About

Hi, we're Resting Stitch Face.

Resting Stitch Face started with a simple idea: cross stitch doesn't have to be all doilies and “Home Sweet Home”.

We design modern PDF patterns from Sydney, Australia: photo-realistic food you'll want to eat, optical illusions that mess with your eyes, cheeky slogans for the bathroom wall, and enough 90s nostalgia to make you want a gel pen.

Every pattern is charted with both colour and symbols, tested for readability, and sized for real hoops. Most are beginner friendly; the big ones are “not difficult, just detailed”.

Stitch with us

We're always looking for stitchers to bring new patterns to life. You get a pattern, we get some finished photos to share. Interested? Say hi.

You can also find us (and 52 lovely reviews) on Etsy.
