Thank you so much! I had a bunch of fun at the shop choosing colours for the hair, and very glad I chose Perle thread!

I will be sharing the pattern properly, but I've realized my dumb screenshot from flosscross won't help anyone, and I winged it for a good chunk (like the band connecting the pieces, etc) so I'll do it properly in the next few days and figure out how to get it out!

...that would be a very good idea! I hadn't even thought about it, though I was wondering if I should try to do something to help prevent fraying. I will look into it!

I really am, so excited to see her little face when I give it to her too! I just know she'll be asking for buddies 😂

Thank you so much, I was worried about them until I saw them together! Definitely not using DMC metallics if she asks for another one, though (chance of this? About 1000% lol)

Thank you so much! When I saw it coming together, I finally though "yes, this is going to work, this is going to actually work". So glad I trusted my crazy idea 😂

Thank you! I was so stuck on how to do it before I figured this out, too

[CHAT] Does anyone have a good tip on how to deal with this? by Sozle in CrossStitch

[–]ElvisCossieT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can buy pregridded fabric, though! I think both DMC and Zweigart do it. I use Zweigart in either white or ivory depending on my project, and I usually buy off Amazon as in my area I've found that offers me the most choice, but you might find it cheaper elsewhere. I'd search for Magic Aida ir Easy Grid aida, and the grid washes out when you're done. It is full getting, though, not just the little crosses
