Hi everyone! First off thank you all for sharing your amazing work here. I’ve been popping in here for a few weeks now and I’m happy to say you’re all the reason today I’ve got my first kit. I’d tried cross-stitching (very basic stuff though) as a kid but now I can feel the calling is strong. I’m very excited to share my attempts with you soon!
What are some useful tips you’ve learned that a beginner like me should know? Things to avoid or look for?
Are there any apps that you find useful and that are specific for cross-stitching?
I’ll appreciate all the help. Thank you!
If it’s available to you try to use DMC branded floss. I normally don’t care about brands, but when I started stitching last year the first thing I did was buy a big multi pack of generic floss that caused me to get quickly get very frustrated lol! The DMC stuff glides better and doesn’t fluff up so much
