Ok, I finally done enough posts to see the gallary!!! :dance: I am amazed at a lot of the stuff on there. I have one question, it kinda relates to this topic, but not really...

I have noticed on the WIP's that are in the gallary seem to be worked in blocks or lines going up and down the fabric. I ...

Thanks Pengwenn... I will def try that! I always think I'm on a roll and then realize later the whole thing was off one or two stitches and have to :ribbit:

I love this... y'all are making me feel better and giving me the best ideas!!! Thanks!!! :applesauce: :dance: :applesauce: :dance ...
