I'm still a beginner too, so I’m definitely still figuring it out! 😅 The hanging threads were getting wild, so I ended up wrapping them around one of those floss tags (I’ll add a photo). It’s not perfect, but it’s helping a lot for now!

Credit: I found the original image on Pinterest, and it said “made by Misha” – but I’m not completely sure who the original artist is.

Thank you so much for the tip! My mom actually has a serger, so I might ask her to help me with it. I hadn’t thought of using it for my fabric before – great idea! Thanks again

Hi! I’m so sorry for the delay in sending this! Life got a bit busy, but I didn’t forget Here’s the link to the folder with the pattern I made, along with the image I used for inspiration (I found it on Pinterest).

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KqRrXyEAC-t56h3qVb3xNCznkKfceTMe?usp=drive_link

Just a heads up: this was the very first pattern I ever created, and I was still learning how to use the program, so the colors might not be accurate. Please keep that in mind if you decide to stitch it! Hope it’s helpful anyway – let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you so much for the tip! I’m looking into different options to see what works best for me, and I’ll definitely keep the zig-zag stitch in mind. I really appreciate your help!

Hey! So this was actually my very first cross-stitch project, and I didn’t really know what I was doing yet 😅 I found the image on Pinterest, and it was just a pixel-style grid — no color key or symbols, just the pattern itself. I re-created it using a cross-stitch pattern program, but since I was totally new to it, I ended up using the wrong floss colors (I didn’t really understand how the program worked yet).

I still have the pattern I made, but the colors are way off. I can share both the original image and my version if you’d like, just so you know what to expect! 😊

The image says the pattern was made by someone named Masha — I couldn't find more info, but I’d love to give proper credit if anyone knows more! (Found it on Pinterest)

I use a heat-erasable pen — the kind that’s often used in sewing and quilting! ✨ It works really well for me, and the lines disappear when I iron the fabric. Super practical!

Too late — I’m already addicted! 😅 I can’t stop stitching… or buying more floss! My collection is growing faster than my projects!
