You really helped my out I had started a project and counted really really bad full coverage anyway I was running out of thread and emailed the company and couldn’t figure out what the number was of the thread till I watched your video I felt so stupid when it was right before my eyes anyway thank you so much for saving my project I have learned a lot from you some things I still don’t know how you get some of your information but I will keep watching
Great and interesting video. How well do your heat disappearing pens work for you? Do they completely disappear and do they ever reappear? I hear with some pens that cold weather can make them reappear. Do you use stands other than the Velke Potoky when you're not holding a hoop or qsnap in hand? A stand demo would be cool if you have a setup.
Hi! I actually used a blow dryer because I don’t have an iron. To me, the ink disappeared and so far had not had any issues of it reappearing. I’m terms of stands, I have a lowery stand that I use everyday. It’s quite pricey and I don’t really recommend it. I used to have a stitch smart stand which I got from Amazon - I loved it and wished I didn’t give it to my mom.
What are you using to mark the counts on the fabric? Looks like a ball point pen? Do the marks get fully covered by your stitching? Never marked my fabric before but I think I need to try this!!
I use Threaders Erasable Fabric Pens. They are erasable through heat - after I’m done with my project, I blow dry (because I don’t own an iron 😅) and the markings disappear. I’ve heard some people say they’ve had some instances where the marks re-appear but I’m not sure if it’s from the same brand of pen. I haven’t had any issues with mine so far and have used it for the past 5 years
Wow this kit looks really well designed and organized and it has Anchor flosses?! Cool!! Ok, definitely need to buy one of these kits. Have you stitched any by Letistich yet?
Hi! I haven’t finished any yet but have two Letistitch WIP’s. This one and another one called “Fairytale house”. They are both super nice! I’m a huge dimensions fan but I actually think Letistitch is superior in quality
Hi! The ones on the video are called “spool huggers”. The clips I use to tie which are not in the video are called “magnetic cable ties” which can also double as a needle minder 😊
It depends on the size, I also have a rotation so I don’t stitch on the same design one at a time. But stitching says, I average 60-90 days on a medium/large project
Wonderful video! Seeing the set-up, is so much better than just hearing about it. Thank you so much for sharing!!

I know you said you got the clips to hold your fabric from Amazon. What are they called? I definitely need to get some!
And great vid! Thanks!!

How long does it take you to finish a cross stitching project?
It depends on the size, I also have a rotation so I don’t stitch on the same design one at a time. But stitching says, I average 60-90 days on a medium/large project
Hi there! Where did you get the square hoops?
Amazon has them! They are called Nurge hoops
Thank you!!! How do you like using them? Do they stay tight?
I like them a lot. I actually have all the colors in nos 2-4 😂 they stay tight for me and I have no issues
