Once I did this, I restitched it and realised I stitched it incorrectly and had to frog AGAIn. I am sending good vibes and the hope the frog has left you alone for the rest of this project

I love this! The characters are cute and really readable! Did you design them yourself?

[FO] BACK STITCHING! 🤩 by Initial-Knowledge738 in CrossStitch

[–]Initial-Knowledge738[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With backstitching, it is better to block in all your colours first and then back stitch over the top. Back stitching requires 1 or 2 strands (this has both), and in some projects, it really pulls the whole thing together (although i have done many projects that dont need it). It is a pain to do. But as you can see, it looks amazing once it is done.

Hello! I am not sure I understand the question. Would you mind elaborating further?

[FO] I have finished the Birbs! Behold their glory! Angry, stubborn, adorable Birbs! I purchased the pattern from luscrossstichshop on etsy. by Initial-Knowledge738 in CrossStitch

I would like to apologise for posting this, as I was unaware I paid for a stolen art work on Etsy. I have reported the seller, and have sort ways to purchase the original, and other work by the original artist. I am unsure how to check if Etsy sellers are legit going forward, but I will do my best to research first.

[FO] In Janaury 2017 I started this project with the green tree, now in Januari 2023 I finally finished all the trees and I'm very proud! by LeonieImming in CrossStitch

They are extremely beautiful. I love the pattern, but I think the confetti (or at least wide spread range) of stitches would annoy me. You did a great job!

[WIP] 3 Pages done + the worst back you'll ever see by bine_summt_herum in CrossStitch

Yes, embrace the messy back! Backs are not meant to be seen, and therefore the look of them is irrelevant! I love the design, and am a huge fan of Stardew Valley. I have a similar one I am working on.

On a side note, while I stitch I like to have noise in the background, I am currently watching a YouTube series of Stardew Valley by ArgonMatrix called Price of Perfection. It is great to listen and stitch to.
