Yer Arse and Parsley Cross Stitch Pattern
$8.99
Elegant, sophisticated, snarky… what could be better than that. The gorgeous spring-like mint and peach tones in the Yer Arse and Parsley cross stitch pattern belies the meaning of the text, which is a Scottish insult translating roughly to, “You’re talking shit.” The phrase can be used to make your own exclamations of frustration more colourful, or for those more sensitive you could say it’s an inspirational phrase promoting a healthy whole diet … 😂 This Jacobean-era inspired cross stitch pattern also features sparkling Japan Threads in a glorious copper, as well as shiny copper beads. If the text isn’t to your taste for the pattern, you could add in your own text with any of the cross stitch alphabet charts, or you could stitch the pattern without the text, there’s an example photograph showing what it looks like without text. And if you’re not sure what Japan Threads are, you can check out this free video tutorial. 😊
This design is also available as a downloadable cellphone wallpaper, printable gift tags, and printable art. They can be purchased individually or as a set, or the Mega Bundle with all downloadable products and all the Cheeky Wee Lass cross stitch patterns is also available. Just the Cheeky Wee Lass cross stitch patterns are also available as a set.

Pooch Me Hame Cross Stitch Pattern
The vibrant tones and metallic shimmer of the elegant Pooch Me Hame cross stitch pattern hides a little “surprise”… the text. This Jacobean-era inspired pattern is ideal if you love snark but can’t display it at home because of children or parents who might get upset, as it doesn’t resemble English at all. “Pooch me hame” is a Scottish insult, translating to “kiss my a$s.” Of course for entertainment, you could create your own “family-safe” translation, like “I love my family”…. 😂This pattern features Japan Threads as well as beading for a touch of shimmer and shine. If the text isn’t to your taste for the pattern, you could add in your own text with any of the cross stitch alphabet charts, or you could stitch the pattern without the text, there’s an example photograph showing what it looks like without text.

Gypit Hoor Cross Stitch Pattern
The Jacobean-era inspired botanical wreath of the Gypit Hoor cross stitch pattern holds a secret — the true cheekiness of the text. The Doric Scottish insult “Gypit Hoor” actually translates to “crazy whore,” but of course you could create your own translation for those who are more sensitive like children in the home (or your parents, or that one “special” friend who takes offence to everything…). “Great woman” might be a good fake translation if needed …. 😂 Rich golds and vibrant pinks and purples enhance the sparkle of the pretty gold Japan Threads and the delicate gold beading. If the text isn’t to your taste for the pattern, you could add in your own text with any of the cross stitch alphabet charts, or you could stitch the pattern without the text, there’s an example photograph showing what it looks like without text. And if you’re not sure what Japan Threads are, you can check out this free video tutorial. 😊
