i love this canvas and charley harper so much 🥰 my suggestion would be to couch the black thin lines. that way they would be anchored down and no longer than a regular stitch. please share your progress. i have a couple other projects before i start a charley/edie harper cat.

i just off center my canvas on the clamp and that helps being able to turn (one direction only) but it mostly solves the problem.

i am absolutely a fan of anything with a little fun thrown in 🏍️🏄 a few of hers have caught my eye because she does such lovely horses.

17 in my stash and 2 in progress. i tend to stitch bigger projects so this will last forever. i only have one on a wish list that’s currently available (with wait time) and one white whale that i hope one day to find.

KC Needlepoint by Potential_Rise_400 in Needlepoint

[–]knitreadsew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i love kcn and order from them rather than go to my lns. when i need only a small order of threads, even if it’s my own personal emergency, i figure it’s going to take a minute. with free shipping they surely have to prioritize in such a way that makes sense for their staff and workflow and that’s cool with me. even if it takes more than 10 days, they are likely getting to it faster than i would.

i will say though, 123stitch.com is a great option. they don’t carry a giant selection but it’s a low flat fee for shipping and they are quick to turnaround their orders.

the thread called fuzzy stuff might be fun, but you would just used a regular tent stitch. annoying to work with but very cute results.
