What kinds of portraits can I get done?
When it comes to stitch people portraits, the question I often hear is, "What kinds of portraits can I get done?" The real answer? Whatever you’d like! I aim to create truly personalized handmade artwork that reflects each unique story, capturing your most cherished moments in the classic, comforting medium of cross-stitch.
I may not be the first to offer cross-stitch family portraits, but I believe my style has a warmth and personality that’s unique & desireable. With attention to detail and a love for every project I take on, I hope each stitch speaks to you just as much as it does to me!
What Occasions Are Perfect for a Cross-Stitch Portrait?
Whether you’re marking a milestone, celebrating a big day, or looking for a truly one-of-a-kind gift idea, a custom cross-stitch portrait can be tailored to fit any occasion. Here are some popular ideas:
- Weddings: Capture the happy couple in cross-stitch on their wedding day, with outfits and details that match the big event.
