Super cute and living the progress. I try to do about 300+ stitches a day myself. A 24 hour weekend witch fest sounds fun and also full of hand breaks.
Thanks! 300 daily is impressive, and so far out of my reach. Just have too many other craft projects on the go, which I suppose you could argue is my own fault.
Just thought to actually check how many stitches I did during this and it’s 2345, which yes that’s less than 100 an hour, but I had to do some frogging and also was very tired by the end lol.
Definitely a lot of fun though, maybe you should get the April edition in your calendar 😉
Thanks! It was hard work, 8hrs a day doesn’t sound unmanageable until you remember you’re an adult who needs to do other things too! But at least I didn’t have to cheat and extend it into Monday this time which is my usual strat 😅
I’ve done both. I prefer even weave to aida, and I like stitching over 2. I don’t think it looks like aida at the end. IMO it looks like tapestry. If you stitch over 1, it’ll be very hard to do half stitches (if there are any in your pattern). Over 1 looks like petit point to me, so I guess each has their place depending on what you’re going for.
I’m enjoying it so far! I stuck to something pretty simple since this is my first time using evenweave, so no half stitches here lol! I do have some patterns that involve a lot of half stitches that I kind of gave up on when using aida so I may try those again with evenweave and stitch over 2 on that one
