@inarticulatequilter Thank you again! This is just the second time I've embroidered something, and I only did cross stitch once, so don't expect me to do something super fancy, haha. I guess my main problem is my lack of patience. I see something that I like (a technique, colour palette, etc.), have an idea, but don't want to put my all into perfecting it. So I then just try to make it work somehow. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. This time it did.
