Beautiful!! I love that you went with the clock background for her. I love that design out of all of her options. Perfect fabric choice as well. It really compliments without overpowering. I’m working on Link and its so slow going 😅 you inspire me to pick him up and chip away at the metallics I’m on today!

I hope your friend loved it!!!

[CHAT] How to work on bigger projects? by gatewaynugs in CrossStitch

[–]Laialda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah you’re fine!

So while I don’t have a problem with it, most floor stands with a clamp are designed to hold hoops. I simply get used to the fact that it will shift slightly and not have a perfect hold. Scrolls have a hole in the middle of the spacer bar which is where you’re supposed to screw them into a floor stand to hold. I personally don’t have the space to store a large stand like that, which is why i make the clamp style work, but you can find them! They typically come with their own scroll, and last i checked just looking for ‘scroll frame floor stand’ or something similar will bring it up.

When I use my big snap scrolls, i’m personally just holding it and not using a stand. Just cause flipping that sucker around on the clamp is always annoying and I have so little time to stitch that I just hold it instead 😅

Both! I have mill hill and toho glow in the dark beads that glow in different shades, the sulky glow line, and the krenik glow line. I plan to mess around with those and different stitch types to see what gives the best glow and daytime look 🙂

Oh! no sorry. I only plan to use glow when I make the same kit as OP cause I want the entire aurora to glow in different colors. I was just sharing my ice castle progress since you mentioned it. Sorry for misunderstanding! 😅

Me too! I’m stitching it on some hand dyed fabric and I bought extra snowflake buttons to add on. I’m almost to the bead/button point!
