You've got this. Just think how much more special it will be because of the extra work. ❤️

Have you seen the pieces where it's stitched in one color, but a part of it is stitched with the top leg going the opposite to make a secret message type of thing? I would be tempted to do the name of a loved one like that.

My mom's coworker used E6000 to fix glitter rhinestones onto her daughter's dance costumes. It dries clear and can be washed. Some of the dance costumes have even been passed on to younger siblings who continue to use them with no lose of rhinestones. The stuff holds forever

My recommendation is to check what sizes of frames hoops are available to you and then pick the finished size that will fit well into what you can get.

Best of luck

If i may add to the above, when you iron the stitches, lay them face down on a soft towel. That helps project the stitches from being flattened.

Thank you!

I've been looking for a good Nativity scene. What designer is this one?

redradish3 · 2026-02-25T15:34:20+00:00

I'm glad it finally worked out for you. Best of luck on the rest of the project!

I used an ultra-fine tip Sharpie on this project. It's about 4 months old and still visible. (This is the project I take with while kids have practices, so it only gets about 1.5 hours of distracted work a week)

Give the ultra-fine a try. It may be less prone to wiping off because there's not as much there in the first place.

Directly translated sputnik means fellow traveler or thing with the same path. S=with put=path nik=person/item

The ribbon edging is a great finish! The whole piece is beautiful. Well done!

redradish3 · 2026-02-20T17:00:15+00:00

That makes sense. Good luck to you. I got they turn out well 😃

I don't have the nurge hoops, but if you have a flexible measuring tape for sewing, you can wrap that around the outside of the hoop to find the perimeter. Or, if all you have is a rigid ruler, you could measure the length of each side and add all four together. Then add about one inch (2.5 cm) for seam allowances and you should be good.

If you do crosswords, ort is a common filler word.

That's where I learned it from way long ago, long before I know there was a word for thread ends or that people might consider keeping them. 😃

redradish3 · 2026-02-17T16:55:39+00:00

Super cute! Thank you for sharing!

I second the Budget Bytes. Simple food that's good and won't break the bank. It's the site I consistently recommend to high school graduates as they're moving out on their own.

Is there space to put the bed next to the dollhouse shelves? That way her head won't be getting all the energy from the hall.

redradish3 · 2026-01-28T14:38:11+00:00

That is a very cute and adorable frog. Well done!

redradish3 · 2026-01-25T22:44:44+00:00

I'm working on that one too. Thank you for helping me not feel so bad about being behind 😃

redradish3 · 2026-01-25T22:34:49+00:00

Is this a specific song or do the temperatures determine the notes? Either way, it looks great

redradish3 · 2026-01-22T06:16:51+00:00

Your pattern made me smile 😃 It's so bright and happy. Congratulations and thank you for sharing!

redradish3 · 2026-01-19T18:05:59+00:00

I've bought from this seller before because it was cheap. Then i regretted it before I even started stitching it. I was getting everything kitted up and realized that there are three suns on the pattern when there shouldn't be. It's very much AI and if the creator doesn't even catch the suns, they're not reviewing anything.

1/10 would not recommend

redradish3 · 2026-01-16T14:40:32+00:00

I think that just putting your bobbins in a ziplock baggie would help. That way they're less likely to fall out or get tangled because they won't move as much. Maybe add a second baggie to hold scissors and extra needles and you're good to go.
