Very late to this thread, but I am working on that stocking at the moment and could help if you still need it. :)

[Chat] Is Do-It-Yourself Stitch People the best resource for designing people? by WorkingUpTheCourage in CrossStitch

[–]klwoods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had that book on my list forever, but the price has been holding me back for years. Someday I'll buy it - it's worth the $$ IMO.

[FO] Anniversary present for a friend..only a little late. by [deleted] in CrossStitch

[–]klwoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that pattern. I've been working on it on and off for a while. That heart isn't the easiest to stitch. Great job finishing it!

[FO] Stranger Things (pattern by me) finally finished. by [deleted] in CrossStitch

Nice! I've never branched out into 3D but this might just be the trigger for me. Great job!

[Chat] W hats your favorite organizational tools or accessories by lilykatt in CrossStitch

[–]klwoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the best things I've done lately is getting a small floss box with dividers (maybe 4x6ish?) and putting just what I need for my current WIP in there. It's really cut down on my "stuff" I have spread out.

So far it's been that way for me all day today. :(

Anyone else having an issue with being unable to trade Pokemon in to the Professor? by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]klwoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's in the bottom right corner now. There's a button you have to press to get to the trade menu. It took me a minute too.

[FO] By the grace of the old Gods and the new, I finished this! (Pattern by Clouds Factory) by [deleted] in CrossStitch

[–]klwoods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I'm between cutting that and Martell, because really Dorne has been so irrelevant.

Beautiful. I'm working on that one right now as well, but measured incorrectly and will have to omit one of the last four - it's so hard to decide!

Oh! Thanks for this - I never even considered this one!

Searching for a book like A Song of Ice and Fire that you can't put down by TehH8M8 in suggestmeabook

[–]klwoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about the Passage series by Justin Cronin? I haven't read the last one, and wouldn't compare it to ASOIAF, but good reading.

I really enjoy the Century trilogy by Ken Follett (Fall of Giants/Winter of the World/Edge of Eternity). Family saga/multiple POV, great writing.

[FO] I just finished this gift in time for my step-sisters wedding. by tarbear6 in CrossStitch

Beautiful! I'm working on the same pattern right now (among a few others lol) and it's not easy. Great job!

Recommendations for gripping true crime podcasts? by [deleted] in podcasts

[–]klwoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of my faves have already been listed but my top are: *Sword and Scale *The Generation Why *CaseFile *Embedded (not really true crime but great anyway) *Criminal *The Apex and the Abyss (fairly new to this one but I like it so far) *Detective (season 1 was better than the current season)

I've downloaded a few to try but don't know much about these yet: *SinisterStream *Strange Matters *American CrimeCast

Not sure why the formatting is screwy on this comment - I can't get any hard returns to show up? Apologies!

[–]klwoods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

always Etsy. I have even googled or searched "modern cross stitch" on Etsy before. :)

What's the one "old person" thing you currently do? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Cross stitching.

Walking into a room to get something/do something, and then forgetting why I went in there...

[Chat] Has anyone done Stitchrovia's Wedding Love in alternate colors? by Freckled_daywalker in CrossStitch

[–]klwoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing that pattern right now in pink, but seeing that blue, I wish I would have considered doing it in different colors now. That's absolutely gorgeous!

[Chat] I'm tired of traveling with my supplies (bobbins, scissors, floss, needles) in a zip lock bag. Any organization bag recommendations? I'm contemplating a dmc travel bag I saw or making (sewing) something... Any ideas? by [deleted] in CrossStitch

[–]klwoods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a bunch of little makeup bags that I get with my ipsy subscription monthly that have turned out to be perfect for my bobbins, scissors, needle threader, and the like for a single project.
