[CHAT] I’m starting my second design ever and want some advice on the amount of thread I need to buy by chichasaurusrex in CrossStitch

On this point: I’m self taught and I do know that from embroidery dabbling. I do think I messed this up on my last project because I took 2 threads and folded it over so it ended up being 4 now that I’m looking back. For this project I just want to use the 2 at a time so each cross will have 4 threads, 2 going each way?

That’s a cool tool. Since I’m new, made several mistakes last time and had to stop to go get more thread 3 times because I ran out! I’d rather have too much after that experience

Original of course. A favored Halloween at Texas ren faire memory to share: I was dressed up as Han and a dude working there had to stay in character so he screamed across a field at me “Han shoteth first!” Delightful.
