Fungi Book - cross stitch pattern / Книга про Гриби - схема вишивки хрестиком

My Book of Fungi! A precious project, a stitching botanical adventure, that we made this summer. It was initially offered as a stitch-along, and I am so grateful to all who joined it and supported me! 

This Book is a part of the Witchy Bookshelf series, that now has the Book of Potions, the Book of Spells and the Book of Shadows. As other books, it has 8 pages, each somehow related to the world of fungi! 

The pattern is available in my etsy shop. Enjoy stitching it!

🚨 Scam alert! 🚨/ Фейкові набори

Dear followers, chinese sellers have stolen the Witches Books designs and are making counterfeit kits, also printing my patterns, including our brand name! The contents of those kits are awful, they include the incorrectly printed pattern, and totally unusable fabrics and threads.

These 'kits' pop up everywhere including AliExpress, Amazon, Ebay as well as all the other random websites. And I am sure some of you have seen those ads in Instagram and Facebook, under the different names, mostly selling the Book of Shadows.

This is having a massive impact on our business and reputation. 

Thanks so much to everyone who's looked out for us, reported listings and left comments letting other shoppers know that they're scams. Thanks to fellow designers for your support and for 'spreading the word' among your followers! It all really helps and it's a positive we can take from this that the stitching community is so supportive and amazing!

You can currently order the my original Witches Bookshelf patterns only in my shop LivingOnTheRainbow (I am working on my personal website, but it takes time), and the genuine embellishment packs for the books, agreed with me, in LadyRevengaCrafts etsy shop.

Please be aware that if you order the pattern and kit from anywhere other than the places mentioned above, you won't receive what is described as they just don't have access to the same knowledge and suppliers. Some items were made to order, specially for the Books. #livingontherainbowpatterns

The 'Fungi Book' stitch-a-long / СП "Книга Грибів"

 🍄🌿 The "Fungi Book" mystery stitch-a-long, a botanical adventure for witchy stitchers, mushroom lovers and book worms 🌿🍄

The Book contains 8 pages. 6 of them feature bizarre, vibrant, mysterious, and often fantastically shaped mushrooms. There will also be 2 pages in a more traditional botanical style, showing mushroom anatomy (those pages will be optional, as they are mostly back stitched). Do not worry, if you prefer not to stitch them, another 2 fungi patterns will be included, so, your Book will feature 8 mushrooms in total.
