Hello everyone,

It's been a long time since I've committed to a project, and I think I'm going to get back into it. I came across the term 'subversive' cross stitch on google, but I couldn't tell if this is something new or not. Can someone explain the difference if there is one?

Thank you!

Instead of a inspirational word or phrase that is stitched. Subversive is a negative comment that is stitched.

Duh. Guess that should have dawned on me, given the website I found.

Thank you!

I'm not sure, given the time and effort involved if I'd ever consider stitching something "negative".

If I wanted to express anger or negativity I'd find paint and canvas a better alternative.

Just my .02
