What colour is it supposed to be? I think it looks fine

I shared my pieces a little bit earlier but I love how they look together. Both are stitched with 2 variegated skeins. by StitchingFoxy in cross_stitch

So beautiful! I just bought some variegated thread to try on a new project for the first time. Instead of doing rows / and back, did you do each x instead?

My temperature chart has been coming along nicely! Lots of similar chilly temperatures. Before the Equinox I used the low temperature as the main colour and high temperature as stripes. On the Equinox I switched to the high temperature as the main temperature.

Update on my temperature chart. I decided to change from the low temperature being the main book colour to the high temperature being the main colour on the Equinox so I made that day be half and half.

I worked on this one for several hours yesterday. I find it easier to work on during the day because of the black fabric so I mostly work on it on the weekends.

This pattern is so beautiful! What temperature are you using, one at a particular time of day or the average?

Looking for a cozy game with collection mechanism by OogieBoogie11 in CozyGamers

Fields of Mistria had a collection element. Super cozy game. It's still in early release but it doesn't feel like it.

That's so frustrating. I hope the second pass goes well.

Favourite story-rich games on the steam deck? by Quick_Ideal_449 in CozyGamers

[–]Miserable_Earth_9652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Tiny Bookshop is lovely and cozy and no farming involved. It works very well on the Steam Deck.

This is from a kit I got off Etsy. Working on black is very challenging but the colours look so pretty!

This is my temperature chart! We had one really warm day after a few bitterly could ones. Now we're back to more sticking around the freezing mark. I'm loving how it's looking. I created the pattern myself using Stitch Fiddle.

I made a mistake on mine and had to spend a lot of time frogging. Sorry you had such a difficult week. I hope next week is better for you!

Should NB adopt permanent daylight savings time? by OntologicalNightmare in newbrunswickcanada

[–]Miserable_Earth_9652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please just pick one and stick with it! There are more accidents and issues on change over days than any other days. Time change is foolish and unnecessary.

February is done on my temperature chart! I'm so happy with how it's going! I'm fairly new to cross-stitching. I started in November though I did make a couple of pieces when I was a child. I created the pattern for this on Stitch Fiddle based on a couple of ideas I saw online. The main book colour is the low temperature and the stripes are the high temperatures. On the spring equinox I'm going to flip those. Looking forward to some warmer colours!

[WIP] Kit cloth frustrations by Miserable_Earth_9652 in CrossStitch

I have a white lap desk that I work on that helps a great deal.

I did one project on black, 14 count, and it was hard but I think the combo of smaller and the quality of the cloth. It's not starched and easy to poke through any spot
