Do you know about the CGT Cottage Garden Threads collaboration with XStitch the Rainbow and 20+ designers?

XStitch the Rainbow is a stitching community collaboration designed to support multiple pillars of the cross stitch industry: dyers, designers, shop owners, and stitchers.

20+ designers are creating 60x60 ocean-inspired designs using a palette of four thread colors from Cottage Garden Threads called "Beneath the Waves", with all designs released in March at the Nashville Needlework Market.

One thread color is a brand new market-exclusive color!

Cottage Garden Threads are sold in 10-meter skeins and since each design is 60x60 or smaller, you can stitch multiple patterns with one pack.

This stunning floss kit consists of a limited 4 color palette including Sea Change, Mariana, Citrus, and Sizzler.

The threads and patterns are so bold and fun! Check out our collection below including patterns by Tiny Modernist Cross Stitch ,Fox and Rabbit Designs , Ink Circles, Jan Hicks Creates Petal Pushers, Counting Puddles, and more.

Enjoy!

Let's highlight another fun designer. This time, Counting Puddles with American designer Lindsey Whitney.

According to her website (and we agree) she creates playful, modern cross stitch patterns that hopefully bring you joy, creativity, relaxing downtime, a chance to work with your hands, or … maybe all of the above!

She started designing cross stitch patterns in 2018 as a form of self care and pleasurable downtime while looking after her two little boys.

"I wanted to share fun, modern patterns that bring out a bit of your inner child — patterns that encourage you to slow down and appreciate the importance of little moments."

Check out our newest Counting Puddles collection below and even more of her patterns on our website. -- Enjoy!
