With the big project finished, I embarked on something smaller a month ago…but I put it on hold. Now I’m at it again.

The grid is one square off on one column so the whole thing is off. Any better ways to make an accurate grid? I know pre-gridded is a thing but I have a couple of meters of that plain 14ct fabric that I want to use up.

How has your week been, did you work on anything exciting?

    Honestly I’ve never gridded before so can’t help you there, but hopefully someone has some tips! Looks like a much less involved pattern this time round, that must be a nice break. My guess is some kind of llama pattern?

    Anyway, I’m breaking with tradition today. No cross stitch whatever from me all week. BUT, in the spirit of Halloween I decided to face my great crafting fear, and am trying my first ever hand embroidery piece!

    So far it’s a bit wonky and also my fingers really hurt, but I’m very proud of sticking with it! This is for a video so I’m not posting it anywhere else cos it’s secret. But you won’t tell anyone, right? 🤫
