19Roland19's Stitching - Updated July 22/page 22

[19Roland19]

I don't know when I can get to the craft store so I decided to start with material on hand, so this is being done on 14 ct Aida.

It's all kitted up and just waiting for me to start.

I love seeing this one so please keep us updated!

[MartaAre]

Yes, please keep update!
Where did you buy the kit? Is one of my dream kit!!

[19Roland19]

I got the pattern from someone at this site. http://www.crossstitchforum.com/viewtop ... =4&t=11965" target="_blank" target="_blank" target="_blank And when I say "kitted up" I mean I went through my stash and got everything ready to go....thread, material, needle, scissors, and of course Sir Lance-a-lort, who sits in my sewing corner, waiting to be fed.

ETA: skitzzzz that's who designed it.

[MartaAre]

Thank you!

[Brekkana]

This looks fun! Can't wait for progress pictures

[millymolly]

[krissa]

I can't wait to see this one! My girls are both big Who fans, so they would love something like this!

[vanessanjf]

Great project! I am looking forward to watching this one

[19Roland19]

It's started. This is my first day of stitching. I will try to update weekly.

[Brekkana]

Great start!! I agree with fizzbw - I'd love to do this one! Starry Night AND the TARDIS? Hard to beat that combination.

Yes, I have named him Sir Lance-a-Lort. I figured since I emptied him before starting this I'd add him to the picture to show how much he gets fed. When I start a new thread I put the paper in their too. And broken threaders, needles, etc.

Interesting. May I borrow this idea? So much cuter than a hanging Walmart bag pinned to the wall next to my chair lol!
(Side question, do you break needles often? That kind of threw me for a loop ... just curious, is all )

Go for it. I love having a place to put everything so it isn't floating around my living room.

I don't break needles often, but occasionally. More often I throw them out when they lose their shine. After that, they just don't seem to go through the material so smoothly.

Fantastic start We're all fans of Dr Who in my household I'll be looking forward to more updates

[Ayasienna]

beautiful start!! Just curious, but what size Q-Snap are you using in the photo? I am trying to figure out what size Q-snap I should start with. It's between the 8x8 and the 11x11. Thanks and really love your start.

[19Roland19]

I use an 8x8. I would find bigger difficult to hold.

Usually I use a roll, like the cardboard inside a tin foil roll. But when the material is too wide I use my Qsnap.
