She Betta Don’t Cross Stitch Pattern
$5.99
If you’ve ever caught yourself slaving away on some completely inane task like sweeping up after the kids for what feels like the fifteenth time that day, and think your life has turned into being the perennial fixer/cleaner/etc of everyone else’s life, stop and take a breath mama. The She Betta Don’t cross stitch pattern is a play on the phrase “oh no she betta don’t” popularized in drag culture, it loosely means “oh no she’d better not [do xyz].” Don’t beat up on yourself for doing what you need to do for yourself and your family, don’t get down or disheartened, and remember that you are a fierce strong woman who rules her world. As the queens would say, “You are sickening mamaaaa,” aka you are the best and you should be proud of yourself. Keep that head held high, and don’t let those daily tasks wear you down. Get out some of those frustrations by stabbing a piece of fabric repeatedly to create the She Betta Don’t cross stitch pattern as a daily reminder to stay fierce.
This pattern is also available in the Get Sampled cross stitch pattern set.

Samplers Since 1675 Cross Stitch Pattern
Cross stitch samplers have been around for hundreds of years, some embroidery samplers have been recovered from Egyptian burial grounds that are dated from the 14th and 15th centuries. Traditionally they were used as a reference of various stitches a young woman would learn, and later became a way to “ensure” she would be able to adorn household items with names (so items came back from a common wash day to the right household), and to add decorative effects to various items of clothing and domestic furnishings. They became a way to “measure a woman’s worth,” which of course in modern times is incomprehensible. Putting a cheeky twist on the beautiful and sometimes “strained” history of samplers (as shown by this viral spoof on a traditional sampler), the Samplers Since 1675 cross stitch pattern is sure to beautifully adorn your home while continuing the very long lineage of creating samplers.
