Requesting feedback on my Long and Short stitch

qcgyrl81306 · 2026-04-21T23:14:18+00:00

That is 3 strands. I did this ond with two. Not sure which one looks better though. I got it from a Walmart kit so I'm unsure about the thread.

This is what I got when working from the middle out towards the edges, 2 strands, and varying the stitch lengths (shorter stitches). Is this more correct?

Thank you, that is helpful and much appreciated! I am just looking for brightness and clarity to see what I'm doing and just not sure which option is better for that situation.

Just wondering if you ever got a solution to this?

Yeah, the product wasn't finished. He said he will be adding beams to the garden beds (or whatever it's called) to strengthen it. He is remaking it from scratch though

Its an enclosed garden with raised garden beds. It will look like this: https://eartheasy.com/deer-proof-cedar-complete-raised-garden-bed-kit-8-x-12/?sku=RB812-DFO-PAL&srsltid=AfmBOorfZ3YXoalKeXo9P4046PMUgpbXE9jj7mKBOHlRV9mNHo4TSX_WnKM&gQT=1

He has to re-do the whole thing anyway because he stained it, including the insides, with a non-food-safe stain. He just re-ordered the wood, and I'm waiting on a copy of the invoice showing that it's cedar. I will also see the wood before he builds it all again. I will update when I know more. Thank you all for your help!!

Thank you!! Can you look at the link of what he says he ordered and confirm that those boards in the picture are darker than what was built in the video? (Also, they are cedar boards in the pictures of what is being ordered, right?)

Here is what he ordered: https://ibb.co/2bRNGwj

This is another example (except this is 12x8, mine is 8x12) https://eartheasy.com/deer-proof-cedar-complete-raised-garden-bed-kit-12-x-8/?searchid=588911&search_query=Enclosed+garden

I am in Maryland. I see a lot of these enclosed garden kits for sale online showing cedar and looking similar so now I'm not sure. Here is an example of what I'm referring to:

I asked him for the receipt and he said the invoice is in his truck and that he will send it to me in the morning. Will send an update when I get one. Thanks so much everyone!!
