I wanted to combine graphic design and cross stitch and I wanted to make more modern designs.\u00a0 I just started making my own patterns and kits but I am loving it and I think they are getting better and more fun as I get into the swing of it.\u00a0 The Pennywise Clown is a hand drawn illustration, drawn by me, I think he came out really cute and I <span class=\"il\">got<\/span> my inspiration from my sister and her love (and almost obsession) with Stephen King novels.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This <span class=\"aBn\" tabindex=\"0\" data-term=\"goog_598706519\"><span class=\"aQJ\">October 17th-19th\u00a0Nicole<\/span><\/span>\u00a0will have a booth set up at the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fearfete.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fear Fete<\/a> Horror Festival in Biloxi, Mississippi which she&#8217;s\u00a0very excited about.\u00a0 As for her\u00a0store, she has\u00a0lots of cute and unique halloween handmade items and gifts. \u00a0So if you&#8217;re in the area, go check it out, lots of gee gaws for your hee haws.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are LAUNCHED!
