Really just posting this hoping for some solidarity.

I've been working on stitching up Garden Cat since last year. But actually, I'd stitched some of it previously and ended up picking out the whole thing and starting again due to what we'll just call "poor creative choices".

So, last week I finished the garden part and genuinely thought I was done. Got all celebrationy. Took it out of the q-snap and unrolled it to see the full glory....and realised I was just confused from having stitched the sky parts once already but I hadn't redone them yet this time around🤦‍♀️

So that's been my stitching this week. How about you?

Post didn't federate. RIP. I'll just have some crisps and commiserate with myself.

I can see it now on sh.itjustworks!

I wish I had something to share. I have been playing with stained glass instead lately. To be fair I was never very good at stitching. I wish we had a general 'creative / show your work' community for this type of post, because I bet we'd get more traffic!

Hopefully so more people will find your post!

Hurrah! If you want to show me your stained glass efforts in the cross stitch community I won't tell anyone 😉

I did find [email protected] and [email protected] but tbh this place has been way more active than either of those so far. We'll get there!
