“It being a consideration” dude this is a fan subreddit, not the inner thoughts of the cast or RM

If you're wanting to do the epic pokemon cross stitch then do it! I'm planning on doing it for my next project and going one color at a time so that it's not so much of an investment up front, starting with black and then working my way down through what needs the most hanks to the least.

Also, be on the lookout for sales, 123stitch.com has them fairly often

As far as free patterns go, go to your local library! Mine is fairly small and it still has years of backlogged issues of cross stitch magazine both physically and digitally, you can make photocopies of the patterns to work from. Or, if you're willing to do more classic samplers and the like there are some great websites with vintage patterns (bookmarked on my pc, I can provide them if you're interested)

dmc.com also has some really pretty patterns available for free

But if you can't find anything free that you like, I'd suggest taking some time to save up. Do something smaller in the meantime, or something monochrome (one color) so that you only need to buy one hank at a time. Like the other commentor said, large patterns are an investment regardless of where you get the pattern. Floss is cheap but it adds up quickly, and aida is expensive for large cuts.

Girl, we can't help you if you don't actually answer questions

There is a no substitutions option when ordering from a store

He had a manic episode and was walking around I think Atlanta in just in his tighty whities

I live in a nice neighborhood in the second largest city in my state. Doesn’t mean the nearest Walmart isn’t almost 4 miles away or make me any more able to transport myself and my groceries to and from the store

Response to your edit: I always open mm then abandon my task while I’m picking what task I’m going to do. You can keep using the same mm tab, you just have to quickly open and close the new mm tab at the beginning of each task

Most drivers go by miles. I don’t drive anymore, but my rule was a dollar a mile

Good for you?

Some of us are disabled. Some of us live too far from a Walmart to be able to walk to do our shopping

He’s not dead

It’s too bulky. Two strands of embroidery floss are thinner than one strand of pearl cotton.

Stichless

Unfortunately, pearl cotton isn’t what you need for cross stitch. You need embroidery floss

The diamond side. I seal coasters with mod podge rather than regular sealer to help keep the diamonds in place

Stichless

I would stick it on and then use an exacto knife to cut off the excess cork

Yes, you should update it. No, you won’t get banned for updating your tax docs so long as your address is still in a country where handshake does business

This is why I have the no kids convo on the second date

When do you brush it?

There were twins for when she was a baby and then they were recast. This is a picture of all three actresses who played Lily

1) you literally said it’s unusual to pee multiple times a day

2) it doesn’t matter how much water I’m drinking, I go pee once an hour and there is nothing wrong with my kidneys. Might as well drink my gallon a day as recommended by my doctor

Stichless

You think you should only pee once a day??

Stichless

Did you know that you have the ability to put a trash can in the bathroom?

Stichless

Spread misinformation and then state that it doesn’t matter. Cool cool cool

I scrunch mine up before I start the project, it softens all that extra starch really well
