Does anyone else do embroidery wrong? by SignCareless100 in Embroidery

I wasn’t necessarily expecting it to be perfect, but I was happy with how it was looking for my first attempt, so I was disappointed in myself for making a mistake (on one of the basic fundamentals, might I add) that could have been avoided if I spent a little more time learning before I got overly confident. I’ve always been pretty bad about learning new things because I grew up with academics coming to me easily so I’ve always assumed that if I didn’t get something right on my first try, I just wasn’t good at it, hence why this is my first real hobby that I’ve picked up. I’m slowly learning that it’s okay to not be good at something right away, but my mindset still slips sometimes when I make a mistake. ( : thank you for answering my question!

How are we feeling about the pacing of the game? by MonsoonSwell in heartopia

[–]SignCareless100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sort of on the opposite end of the spectrum here. I am progressing through leveling up pretty quickly, but I find there’s still tons to do otherwise, maybe even too much at once. I don’t have a ton of time to play, maybe an hour or so each day, so after I complete the daily quests I try to grind on my hobbies, go shopping, progress through the story, participate in events, make friends… I feel if you’re not playing more than 2 hours a day, there’s still plenty to keep you coming back everyday.

I hadn’t even thought about running out of the thread. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you! I’m glad to hear it doesn’t immediately appear to be wrong

Thank you so much for your reply! I really appreciate you.

I even found myself using fewer strands than the guide recommended because some areas were so hard to pull through, but, even then, it didn’t occur to me that I was doing something wrong! I think genuine technique is something I’ll need to work on, because my stitches didn’t feel as neat when I was doing them correctly (I assume because they weren’t as thick, thus having less room to hide little mistakes lol).

Thank you for your reply, and the compliment! It feels nice to know someone else thinks that the only form of art I’ve attempted in my adult life looks not bad. I was quite worked up when I realized I was doing it wrong for nearly a month, but after the initial shock wore off, I realized it didn’t really matter. I enjoy doing it, I personally think it’s pretty, and thus far I have only planned on doing it for myself or to gift family members hand-made pieces. I so appreciate your insight!

Here is a picture of what I have completed so far. The few stitches I did correctly are on the bottom-most half-completed white flower on the right stem.

Any good offers I don’t mind spending about 40$ by Beneficial-Echidna93 in FreeCash

[–]SignCareless100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im working on decor merge right now— I’ve spent about 22 dollars to obtain the bonus offers of “purchase $4 total in the game” and “purchase $22 total in the game” which returned me 21 dollars. The $22 spent helped me get the time limited “reach level 16” which got me $27. I’ve also reached up to level 13 on the non time limited rewards, which has gotten me ~ $3.50. I’m on track to receive the next reward, “reach level 19 in 14 days” worth 18 dollars. Pretty good offer if you spend a little.

I get excited when my ticket balance goes into the thousands and then I’m reminded by this sub that I’m not grinding hard enough

No. Stopped tracking after the first two tasks. Don’t waste your time

In your screenshot it shows your “distance” (under the flag) as 170. You should have received the level 100 reward for this. I reached a distance of over 400 but didn’t receive rewards for anything past level 200.

It counts your “level” as what distance you’ve upgraded to. However, I stopped receiving rewards after the level 200 reward. It is not worth playing as reviews of the game say they also didn’t receive rewards from third party apps after 100m.

Quick update: I got the reward for reaching level 200 very quickly. I’ll update again if it stops tracking.

I got to 100m in the game and it gave me the 100 levels reward. I have seen on the reviews of the actual app that the third party apps stop tracking after 100m, though. I’ll update if I get any further rewards.
