Welcome to Issue 12 of XStitch Magazine: Noir! This issue is a tale of murder and mystery featuring fifteen designs that are inspired by the Noir genre.
We like to keep things eclectic, so we have a great mix of styles including some nostalgic notes from Floss & Mischief and Kate Blandford. But as you can tell, our old school flavours are still spicier than the average!
We welcome PXLCRS to the XStitch family – he’s a pixel artist with a penchant for making magnificent motor vehicles, and for our Noir issue he’s created a classic Corvette! And with this theme, some of your favourite designers really unleashed their dark sides – you’ll love it!
PXLCars – Corvette Tom Katsumi – Mystery Wall Tiny Modernist – Moth Marina Bolmini – Black Dahlia
We’ve got an amazing artist profile of Rita Sada and, in what might be a first for a cross stitch magazine, we’ve got a ten page crime comic! There are so many good things in this issue, and we’d love to show them here, but I’m afraid you’ll just have to buy the issue and unravel the mystery yourself!
Leah Emery – What The Fan Saw PyroDogPins – Hard Boiled Maria Diaz – Femme Fatale Fiddlesticks AU – The End
