![24 Hours of Cross Stitch in one weekend? [VLOG]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/MEh9T3_i24o/mqdefault.jpg)
I love finding relatable cross stitch content, its few and far between. Please continue! At the age of 23 I thought I was the only person in their twenties cross stitching!
Haha that was me too! Turns out there are a lot of us on the internet 🥰
I’m 17 😂 and I don’t talk about my secret hobbies 😳😬
20 and cross stitching, you're not alone! Im glad I found this video
I am 23! My granny is teaching me how to cross stitch. I love it.
i’m 20 and i just started cross-stitching! i also knit, bead, and sew 🥰
Thanks for the video. It was super fun to watch… watched it all the way through. I’ve been curious to see how you work a piece from the center. In the video you are working the bottom right quadrant. What do you do for the other quadrants? Do you rotate the piece, doing it effectively upside down in parts? Do you work your x from right to left, working away from the centre in the bottom left quadrant? Fortunately I’ll be doing just a small Christmas ornament so I won’t have to stress over this. It’s great to be able to learn from watching you do the stitching.
Thanks for watching!! I’ve been thinking it’s time for another one of these so your comment came at the perfect time ☺️
On these bigger pieces, I start in the middle and then go where my heart tells me lol, I am an artist so I think of it like sketching the focal point of the piece and then it’s easier to build around it and I have to do less counting. If there are parts that are harder to reach comfortably in the hoop, I totally turn it upside down! Mainly the bottom bits. I try not to waste my fabric so I work with slimmer margins than others probably do.
I really just live by the mantra that hobbies are supposed to be fun so if it’s not feeling fun, change it up. I don’t really have one consistent method as it changes based on my mood lol!
I just got a cross stitch kit for Christmas and I started it tonight, it’s so much fun and so relaxing! Also your channel is great :)
Ah thank you! It is SO fun, welcome to the cross stitch club 🥰
They take a lot of time. I'm working on Christmas stockings for my kids and it takes about 2 years for me to finish a stocking. I'm not a super fast stitcher and I don't work every day but I do put a lot of time in and it takes a while. This is definitely a process craft, just enjoy the process.
Awesome vid. I JUST started cross stitching. As in I did my first lil thing today. It was a quarter sized Kirby. Took me almost 4 hours lmao. Was fun but I think the fabric I used was smaller than yours, because when it was done you can’t see any white. I’m using 3 threads (half my floss) for what I did. I found it super difficult when having to find and get through a hole that was already occupied by 2+ threads. I mean I did it but that just took forever. And I didn’t always make them the same way because the paths I would choose idk, just didn’t lend itself to keeping the way I did a stitch the same. Love your nails by the way
I just started a huge pattern of cross stitch even tho I’m very new to it and watching this helped me learn more tricks amazing video.
I have to sit in a chair to cross stitch.... this video is so fun... I love seeing someone else do what I love..... keep it up!!!!
Thank you so much!!
My introvert self when my friends cancel our plans! Hahaha
Lol so…me all the time?! 😜
Absolutely love ur video and it’s just heartwarming to see someone loving cross stitching as much as I do. I’m so so so excited to start a GIANT Pokémon cross stitch piece in a few days (almost 2x2m lol). I guess I’m not gonna leave my house for the next ten years 😂
In New to all of this and so far this is totally my Jam! I'm enjoying watching you your marathon. It's relaxing to me.
Would you please share where you got this pattern. I love the size and colors and of course Star Wars! Thank you for this and cross stitch tips video!!
you can put the hoop over stitches you’ve already done on larger projects without damaging them?? I haven’t tried that yet!
I haven’t had a problem with it so far! It flattens them a little but that’s not a big deal in cross stitch - I’ve always been a little wary of doing that with embroidery projects though!
Beautiful Star Wars pattern 🥰 and beautiful cross stitching! Love the time-laps stile 👍
This was GREAT!! I love watching a pattern come to life.
Thank you!! It was fun to make!
Omg Yummy Thai is the BEST I just ordered their dumplings last night as well!! Also I would love a crafty live stream! I knit & crochet and would love to have some dedicated time to that!
Amazing! I love crochet, I just wish skeins of yarn didn't take up so much space 😂 ok I'll have to plan something!
I find cross stiching satisying af. I've ordered one for myself. Waiting for it to be delivered
So I can't cross stitch but I do crochet and the idea of doing livestreams would be fun if you could make that work.
Cool! K I'll have to figure something out 🥰
A quick project that is in the public domain. This way someone can use it to make one at the same time.
I'm still very new to cross stitch.
I know it depends on the type of material being used but, is it normal for the material colour to show through the thread?
As I started a big printed piece and I've started a bit using 3 threads instead of two and I'm worried I'll run out of thread.
I really should have gotten a small piece for my first one.
I definitely bit off more than I could chew when I first started cross stitching! It's deceptively difficult lol.
As far as fabric color showing - it all depends on the weave of fabric you're using! The pattern I'm using in this video, for instance, calls for 16 count Aida but I had the perfect size piece of 14 count I wanted to use up so, because the squares are slightly bigger than they're supposed to be, a little more white shows through on mine. Anything 16 count or smaller (meaning bigger #s, more squares per inch), you should be safe with 2 strands. Anything bigger and it's worth maybe using 3.
I know that was a long explanation, but I'll also say that crafting should be FUN and I think there's way too many rules and too much gatekeeping in crafting communities sometimes. Do whatever feels right and looks great to you! :)
@@EmmalynEtc Thanks for the reply. I really did bite of more than I could chew as the one I have is nearly 60*80cm
I think mine is 14 count. I already started mine( going by the grid roughly 200-300 stitches)
Do you think it would look odd to suddenly change to 2 threads?
Or since it's such a big piece you wouldn't really notice in the end.
@@EmmalynEtc It's actually 11CT I have not 14.
Honestly if it’s 11ct fabric I’d stick with the 3 threads! Remember if it starts to be not fun to work on, put it away for a while and maybe do an easy small project in the meantime the refresh you palate a bit and take the pressure off. I think if you’re going to put a massive amount of time into a big piece, you want the end result to be worth the effort and switching to 2 threads partway through might be something that would always bother you when you looked at it completed 💕
@@EmmalynEtc Thanks for the help, I think I'll stick with 3 then. If I do end up running out hopefully the company will help, if not I'll just have to find the best match from my own thread.
If I do find myself getting annoyed, I'll just go back to making bracelets or diamond painting for a while.
HI! How many threads do you use in the needle? i have this problem that i dont know how many because sometimes you can see the white of the fabric behind (sorry if I wrote something wrong, english is not my first lenguage)
You’re good! ☺️ I usually use 2 strands for 14 count fabric or smaller (16, 18, 20 count etc.). If you’re using anything bigger like 11 count, I would use 3 strands for better coverage!
@@EmmalynEtc thank u!
Beautiful sunlit room for marathon stitching! I love your hoop and frame set up- who is the manufacturer? Cheers! 💖
Hi, i love your videos! I was wondering where you got the hoop stand from?
I cant seem to cross stitch quickly without flipping the canvas to see the back every time I need to put the needle through to the front again. Is that just an experience with time kind of skill?
I would say it does come with experience. The more you stitch the easier it will get 🙂☺️
greart vid bruh did u ever live stream crafting cause that sounds like great content
I did when we lived in an apartment!! Now that we're in a van I'm not sure how to make it work 😫
Love the Video! Love the pattern!
Please Share this Kind of Content more often 😍
Greetings from Germany ❤
Thank you! Will do! 🥰
How do you look at the patterns and correspond it to the canvas? I’m a complete beginner and I want to start this hobby
How do you do this with those nails I love the look so much
YOUR AWESOME 😊
Nice. But you would be more efficient and use less thread if you stitched in rows, first doing all the forward slash stitches of the same color in a row (working left to right), and then doing all the back slash stitches in the same color in the row (working right to left), then moving to the next row. This is faster, and your stitches will look more consistent. Never seen anyone stitch each separate X like you do.
I stitch like that too, it's the english Method. I Think there are a Lot of People stitching like that..
Interesting! I think the method you're referring to is the Danish method while doing the complete X is the English method. I do both depending on where I want my thread to end up. Honestly, a lot of the fun of cross-stitch for me is the puzzle of getting my thread from one point to another while "bridging" as little as possible and with complicated patterns that use lots of small color sections and even individual stitches, I find it easier to use the English method a majority of the time. Floss is so cheap, I'm not too concerned with using a little more if it means a more fun experience! :)
Hello. do you use different number of threads on different colors?
Can you share where you got your little hoop holder/stand? Been looking for a smaller one that doesn't stand on the floor (if that makes sense lol)
I think she said in another video that it was on Amazon. I have seen them there, also
I always feel weird being a skater and not the typical person to cross stitch especially being a guy
Dont! That's really cool!
this girl looks so much like that workout chick people are obsessed with on tik tok. Like almost identical
