Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Okay, so I've finished my giiiiiiiant cross stitch, so what's next?

I've been pretty lucky this year in that an Australian magazine editor found my Etsy shop, loved my designs and has been commissioning projects from me. For my third project for her, I've designed something especially.



I've only just started stitching, so this is where I'm up to:



But I can't think of a title for the design. They are mostly star blocks so I've considered something star-like, but I can't come up with anything I like. Any suggestions?

Those are incredible! How did you design them? Did you use a software program?

They look like quilt blocks and that is what I am thinking of stitching for fun after I finish the baby sampler for my sister. I looked at my quilting software but I can't seem to make them into cross-stitch patterns.

Great design!

Love them!! Very nice designs and looking like they are going to stitch up very nice!! Only thing I can think of is Kryss's Stars?

Very prety design!!!!!!

What about a name like a Galaxy of Stars or Heavenly Stars?????

They are really great and with the quilt theme inherint in the design all I can think of is something like "Star Quilts" "Cross Stitch Quilt Stars" and so on.

Great idea.

Very corny but - Star Crossed Quilts?

How about "star constellation"?

Beautiful designs. unfortunately I'm not very creative when it comes to names, but something with "star" in it would surely fit. I guess something like "Kryss's firmament" would be to abstract
"Star Crossed Quilts" sounds great

Lovely designs How about Star Cluster

Pinwheel Stars quilt blocks?

They remind me those pinwheels you blow on and they spin around. They also remind me of quile blocks. I really like the designs.

Very nice design, I like it!

Umm how about Celestial Geometry?

Thanks for all your suggestions. The best idea I've come up with so far is Stars Above, but I'm still not 100% on anything yet.

ladymyste, I use software to make my designs, but I'm still mostly doing them by hand. The software is just useful for printing off charts.

Thanks Kryss. I think I'm going to test some software programs. Ive always wanted to crosstitch some of my quilts into small samplers so that may be the way to go. Thanks again

Congratulations having your designs commisioned -- a lovely collection of stars!

I like Star Crossed Quilts

Or perhaps Milky Way or Nebula or something like that?
