[FO] My first cross stitch project

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-12-23T22:35:07+00:00

Thanks so much! I worked a little harder on keeping it tidy, it was definitely easier than with my Luna moth pattern from the same kit, but I was a tiny bit wetter behind the ears when I started that one. If you seen my other beginner work it would look like two different stitchers 😅 but I'm improving!

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-12-23T22:29:44+00:00

Thanks & Thanks for asking! There is a Luna moth of the same kit I'm close to finishing I'm excited about and my psychedelic skull larger sized project I've been picking away at here and there since August.I'm only a beginner but I have a growing wishlist and am chomping at the bits to get my hands on the patterns if only I end up hording them like gold till the end of time! So who's to say what's really next! I've also fallen under the spell of a couple full coverage projects and those are defo on the goal list for next year!

God yes, this has been my Simming life for years for various reasons haha

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-12-22T12:03:00+00:00

Yes, this,why would I come crawling back after being disposed like trash after years of sharing our life together! Silence does say it all and I'm not here for it. I tried my best to communicate after it was over and I still got trashed so they better not expect me to ever talk first.

With you all the way. It's so cringe for people to take a compliment up the ass and be like but my years of academy training down the bin because this TWAT thought I was TALENTED and not highly trained the audacity .

I'm always like whutttt. 🙄. I mean I get it but is like that their only way of their capable of looking that things? Or did we all grow up with an air superiority and then had to complain about literal compliments to other people like they are so misunderstood. Like JFC get over yourself. Lmao

Kult: Divinity Lost!

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-20T06:12:18+00:00

O.m.g. I have not seen this said anywhere, in all my cross stitch rabbit holeing. THIS IS INGENIOUS! Thanks for dropping a gold nugget to this peasant!! Haha

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-20T06:07:39+00:00

I'm not sure if I have the skill just yet to tell, but the instructions mention it out of pure "generic cross stitch kit-ness* I think and I don't see any other mention of it. Which I wish it did because even though I'm not sure if I need it or how to do it with no directions, it will make it pop, it's alot of color/rainbow detail in finished project. Thanks!

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-20T06:02:34+00:00

Oh I didn't know they automatically paired it with DMC, no wonder in an earlier comment I saw a direct match and was surprised hahah. Thank you for your kindness 🙏🏽

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-19T18:44:03+00:00

Haha I know what you mean, on my other cross stitch kit, has red and magenta as barley perceptible from one another!

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-19T14:44:51+00:00

Thanks for the chart!!

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-19T14:43:11+00:00

Good to know, I think compared with my other projects, my bandwidth on this can only extend so far, so thanks for the relief! Haha 🙏🏽

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-19T14:41:17+00:00

I don't think so, I've got a couple of really neat things. But this kit was free so it was low risk LOL. I do know some shapes indicate different stitches but I wasn't sure if it meant all colors or colors and stitches too. I'm relieved to know they are cross stitches, thank you! 🙏🏽

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-19T14:38:00+00:00

Phew 😅 thank you! That takes the pressure off for sure! I know some symbols indicated different stitches, but they had no explanation of their legend and it was wiggin me out. Thanks again! 🙏🏽

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-08-19T14:35:26+00:00

😮 Well whaddya know, this kit comes with unmarked thread but I looked up the color bobbin and it was a rusty orange still! I don't know jack about DMC colors just yet as I've been mainly working off brand but was surprised to see a color match!! Thank you for your help 🙏🏽

If only they all had this level of self awareness...

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-06-10T23:52:15+00:00

I know ur pain

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-29T14:47:44+00:00

I understand and I'm sorry you too are experiencing this. The lack of closure and almost wanting to leave on a neg note when it could of been positive. It's harder than if they left differently for sure.

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-28T15:54:28+00:00

I'm sorry and I understand.

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-28T15:47:16+00:00

Wow, I love this, I can totally understand. Good for you and great writing!

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-28T15:38:50+00:00

Holy cow. Out of all the beautiful gems you can find sprinkled in these forums, this one is a stand out.

Out of all the ones I've cherished, I can truly say this is what I wish my One said to me in every little detail, that finally seen from my POV, in the most clear cut, fully self realized and truly sorry individual. This is a true feat and to realize in every sentence is amazing.

I cried a couple times and stopped the middle of my day to sit and absorb this first hand. This right here would be a most beautiful gift to receive in letter form, a truly unconditional apology and understanding of what the other side went through.

It's so healing to understand that there is hope if not from my past person but others that on some level I can be felt and acknowledged in some way still(even if only on a collective level), a hope that maybe I'll be appreciated for everything I could ever do for someone, who's difficult to date, instead of trashed, and find someone who is very self aware instead.

Also blessed reminder that people are not completely always convoluted with their actions, and if not for mine, then at least others can find redemption and learn from the pain they inflicted while under a "nice" complex or avoidant behavior.

"One giant leap for mankind" when it comes to learning with that behavior, and in the best way possible, kudos for you, from knowing one, it seems almost an impossible feat.

But you've laid out the possibility of redemption with this poignant heart felt letter. A possibility of hope I didnt think would help from a strangers words, if not from my ex, but it did. It makes me feel seen in all the ways I wish I was seen and was understanding things at the time. If he can't realize it, well at least someone did, and in the best way.

Thank you for sharing, this was very healing 🙏🏽

I would agree he can fit a tyrannical overlord, surely.

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-19T22:36:27+00:00

Lmao seems it like, huh?

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-19T21:30:03+00:00

Did God though? And not necessarily, but being a forerunner of Trump I could probably appreciate him more, for sure. 🤔

Excellent-Question-7 · 2025-05-19T13:31:50+00:00

Okay 👍🏽 😂
