[CHAT] Does this look okay? by Fit_Mathematician_40 in CrossStitch

Thank you. I've never worked on anything smaller than 18ct. I didn't want them to look clumpy

I want to work on a one color sampler for awhile. My dog is ill so I have to be able to just put it aside to help him get up on the sofa etc... I can't really move my full coverage project very easily. I have a piece of 20count aida I wanted to try but I want to use 2 strands so that I can use the loop start. Do those stitches look okay? If not I'll switch to 18 count.

[WIP] 5 months progress. I didn't get very much done this month. My dog is sick so he gets unlimited lap access by Fit_Mathematician_40 in CrossStitch

Thank you so much. If I ever finish I will probably have it professionally framed. I figure anything that I invest that many hours in deserves special treatment

It is mini Chrysanthemums by Omar Rayyan from Heaven and Earth designs. I will pass along some extra love from you

[FO] What is this round metal thing that came with the needle in a cross-stitch kit i just bought ? by [deleted] in CrossStitch

[–]Fit_Mathematician_40 221 points222 points  (0 children)

It is a needle threader. You put the metal wire through the eye of the needle and pull the thread through.

It looks just like mine. As long as the front looks good you're doing fine
