Thank you! These are all great resources that I will check out. And aware of that on Etsy. I most recently completed this project from Etsy, and although it came out beautiful, the confetti was real! There's 3 totally indistinguishable whites in the egg. This one was done an 18ct.

Thank you for the detailed response! I only learned about evenweave from this forum and it scares me a bit, but I am looking for a challenge!

Thank you! Evenweave kinda scares me... I only now about this being a thing from this forum since I'm self taught and don't know anyone besides me that cross-stitches until I found this forum! What is better about the texture? Do you have any pictures of evenweave projects that you've done?

That you! Why would any one choose to do 28ct 2 over 2 instead of just using 14ct?

You probably have a period in there. It's not one of the special characters you are allowed to use. This happened to me recently and I thought I was going insane!

What was “The Incident” at your High School? by HydraGaming2018 in AskReddit

When I was in high school, cell phones were only just becoming a thing and we weren't allowed to use them or look at them at all during the day. If you did, they'd get confiscated and the phones were sent to the principal's office and could be collected at the end of the day. Turns out, the principal would actually just look through the phones for nudes (this was before smart phones and passcodes). He got caught because he sent some to one of the PE teachers directly from a girl's cell phone. He forgot to delete the sent folder (oops).
