Stacey---You did much better than I today. Oh, I worked at many different projects with many different methods but today when I wanted to pick up my dog cross stitch nothing worked no matter how I counted, looked, squinted, etc, etc. I had trimmed the pattern down, both on paper and the fabric project. Because the stitching was spread over eight pages, about a week ago I decided to discard the stitched part of the pattern right into the garbage. I didn't even check the garbage can. I was so totally convinced I had taken it out yesterday and just got more frustrated as I went. When I came to the computer there it was still in the bin. I had discarded one row of grid too many. All will be well but note to self is to keep better track of something like this when I put it on hiatus. Actually it got shoved aside when Vern turned sick this past Dec and just sat there. I just recently felt like tackling it again after I found a smaller frame and could cut back on over half of the stitching, all just boring background. I'll sleep well without worrying about it now.
