Re: 22 count

hiya, i like both, harganger does soften up, especially if you wash it before use. i love oslo, is very soft, the only downside is that certainly when using two over one, it the fabric can bunch up and the holes become harder to find. but you can sort it out. i love it for HAEDs and other full cover...

Re: OH Heck!! Away AGAIN!!! And I'm BAAAAAACK!!! Still Rant

no advice but lots of sympathy and hugs! getting Power of attorney in nice and early is very important as you have found, otherwise its even more frustrating and infuriating.

best of luck, nice bit of luck and kindness with the bed and breakfast!

Re: Half cross stitch?

and i tend to do two threequarter stitches in the square unless it would be way too bulky (so 20 count and above) but working on 14-18 or 28-36 ill use two.

and then the back stitch goes over the top.

whatever you prefer really!
