I’m working on this new piece on black aida and I’m making pretty slow progress just because it’s difficult to see what I’m doing.

I’m sitting by a pretty bright light and working over a brightly colored tray and that’s helping some, but I wondered if anyone knew any other tricks to working with darker fabrics?

The only thing I’m finding online is people saying to use a light box, but I really don’t want to invest that much if I can help it

    I don’t stitch, but could you put a white grid down that can be unstitched after?

      That would definitely make it easier to keep track of where you are… I’ve never tried using a grid before, I’ll have to try it!
