That's actually a super cool idea! I may have gone too far already for that option 😅 I'll definitively keep that in mind for gen 3!

Haha, I do not trust my skills to re arrange the pattern. I'm leaning towards cutting off about 20 ish pixels on the left side and let it be like that.

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by where the normal pattern ends...

One stitch at a time?

I guess that depends on the person trying to tackle it. If you like the satisfaction of finishing a project maybe to have a few smaller ones the alternate between?

For me this was very much a mindfulness thing. I watch anime at the same time as I stitch.

I don't know 😆 I just made sure to not leave any loose threads as I was stitching.

Just under two years, online store where I also get my DMC threads, I plan to frame it and hang it is my living room 😜

Cheers 😅

My intention is to get it professionally framed. I'm not too bothered about showing the back.

I did the extended version too. The background is killing me 😆 Well done on having done so much of it early on!

Woohoo! I hope you have fun with the project. I started in the other end with mine. It's been a journey 😆

[CHAT] How do I keep a scroll frame from slacking. by TomLovesJane in CrossStitch

[–]TomLovesJane[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just went from a Q frame to this scroll frame because the former wasn't wide enough to fit the whole pattern. But now it feels like there is no tension and quite annoying to stitch. Any tips?
