Recently, I commissioned a turtle bracelet from a very talented crafter in the US called Bitchcrafts by April. She creates off-kilter cross stitch and other delightfully inappropriate thread-based items.

I am absolutely thrilled to bits with my turtle bracelet!

It’s adjustable with enough room to wear it as an anklet if you choose. The bracelet itself is a lot heavier than I expected – the threads are tightly woven in to the lovely turtle pattern. I also commissioned her for a custom cross stitch for Turkey’s Zizi (gender neutral term for sibling of the parent).

While her Etsy page is closed, she is still active on Instagram and accepting commissions.

I urge you to check out her Instagram and giggle at the delightful art that she has created.
