Pokemon Epic Cross Stitch Redux

Post by Mistresspaige »

Hi all it's been awhile but I had a terrible accident with my old stitch and lost the motivation to start up again until recently. Fortunetly I've regained my mojo and have started the Pokémon Epic Stitch again. This time on 25ct Lugana 1 over 1 which I much prefer over Aida if I'm honest.

Here we go 18 hours down and 1,701 stitches (113,255 to go) (1.48%)

:applesauce: :applesauce: for your current restart and :applesauce: :applesauce: for restarting it so enthusiastically! It is one of the most colorful and most fun designs I have ever seen! I am so sorry to hear that the first one had a terrible accident, and I'm sure this one will behave much better.

Congrats on your restart. I stitch on much larger (14 ct. aida) and I made a big mistake and got frustrated and stopped for quite a while, so I can't imagine how frustrating this must be sometimes. I'm glad you got it back.

Looks great so far!! :applesauce:

This is a nice restart. I've got a piece that I started several years ago that I've got to see whether or not I will restart. For the time being, I'll just keep working on the projects I've got going.

I am looking forward to more updates on this piece. :D

So glad mojo has returned along with this colourful design. (Lugana is one of my favourite fabrics.) Look forward to the updates. :thumbsup:

I find Lugana so much nicer to stitch on than Aida and the restart is looking great :applesauce:
