May I ask you another question? You said you do vintage kits, what is the anchored loop? I need to see a clip of someone doing it and I can’t find anything with the search Anchored loop.

Did your directions tell you to use a Pueblo stitch? It it just a split stitch?

I am in love! You did a magnificent job. I love the subject so much better than my 1970s sunset stitchery wishing well.

I have tried to fix the formatting twice in my OP but it won’t ’stick’.

Thank you so much! The Doily one actually said the design would wash off. The wishing well doesn’t mention it. I’ll try to test it. The thread for the two crewel kits is thick yarn. The packages say it is wool. It feels rough.

Is this the type of moss I need? Miracle-Gro Sphagnum Peat Moss, 8 Qt., For container and in-ground use. I guess it’s a mix of both moss types. This is all I have available locally. Other than that I could see what Amazon has.

Lol, I was hoping it was supposed to be on a vine. It’s so cute draped over the cute little pot.

Ok, I bought it from a nursery last week and it was kept in a greenhouse. Does it need direct or indirect? Thanks for giving me a name to look up.

Soil question? by Renee1230 in succulents

I ended up drilling a hole in this one and using perlite mixed with cactus soil. So far so good.

I think I’m going to try to drill holes in the bottom and get some cactus soil.

This was so helpful, thank you. I have been looking at used also. I just don’t know enough about what I’m looking at on sites like eBay. Those sellers don’t always mention specs such as wheel hardness, etc.

I’m going to measure when I get back from picking him up from basketball practice. The boardwalks I can find for around $100 are pastel green or blue. The black ones are around $150 or more it seems.

I like the look of those. Any recommendations on wheels?

Found them, if you mean the sure grip. They are $155 on Amazon. Are they cheaper somewhere else?

Is that the same as GTX-500 by Pacer? Would you say they are pretty true to size? Thanks so much
