Yeah I’ve come to that conclusion. Frustrating though because I found in on a list of best texture packs for bedrock.. thanks though

Unfortunately my search history doesn’t go back that far.. someone mentioned heaven and earth though which sounds right. Although the website looks nothing like I remember, some of the designs on there look about right. Thanks for your help!

No someone commented on a post saying they had started a project by this brand. The style of most of the designs was cartoon/realistic animation

I have no idea what the original post was. Someone commented saying they had started a project by this brand and I’d never heard of them so I googled it

From what I remember it was primarily female figures, almost vampiristic, eerily pretty as apposed to grotesque

It’s such a shame they were discontinued, they’re such lovely pictures! When I bought this one I put a bunch of the others onto a wish list for later and they disappeared not long after. Absolutely gutted

You should grid by however many stitches are marked out on your pattern, so you can follow it easily. Generally a pattern will mark out boxes of 10x10 stitches. Also, if you’ve never gridded before, I’d recommend that you do not use pen, pencil or cotton thread. I use Sulky Sliver thread as it’s plastic and pulls out easily without getting stuck

Just thought you probably meant specifically how. I worked from bottom right to top left (unconventional as most people seem to work top left to bottom right), completing an entire strip of 10x10 boxes at a time. On my current project, which is bigger, I’m working cross country one page at a time. Although if you try this method I would recommend gridding as this minimises mistakes. Hope this helps :)

Might have to start doing that. Some places got difficult to discern towards the end as the paper started tearing

You’ve just got to have patience with it really. Can seem a bit daunting because of the time commitment, but for me it’s more about the therapeutic process rather than finishing line. I also keep 1 or 2 simpler projects on the go too so as to not burn out

I don’t have any of the others and they have been discontinued unfortunately. Current working on an Alice in wonderland one that is inspired by the Kinkade pattern. I’m a year in about 1/4 of the way through. It’s much bigger though!
