Introducing Tamara Maynes, cross stitch artist extraordinaire. How lovely would one of these look on my walls? The great difficulty is choosing a favourite.

Erin of Slipcover Your Life has just launched a lovely Etsy shop full of too-cute-to-be cross stitch art. How adorable is the dachshund that spans two frames? These cheeky craftpieces would make a great conversation piece on your wall.

And if you want the satisfaction of making your own, Erin also sells cross stitch kits. Bravo Erin!
