URBAN CROSS STITCH

Never thought I'd get to cross stitch again as a grownup but when I saw the Urban Cross Stitch kits, I just couldn't help not getting one!

During a visit to Arkansas, USA, Phil Davison, a London based pattern-cutter, was introduced to cross stitching by an elderly family friend. Wishing to combine his newfound interest with his love of street art, he decided to create his very own cross stitch brand.

Urban Cross Stitch are dedicated to 'urban-craft', updating cross stitch from twee pastime to modern graphic medium.

Here are some of my favourite kits...
   

All kits include everything needed to start cross stitching as well as detailed instructions so don't worry if you're a beginner.

I got the one with "The Usual Suspects" for about £13 and hey, maybe I'll post a picture of it for you when I finish it! Grandma would be soooo proud of me hehe!
