New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

Hi! My name is Kristy but I go by Stitches so either one will work. I have been cross stitching for about 30 years. I know I am old...lol. My mom taught me. Anyhow. I am a work at home mom and LOVE cross stitching. I know duh right? Other things I do....play video games, read, write (I am a published author). I usually work on more than one project at a time. Right now I am working on 5 Harry Potter themed pieces for my best friend's upcoming FIRST baby shower!
I am partial to geek stuff so my works usually are geek related. I am so glad to have found you all and looking forward to meeting some friends who also cross stitch!!
Lynne,
Welcome!
Wow, you're not kidding about frozen! I was in MN once during the winter and thought I was never going to thaw, LOL!
Feel free to post some pics of your work...we love to drool!

It will give you a color graph, so each box is an X
stitch in the appropriate color. Don't try to do half crosses and
the like, it doesn't work as well.
I
actually have a lot of tips:
Add a few
stitches on either side as your first and last stitch are
useless.
I have done a picture tutorial on
how to cross stitch on tunisian.
In this picture I show how to go into
the stitches just under the vertical bars to hide your
tails.
Place your needle just under those
stitches, splitting the tail to lock it in place.
This shows exactly how to place your
needle, by doing it this way the back will be clean. Like this,
sometimes you'll go a bit too deep and have a tad show through, but
nobody is perfect.
If you're more of a video person, one
of my friends made a video after I taught her how, you can find it
here:
