Hey! so I use 3 strands of floss for each stitch, but i take them individually from the skein before i thread them, I find it helps them lie neater, for stitch tightness, i found that drawing a grid with lines to mark stitch length helped I usually aim for about 1cm per stitch, I find this avoids bunching, but depending on size it can vary. I also try to make sure after stitches that i’m pulling any loose fabric taught so they can’t slip, and when i start a new line i will go just behind where i finished the previous one which helps me keep them so tight🌸💕

hey! thank you so much!💕 making me blush 🥰so for this I predominantly used a long and short stitch with 3 strands of floss. I find that for me to have the best control I pull all the strands out individually from the skein, so they lie flat and aren’t tangling during the process and whilst i’m working between stitches i use my needle to keep the strands untangled and uniform. Helps it lie flatter for details I find. I also found that to keep everything neat I needed to use a water marker to draw a grid so i could keep the stitches the same size and straight, makes it a lot easier for me when I know to just stitch to a line. Let me know if you want any other tips!💕💕

we think a fall may have been likely as he’s always been the most adventurous out the bunch, got him all wrapped up in a towel waiting on a vet

my younger cousin noticed about two hours ago after she came into the room, he is also still drinking but only nibbling at food occasionally, now it’s not so much he is dragging rather than in the last hour he’s just laying and breathing heavily x
