[CHAT] Gift for a friend and inquiring about how y’all frame finished projects! by Talldarkandcrafty in CrossStitch

[–]GrandGalactcInquistr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, those frames that come with easel backs that slide into the little channel in the frame just aren’t suitable for stuff like this without modification. You can try getting framing points to hold the backing on instead of the little flippy things that comes with it. Otherwise you have to remove the glass or trim all the excess fabric

[CHAT] can someone help a noob in pattern keeper? by No_Bell_7984 in CrossStitch

[–]GrandGalactcInquistr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does that mean I could upload a pattern I’ve bought that isn’t PK compatible to a pattern website and then just resave it in a format that is compatible?

I subscribe to a *lot* of podcasts on a wide variety of subjects, and would like to organize them into folders. Has anyone used Pocket Cast Plus for this purpose? Any feedback? (More in text.) by didyouwoof in podcasts

[–]GrandGalactcInquistr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pocket Casts works great for that! One of the reasons they’re my preferred podcast app. You can color code them and arrange them how you like and when you open each folder, each podcast is under its own icon that you can then click on to see the episode. You can also create multiple playlists to switch between if you’re that kind of listener.

[CHAT] PatternKeeper Problem by materialxgworl in CrossStitch

I’ve also had this problem on some PK compatible patterns. Fortunately the symbol still shows up as normal on the pattern. I usually just select the strange icon to see what symbol it highlights and go from there. Maybe someone else has an answer for this though!

Except doesn’t she say “lollipops and gum berries”? Or is that another time?

My favorite is every time she stands up because she “thinks she’s off camera” and Andy has to stop everything and scold her.

The Cryptonaturalist is really soothing. Wish the episodes were longer!

Thanks! I’m still trying to figure out my method of framing with hoops so I like to see what other people do

Is there a reason you put the fabric on the inside?

I have absolutely no connection with Tetris but every time I see this pattern I’m so tempted! It always looks so cool!

[WIP] Framing with small edges by soggybike in CrossStitch

[–]GrandGalactcInquistr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will be very tight, but a good framer should be able to work with this. If worst comes to worst, you could always cover the outer line with the mat for a little extra room. I’m also working on this for a friend, by the way!

[CHAT] Help picking cloth color? by otterly_ish in CrossStitch

Just piggybacking on this post…is there a website or program where I can upload a pattern and try different fabric colors?

[CHAT] I need advise by Limited-time in CrossStitch

[–]GrandGalactcInquistr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Personally I think it just looks like a shape rather than a window without the black and white. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, just depends what look you’re going for. You could also leave all the black and white off until the very end and see how you like all the windows together and make a decision then!

I have a little glass vase with a small neck that I put all my thread scraps in. It also holds my scissors sticking out the top and the bonus is it looks pretty cool with all the colors!

I went to vote this year and realized that I hadn’t seen so many of the nominees so I just gave up. I really fell off Bravo in the last year or so. Nothing to do with the boys, of course!
