2025 NASHVILLE RELEASES: DUNVEGAN FAIRY FLAG

Let me take you on a little journey to Scotland, where legends are as old as the hills and magic is woven into the fabric of history. According to the tale, the Fairy Flag of Dunvegan is a mystical piece of cloth that holds the power to summon fairies when it’s needed most. It still belongs to the MacLeod Clan and is on display at Dunvegan Castle. Who knows? Maybe one day, you’ll need it too… which is why I designed this pattern with the idea that you can replace the flag with a real piece of fabric – just in case those fairies decide to pay you a visit! 

This design came to life from a hand-painted sketch, created out of my deep love for folklore, Scotland, and, of course, embroidery. It’s not just a pattern; it’s a piece of my heart and my passion for the stories that shape us. In fact, this project began as a creative outlet for me: a way to escape, relax, and find peace through the art of stitching during some of the more difficult times. 

So, whether you’re drawn to the magic of the fairy world or simply love the craft of cross stitch, The Fairy Flag is here to bring a little extra magic into your life. 

This pattern has been stitched by Elisabetta on my new McLEOD FAIRY FLAG fabric, available in 30 ct and 40 ct. We used 30 count.

AN ALTERNATIVE CHRISTMAS: HOOd and WOLF

I love the tale of red Riding Hood... an evening I was talking with Elisabetta B. and I had a glimpse of this pattern... I immediately took paper and pencil and sketch it... It's my favorite one... it's not Christmas related but more winter related... Stitched by Elisabetta B. on Old salem linen 30 ct.

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Hello stitchers :) After almost 2 years it's time to stitch another Fairytale... this year I decided to design BEAUTY AND THE BEAST... which is probably one of the most touching fairytales I've ever red... and so... remembering its lesson, “She warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within", let me show you my pattern... I hope you'll find it beautiful :)

NEW PATTERN: RED RIDING HOOD

Hello my friends. Today is the day: I'm happy to show you my new series: FAIRY TALES' COLLECTION. I love so much this world and all the enchanted meanings contained in fairy tales. So... this is the first pattern: RED RIDING HOOD.

I designed the little girl, the wolf, the deep wood... all archetypical symbols that speak to our minds and souls. I love so much this design, and I'm really grateful to my dear Elisabetta, that stitched it so quickly: she did a so perfect work. Thanks my friend! I'll be lost without you and your patience....

I'm designing a lot of fairy tales at the moment and during this year I'll present you some important project: Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Rapunzel, Snowhite and a lot of other wonderful tales. They inspire me so much..... Obviously I'll design also other things, but this new series will be very ... rich :)

Thanks for your attention, I hope you'll love this little red riding hood... God bless :)
