A Sprinkle of Stitches

I'm notoriously bad for not having a protective cover on my phone. My biggest excuse is that I've just never found one that I liked enough to cough up the cash for. Until I came across these awesome cross stitch phone covers. I found mine on Amazon for a mere $8 and am extremely pleased.

And not only did it come with the eco-friendly silicone case, but it included some embroidery thread, a needle, and a little pattern booklet.

But like a total craft nerd I had to find myself a unique pattern to stitch up on my phone case. So I did a little online search for vintage cross stitch patterns, and fell in love with the Art Nouveau patterns on the Antique Pattern Library (and yes, I stayed up way too late looking through them).
