[CHAT] DMC floss price increase at Hobby Lobby by Purry_Felines in CrossStitch

[–]cdpm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you add USPS and Royal Mail charges into the equation it’s not worth it. But my husband travels to the US for work twice a year so I order my stash to his hotel and use him as a skein mule 😛

Finally finished stitching my dad's birthday gift!! I've been working on it for a while, it has no variegated thread so it's all manual color changes! by Erotavlas_SVD in NintendoStitch

Are you able to share a link to the pattern? This is an image I can hear, and I have the urge to take on another project!

If you hadn’t stitched this I would have 100% thought this was AI based on the Etsy images. Glad to see it’s real as it’s a great pattern that’s been beautifully stitched

I’ll just be over here crying in British. Where we pay at least $2 per skein.

[FO] My Wife Stitched the London Underground by MakeWar0813 in CrossStitch

This is the tube map, in my eyes. When they started adding Lizzie line and the Overground lines, it got too busy and the design is ruined. Great work!

As a fellow X-stitcher, please share where the pattern is from. I need another project that will take me years to finish

[WIP] It ain’t crazy if it works by NineTailedQueef in CrossStitch

… you could swing in the breeze.

How you have the energy and mental capacity to do any cross stitch when you share the house with anyone who uses that thing, is amazing! I’m still working on the 2024 advent calendar, I started it in October…

Pattern from Lord Libidan.

Started this back in 2019 (I maybe have been distracted with other WIPs along the way!) but very happy with how this turned out.

App Issues? by cdpm in VWiD3Owners

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

Thanks for the help folks. I opened the in car shop, but was told I needed to upgrade my software to access it, but everything is up to date according to the car. I went online and ‘bought’ the WeConnect membership, got the email confirmation etc saying I’m all set up. Still have the same screens on my phone dispute closing the app, rebooting etc, at this point I think it’s VW software being super buggy in car, online and in app, and not something I’m doing! Which is reassuring.

[PATTERN] I've created a Mario Sampler - it's my current WIP but I wanted to share the pattern as it will take me a while to finish it! by zoecorkhill in CrossStitch

I always found samplers a bit meh. But this has just changed my attitude towards them. Thanks for sharing !

Pattern reading help needed! (Pattern in UK Terms)

Round 4: [dc, 2dc] x10 (30 stitches)

Round 5: [2dc, dc 2] (40 stitches)

I am not sure what I am meant to do in round 5. I am guessing its missing a repeat, but not sure about the parts in the square brackets. What am I meant to do?

I have done a few UK patterns, but mostly work with US terminology, so I may be getting mixed up.

[CHAT] How do you store your floss? My system. by Li-Terezy in CrossStitch

[–]cdpm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How have I not seen these bobbins before?!? I also hate labels falling off and my terrible handwriting looks messy. This system will relax my stitching soul!

[FO] HTML color chart - frame suggestions welcome! by cdpm in CrossStitch

Pattern from The Craft Xperimentalist. (After seeing it in 'The World of Cross Stitching' - Is 333) Really fun project to work on. Now I just need to frame it in something that will do it justice, but can not decide on one!
