DHI'm solidly back in my cross-stitch era. With a vengeance. Trying my hand at full coverage and large pieces and designing and all of the things. Please show me your WIPs so I may make heart eyes at them.
Kristin Bailey@thecozydh I have been itching to work on this again, but I have to finish a crochet project first.
@KBaileyBooks Love it! Thanks for sharing. I love that traditional style of design.
@thecozydh @KBaileyBooks thanks, I am exploring my heritage
Leblue@thecozydh welcome back! I started cross stitch in August of 2022 and started my first full coverage January of 2023. It's easily my favorite way of doing cross stitch! Here are the three wips I've got. A wedding picture that's an anniversary gift for my wife, a set of princess silhouettes for my kids' room, and a scene from chrono trigger that got me into the hobby.
Best of luck and stick to it even if if it's very piece meal :)
@kagerai_leblue I'm so impressed by full coverage from photos like that. And I love the Disney one!
@thecozydh Yeah the person I purchased the pattern they made from the photo did a great job.
My kids are excited for me to finish the Disney one so it can go up in their room.
I've done a few smaller things but I know full coverage scratches the progress itch way better and let's me do pictures and stuff I could never hope to paint/draw.
Vee@thecozydh Well, at the moment I've pivoted to knitting, but here's one I finished just after Christmas. It's going to be a throw pillow for my sister if I can find backing fabric that I like.
@jugglingscarves that's so pretty! And I definitely didn't read it as "a pillow to throw at my sister". Nope.
