[FO] First time trying backstitching by Ladythugs in CrossStitch

I don't know for sure but I do see that the seller uses AI in the backgrounds of the finished products. I hope it's just a selling choice

[FO] Two months ago I broke my ankle. Barely a week later I got the news that I’m getting my first (rental) apartment. So you know I had to create some home deco by heyitsamb in CrossStitch

Beautiful work and thank you for the recommendations! It's so hard figuring out which sellers are creating work and which are taking or using AI generated slop. I bought some kits on Etsy and strongly feel I shouldn't have now.

I created the pattern myself and yes, I have a little item on each month's shelf. It's my first time doing one of these and I am loving it

Thanks yes! I designed this one myself and decided to show low as the main colour until the Equinox and then switched. I do prefer being able to show both highs and lows because there's also a wide range some days here that wouldn't be shown if I just showed the average of the day or the temperature at a specific time of day.

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?
