Raven's Roost

Here is a new design from the St Charles market that is on my wish list. It's called Raven's Roost and it's by the Goode Huswife.

Sarah Hook

This is an excellent example of a tombie cross stitch.  An old epitaph.  This is Sarah Hook by Carriage House Samplings.

Why another cross stitch blog?

This is a new blog for all the wonderful dark, gloomy, slightly macabre cross stitch designs that are out there.

I have looked and searched, but I couldn't find a blog or group that featured these designs. I have heard those who love these designs called 'tombies' so I decided to start a blog called Tombies and Gloomies.


I am hoping to feature a different design a couple of times a week.
