Cross stitch related words

Post by elementaryteacher77 »

I'm doing an embroidery project and I need a lot of cross stitch related words. I am using someone else's design idea, so I thought I might need some different words so it wouldn't be flat out plagiarism!!

These are the words the original design uses...

cross stitch, linen, stash, q-snaps, beads, scissors, floss, needles, aida, counting, charts, WIP, UFO, silks, hoops, relaxation

Can y'all help me with some different words???

oh yes!! frogging is perfect. I'd never thought of it as I seem to repress memories of disasters that required quiet a bit of it!! hahaha
