This is the third pattern I bought from Book Pilgrim. I have read Pride & Prejudice at least 4 times and I have seen different versions of the movie hundreds of times! Mr. Darcy is always so hot and attractive!!! I stitched him on 14 count aida using 3 strands. Here is a WIP:
My arm is almost 100% better now, so I was able to work on him pretty quickly! Here he is all finished:
He came out so beautifully! Again, I am so happy with Book Pilgrim's designs! I really should wash and frame Mr. Darcy, Jane Eyre and Heathcliff! They will look spectacular! Here again is the link to Book Pilgrim on Etsy:

Right now I am working on an "Adventure Time" pattern I found on Etsy. I just love that show, and I am having fun doing the cross stitch. I will have a WIP to post soon!

Jane Eyre
Here is another cross stitch pattern I bought from Book Pilgrim. It's Jane Eyre, one of my all-time favorite novels! I stitched her on 14 count Aida using 3 strands of DMC and gold metallic Kreinik thread for the brooch holding her shawl. Here is a WIP:
As with Heathcliff, I chose the colors for this project, but I really didn't like her hair color once I had stitched it, so I undid it and re-stitched it in a different color. I really like the gold Kreinik! Here she is all finished:
I am very happy with the way she came out. I prefer this hair color. I tried to match it as much as possible to Jane Eyre's hair color from the 2011 movie. I still have to wash, iron and then frame her in a 4 inch hoop. If you like her, here is the link to the shop:

Heathcliff
Here is an adorable cross stitch I made designed by a very talented and lovely girl called Sunday! Her shop is called Book Pilgrim on Etsy.com where she sells patterns of cute little pixel people from classic novels! I have bought three patterns from her so far: Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights; Jane Eyre; and Mr. Darcy from Pride & Prejudice! Here is the link to her shop:

I started with Heathcliff. I made him on 18 count Aida, using 2 strands of floss. What is so fun about Book Pilgrim's patterns, is that you can choose the colors you want! Here are some WIPs of Heathcliff:
This is about 3 days' work. Again, I was working very slowly, a little bit at a time, since my arm is not better... But I did finish it:
I think it looks Super Adorable! I am so happy with it! Mind you, I haven't washed or ironed it yet, but once I do, I will frame it with a 4 inch hoop. It will look Spectacular!!!
