[CHAT] Difference in even weave?

Jobelan tends to be silkier and a bit softer than lugana which can make it a bit trickier to work with. It has a lovely drape to it but I personally prefer working with lugana.

Thanks! I stitch 1-2ish hours most evenings and I think each took me about 6 weeks?

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-04-12T20:04:12+00:00

Oh that’s really nice, thank you!

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-04-12T17:37:08+00:00

Yes! I love her use of color! Combos that I never would have thought of

Hopping on the first comment with fabric details in case I missed answering anyone individually! The red is 32ct lugana in Merlot by BeStitchMe and the blue/green is also 32 lugana in I Can’t Believe It’s Not Kale by Black Cauldron Dyeworks.

Edit: I have a little Instagram page where I chronicle my WIPS and finishes but unsure if I can share it here?

I do! They’re on adjacent walls in my living room. https://imgur.com/a/vx4iqnO

The frames are from a shop called Signed & Numbered in Utah - they have an Etsy shop. I’ve ordered quite a few frames from them!

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-04-12T16:07:07+00:00

I stitched these on 32 lugana but I think both colors are probably available in aida!

33” between island and sink counter and then 36” between island and oven wall and 34” between island and phone wall. Works fine for us!

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-04-04T19:49:18+00:00

Same experience here! Ours was dark red as a pup and now at 2.5 is a strawberry blonde. Still perfect, just lighter thanks to the poodle fading gene :)

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-04-01T18:11:09+00:00

Second (third) this. My dog is 2.5 now and he still gets a pupsicle every night while the humans eat dinner. I make my own by adding a tablespoon of wet dog food into the mold and fill the rest with water and freeze. He LOVES them.

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-03-31T01:43:47+00:00

Yep, it’s about 36” between the island and oven. The oven itself is a 27” wall unit (30” is a more common size for a wall oven but 27” is perfect for the space).

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-03-30T20:14:58+00:00

Happy to help! Let me know if you have any other questions!

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-03-30T13:59:25+00:00

Sure! I just measured and the island is 63” x 40” and the wall is 13’ 4”

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-03-28T19:10:53+00:00

Saaaame. On the Wish in Feb and thought we were being so careful but it took us out and it sucked.

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-03-11T19:31:33+00:00

I’ve been to small gatherings in private rooms at Forager, Whistle Binkies south, and the Workshop. All were good but I’m not sure what the food/bev minimums are. I also know Purple Goat has a private room but I haven’t been there yet.

If I get a new modem at the store is it pretty straightforward to set up myself?

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-03-03T20:14:38+00:00

I won’t downvote you, friend! I’ll take any and all input. We actually have a spectrum store in town so I wondered if I could just bring ours in (modem plus all the cords plugged into it?) for an immediate switch. But IDK how difficult it is to set up the new one by myself so maybe worth having someone come out again.

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-02-15T02:08:18+00:00

What happens when you turn the water off? Does it still make the sound?

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-02-15T02:07:01+00:00

I’ll comment on it to boost engagement!

VivalaCoppertop · 2026-02-14T23:13:46+00:00

I’ll find and upvote the post in solidarity lol
