The kimono is stunning!!!! I have to agree with you about samplers I just don't care for them and have never found one that I thought I have to have that.

All of your work is very lovely!!!!!!

clockwork says:

TIP FOR GRIDDERS!!!: Measuring is more accurate AND faster than counting. Take a bit of scrap paper, lay it on your fabric, count out one block of ten, mark the paper at each end of the ten block, use that to grid! Or, they probably make special rulers for that... but if your fabric is shrunken or something, as long as it's the same all the way through, the count won't be wrong! And if you're really worried, counting between the lines to double check is still easier than counting it out the first time!

I actually have a ruler for cross stitch holes....it is sort of thin, floppy plastic made by Darice. I have never used it....really it never even occurred to me to use it in the way you mentioned!

I bought it because I think I need all things cross stitch!

Your finishes are lovely!

Of course I can post occasional updates. I just can't make a common thing of it because I am very prone to forgetting it seems, and with my wrists worse than ever and a bunch of unpleasantness piling up in my life, my cross stitching comes in little bursts instead of steadily. but every once in a while I will post something. I'm guessing that this one is going to be slow-going.
