How do you get rid of the gridding afterwards, does it wash out?

You've made a great start on a beautiful project!

It will wash out in a 40degree wash but I washed some in cool water in the sink just to test it and it did fade pretty well.

I'm kinda hoping that the coverage using 2 over 1 will mean that unless it gets dirty I can get away without washing it.

Finding it hard to get into it to be honest :(

Think its because I'm waiting for one thread that seems to feature alot in the first corner which i forgot off the list when I ordered and I'm not looking forward to having to fill in the gaps.

great start! beautiful project, and I really like that pregridded fabric, I went and found some online, thought it might help with as many counting errors as I've made in the past on my own hehe.

Wonderful start :)

What I love about the Magic Guide is that the lines are pink :D My marker is blue, I would prefer pink. But since I love grinding buying Magic Guide isn't an option for me :lol:

If you like gridding you should offer a service to grid for all of those who can't stand it! :lol:

Shifting this up while I found it becuase i hope to have an update picture worth showing in the next few days.

Some of you may recall from another post that have restarted this so its 1 over 1 rather than 2 over 1.

It's a beautiful design. :wub:
HAED's are certainly not for the faint hearted, that's true. I admit that, although I love the designs, I'm not yet brave enough to try them. :oops:
