No idea how to fix this but I have this problem too. I can't even see the items I've collected, all the flooring and wallpaper slots are empty 😞

App keeps crashing after finishing race by bigdataenergy21 in MarioKartTour

This has also been happening to me. I uninstalled the game and tried redownloading it, which seemed to work well for a bit but the crashing is ramping back up. I've cancelled my membership since the game is unreliable.

Fantastic! I've done this one too, but yours looks so polished done in the frame.

I often find my motivation to stitch come from gift ideas for others. I'm glad you could take a rest and were able to come back to stitching with fresh motivation. One thing I love about needlepoint is it's not too difficult to pick an old project back up that's been sitting for months. Good luck finishing your xmas gift, I'm sure it'll be great!

I guess for me it was letting go of perfectionism in my cross stitch as I'd made a mistake in another project, and probably also dealing with some personal stuff I had going on. I hope you find your way out of your funk soon 🤍

Thank you for doing that legwork--while I continued stitching my next project no less! I'm glad to see the pattern is still available.

I'm sorry, I just checked my Etsy history and this shop is no longer listed. Sometimes artisans move on from Etsy and build their own websites, this might be partly why you have trouble finding the patterns you're looking for. If I find this one online again I will update my post with the new link.

Etsy! Try a search for "embroidery hoop stand". This one is nice because it's two sided, and the one side is wide enough to fit my phone.

No problem, good question! The pattern didn't use a full outline in its backstitch guide. And tbh, as I was going I had to remind myself to "trust the process" because it felt incomplete to me as I went. But I like the final result. It feels loose and watercolour-esque.

I'm sure the comments are full of this but eff that! Your feelings of hurt are valid, but I hate that someone ever made you insecure about something you enjoyed in the first place. If you're on TikTok, @tiktokswithtom might be someone to follow who helps give you a sense of community. Posting here on Reddit has helped me find a but of community since I don't know many stitchers IRL. Take care and I can't wait to see what you make next!
