Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

That's what physical shops used to be for, I vaguely remember back in the olden days.

Oh yes! Good ol' brick and mortars! And here I am thinking I had come upon a new concept. LOL

Yes, I do that on my HAEDs where I stitch by grid rather than cross-country by colour, although I didn't know it had a name. How exciting. I'm off to the Stash & Grab for a coffee, I'm so chuffed at learning something new!

I pretty much do the same thing with all of my stitching when the charts are more than one page in any direction. Never made sense to me to end a row or column of stitches because that is where the grid line stopped. I try to "plot" a path on the chart (why using my iPad rather than paper chart has become essential for me) if there is a lot of confetti or different colors in a section. Hope this makes sense.
