    Great projects, I love your choices. Something I do to help with counting; I keep a needle threaded with a length of sewing thread, something you can see against your fabric. I do a running stitch ( over 2, under 2) for the number of stitches from one motif to the next motif, then pull the thread out, put it on the needle minder for next time.I learned that counting trick from Jean Farrish; she has great tutorials for people transitioning to linen
