I took a look through all my easy guide fabric stash, and could only find a piece of 32ct easy guide to fit the size of this project. It's so teeny! I've been using 25 or 28ct on my other full coverage projects. I did manage to get a little over 3500 stitches into this one and I think it will be enjoyable. There's confetti sections of course, but there seems to be some big sections of one colour that help break up all the fiddly bits as well.
Here's where it's at now:
Kirby by Walking Melons and HAED
stitched 2 over 1 tent stitch on 32ct easy guide
with DMC as charted
You can see the indent where Meta Knight's sword will be, so you can tell I started in the top left corner. It's been enjoyable so far, not too much dithering and works well in Pattern Keeper. I've had to frog maybe 50 stitches or so where I miscounted, yes, despite having easy guide, but that's not too big a deal for me.
For this week I chose another enormous project, I know, I know. But I've been eyeing this one for a while and can't wait to start, even though it looks more confetti heavy than Kirby. This will be this week's new start:
So cute! I love this one. I think I have a few other charts that have books and dragons in them, so not surprising that I have this one too, but I'm finally starting one!
I have the kit from Paine Free Crafts and that will help me stay somewhat organized as well.
I hope you've all had good stitching weeks!
Happy Stitching,
Tiffstitch
