Hey Bestie(my apologies to your old best friend)!!! You are a riot! First things first, you are such a beautiful stitcher! I cannot handle how pretty your projects are and how cute your color choices are. The fabric for the Cafe Cup project is adorable! I’m with you, I have decided I officially only like over one on Aida, on Linen, I think I need to do over two! Now, we need to address the Cheetos…. They’re hot, you should see me with the Flammin’ Hot Cheetos’, just one of those has me breathing fire for a solid hour!

Just found your channel and love what you are working on. I just bought a couple of full coverage from TAM designs Anne of Green Gables and Whimsical Village and still in the kitting up stage just wondering your opinion if 16ct or the gridded fabric for doing it the first time? I was thinking Whimsical to be the first one. I just got back into stitching couple years ago I did back in the 80's and 90's, my daughters still tease me about the geese.....haha!
@PickwickTurtle3 ай бұрын
My one full coverage has been on 25 ct gridded so I am not sure about 16 ct. I do like gridded fabric but I think there are methods to grid a non-gridded fabric if you are willing to put in the work. Let me know what you decide

Do the death by cross stitch! Years later I still want to do that and the pandemic piece but can’t decide on a color scheme. I think I should just do black and white and invert it for the second one I do. Too many choices and I could’ve been done with one by now. This video is giving me my stitchy bug back. Can’t wait to start cozy cafe! I may dig out some more kits while Evie takes her nap later 🤔
