermore Raven by Quaternion Creations from the 2024 Just Cross Stitch Halloween Special Issue (also available in the designer's Etsy shop). I chose a darker fabric than the model because I wanted that beautiful moon to really show up well. I also added a little spark of color to the leaf.


Fabric: 28 ct. Storm, Hand Dyed Fabrics by Stephanie

Moon: GAST Ohio Sky
Raven/Nevermore: GAST Onyx
Branches: GAST Wood Trail
Leaf: CC Colonial Copper

  1. Oh, beautiful! I have this one on my list to do, but I'm going to do the moon in glow-in-the-dark floss. I have a nice swirly charcoal fabric picked out for it! Nice to see it stitched up.

  5. What a beautiful stitch! This is next on my list to stitch as well. I love the fabric you chose- the moon shows up beautifully. The copper leaf is a great pop of color too. Hope you have a relaxing weekend.
