Summer Story
Pickle-Barrel Designs
18 Count Sand Aida by Zweigart
2 x 1 Full Cross
This is my New Start for this Month - October 2025 - I try to start a new project once a month. I just love this Chart. The only thing I don't like about Pickle Barrel Designs Charts is that some of the Symbol is hard to read. Thank Goodness it is a small designs. I am able to read the symbols despite being hard to actually see the symbols. I do the Hard To Read Symbols first. Than I will do the rest of it after that.
I am beginning to use Floss Tags - Floss Drops for all of my Projects. Now with this in mind - I only cut a 6 strand and put it on the Floss Tag - I do that with each color that I use. I do not put a full Skein of Thread on the Floss Tag. To me that is a waste of thread. This way I can keep my Master Set and still be able to work on all of my projects that I want to work on. All I need is to buy the Fabric and that is it. I use DMC - I have been using DMC since I was 13 years old. I have a IPAD and next month I am going to subscribe to Mark Up R XP. I had it once before. I do love using it and it is so much easier to see the Symbols. I will always keep a paper working copy near me as well just in case.
It has been cold here in Northern Indiana during the day time and at night as well. On Saturday and Sunday we are suppose to have Severe Thunderstorms and Flooding along with it and very high winds. I won't be going anywhere this weekend.
It is 1:38 a.m. on this Friday. What can I say. I am a Night Owl...Ha!
I already have my New Start planned out for next month. I have the threads for it - Only 5 Colors for this Pattern. I just need to buy the Orange Fabric for it - 28 Count Orange Fabric by Fiber On A Whim. I forget the color name of the Fabric. I will be posting a picture of my New Start when I start it.
This is all for now....
Take Care & Happy Stitching
God Bless You All
Love & Prayers
