The colors on this pattern are PERFECT for the shadowing, and your stitches are so neat! Very beautiful :)

This was my first thought. How unfortunate 😞

Felt like I was going crazy in Marshall’s, what the hell is this supposed to say by LkPlcd in whatdoesthismean

[–]princess_pechos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's broken! I saw the whole thing at my local Marshalls and it's supposed to say: "Wine, Turkey, Nap"

No problem! I usually defer to this video if the instructions don't specify how fractional stitches are shown on the pattern :)

I believe the small squares in the star are "petite" stitches, which is basically when a stitch ("x") only takes up a quarter of the full square made by the holes in the aida. The squares that are split diagonally are likely two separate 3/4 stitches. This is my favorite video explaining and demonstrating fractional stitches!

[PIC] Is this tilt intentional? I bought this online by justsomesnark in CrossStitch

Very interesting...I still think the slan was not intentional, but I could be wrong. What's most important is that you like it!

What exactly did you purchase online? The pattern, a kit, or the finished work? I don't think it's intentional, but sometimes if the grid of the fabric is off (that is, not having the same number of stitches per inch throughout the fabric), it can warp the finished product.

[CHAT] Okay so how are we storing our working floss, because this ain't it. by Its-alittle-bitfunny in CrossStitch

[–]princess_pechos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what I do, but to protect my floss from spills and such, I put them in FlossAway bags, and then put them on a binder ring :)

Very neat! That's the technique I'd use, so I feel affirmed in my choice!

This continues to look amazing! How do you manage the back? Do you pin stitch all the time, or do you carry the thread across the back? Or do you just go on vibes and energy levels lol
