11:28 am - beginner!
[info]illacquired
hello! i recently went to the craft store and bought a whole bunch of little projects to occupy myself with, and i started looking at one today. i have ( this one )
and i was wondering if anyone could help me start it out? i find that the instructions are a bit vague. it says to start at the center, and i found the center. but it them says "From the enter of your graph, count up the number of squares to the top and then to the first symbol on the left. do the same on your fabric. Begin your stiching at that point" i dont know why, but thatseems confusing to me. any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm starting to slow down a bit now that Spring is here. There's just so many outside things to do. Still, I was able to get a lot of projects done in ( April. )

Stitch on!

First of all, I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who replied to the thread in which I asked for help finding a pattern for this project. I'd been thinking about it for years, and all your assistance was greatly appreciated. Especial thanks to the person (you and I know who you are) who sent me the pattern.



I really enjoyed making this because a) the tree was all one colour - I couldn't use the wrong shade! b) no back stitch, only long stitch for the stars (in silver).

I stitched it on a fat quarter of 16 count navy aida, with about 2 skeins of DMC B2500 (for contrast) and one of the DMC silver threads. The image is 32x22cm (12.5x8.5 inches).

This one will be heading west across the Atlantic, so I'm already thnking of making one for myself.

 So, this may be a totally weird request, but if anyone has finished up a Hello Cthulhu, would you mind telling me which color flosses you used on her?

I started barrelling through the project for a second time and I'm trying to get it done by the 9th for my man for his birthday and I think I'm going to make it, but I'm just so unsure as to what color I want to use for her body.
