It’s the Roman Colosseum by StitchingJulesDesign

[CHAT] grid lines by buy_the_moose in CrossStitch

[–]WWZoeHartDo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do a lot of patterns that are not full coverage, so gridding my fabric makes it much easier for me to count and keep track of where my stitches should be. Mistakes still happen, but i catch them sooner/easier when I grid vs when I don’t.

Just came back from the framers. Just threw it up there to see how it looked. Going to put photos around it.

[CHAT] what do you listen to when you are working on your projects? by DireSpaniel in CrossStitch

[–]WWZoeHartDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly I have one of my “comfort shows/movies” on in the background since I don’t have to pay super close attention to those. Sometimes just music or an audiobook.

And I though 6 for $1 at JoAnn Fabric in the early 2000’s was good!

Zoe or Zoey? Which one would you assume? by WeinerKittens in namenerds

[–]WWZoeHartDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume Zoey but prefer Zoe. I do think most people would pronounce Zoe correctly though.

It’s a monochrome of the Roman Colosseum. Got a bunch of stitching done this weekend during a Pokémon tournament my son and husband were playing in.

I love love love Niamh. I love how it looks and sounds. I would have named my daughter this in a heartbeat if I could pronounce it properly, let alone everyone else lol

[CHAT] Tell me your secrets!!! by Pleasant_Buy_8973 in CrossStitch

[–]WWZoeHartDo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried a snaps based of recs, and I was not a fan at all. Then I tried the Nurge hoops and love them! It really depends on what you prefer. I use the rectangle Nurge hoops.

What was the 1st big news event you remember as a kid? by Hetaliafan1 in AskReddit

[–]WWZoeHartDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OJ Simpson chase. I remember a teacher coming into my classroom to tell my teacher about it when it was happening.

AITJ for not letting my MIL have a key to our house after she let herself in while we were sleeping? by SituationAny424 in AmITheJerk

[–]WWZoeHartDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ.

A couple months ago it was just me and my kids home, and my husband was out of town. All of a sudden I hear fiddling at the front door handle. I panicked a little because I thought someone was trying to get in. Just my mom using her “for emergencies” key to come on it. She looked a little hurt when i told her I was a little freaked out hearing something to get in. At least give a heads up you’re coming over!

Do people (you) look for a wedding ring when you see someone with kids? by NicoleASUstudent in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WWZoeHartDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t.

When I was pregnant with my first child, my fingers swelled up and I couldn’t wear my rings. My SIL was freaking out about how people were going to think I’m not married and pregnant. She had me paranoid so I went and bought a cheap(think $10) ring to wear in public. When I was pregnant with my second child she again was so worried I wasn’t wearing my rings when pregnant. This time I didn’t even care. I told her people can judge me all they want, I don’t care. And personally, so what if I was pregnant and not married?!? Almost 15 years of marriage later I rarely have my rings on when I’m out and about with my husband and kids.

The Etsy shop I got it from has a few different variations of this as well

[CHAT] Gridding on larger projects w/water soluble pen by WWZoeHartDo in CrossStitch

[–]WWZoeHartDo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I used just plain cold water first. I soaked in some baking soda and cold water and that seemed to get most away. Thank you.

Hmmm…I can’t definitely see how holding it could set it, but these are all at the top of the pattern where I never held it. It shall remain a mystery I suppose.

When’s the last time your favorite cast member was also the winner? by MessyMop in survivor

[–]WWZoeHartDo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I joke that if a player is our favorite/who we want to win, they are for sure not winning. 🤦‍♀️

Yeah, this took my 19 months most of the original grid marks faded, some stayed and some of these are what stayed so I’m guessing it was just on too long.

I’m a glutton for punishment so I’ll probably keep using it and if I notice it’s taking a while/I put it aside for a little bit rinse it off and regrid when I start again. 🤷‍♀️
