My Experience in stitching The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh

Cross-stitching *The Starry Night* by Vincent van Gogh was such a fun and calming experience!

When I opened the kit and saw all the vibrant blues, yellows, and swirling patterns, I was excited but a little nervous. But once I threaded the needle and got started, it became really relaxing. There’s something so satisfying about making those tiny 'x' stitches and watching the picture slowly come to life.

Some parts were definitely tricky, especially with all the color changes to capture van Gogh’s swirling sky. I had to pay close attention to get the stars and hills just right. It was a bit challenging, but that made it even more rewarding when I finished each section. It felt like I was painting with thread, and seeing the iconic sky take shape was amazing.

The best part was putting in the final stitch and stepping back to see the whole design finished. I was so proud of how it turned out! Framing it and hanging it up made me feel like I brought a piece of van Gogh’s art into my home. It wasn’t just about having a new decoration; it was about all the time and effort I put into making something so beautiful.
