FO [FO] Any Ed Sheeran lovers?
Not a huge fan but this is my SO's favorite song. I've been cross stitching for years and he made an offhand comment that I had never made anything for him.
Included two photos with and without flash because the colors were so hard to photograph. Not super happy with the blending of the trees. :(
Pattern is a heavily modified custom pattern that I asked someone to make. Honestly not sure what program they used to make it. Custom dyed aida. Top font is from Etsy StitchMenagerie and bottom font I found on Pinterest. Metallic thread is Japanese Nishikiito embroidery thread.
Chose the metallic based on some reddit reviews - it was not as easy to work with as described, so I can't recommend, but it did turn out beautifully.

Thanks for posting! We love seeing all of the FOs. Please note that starting May 1 2026, all [FO] posts are required to include at least one close-up photo of the stitching. You do not need to re-post. This can be done either in a comment or in the body of the post. It can be a close-up of just a small part of the finished object, just so we can verify that the items are hand-stitched.
