This thread is coming back, in a big way. Hey guys! I just started cross-stitching, to have something to do while watching Let's Plays. Here's my first and second pieces.   The first one came from a kit that my dad gave me. The second is an edit of some fanart I got from a Facebook friend. Right now I'm working on a 12" by 12" piece of me and my best friend, shown below, along with my working station.   I use pic2pat.com to create patterns, but I'm definitely going to give cstitch a go. I'm also looking to try out other methods than cross-stitch, but that's in the future. For now, I'm happy with my little X's.

I haven't made that many, but they make good presents, overall. I'm a maverick, so I frame my projects behind glass.

Also, if you used a pattern, do tell where you got it!

I just cut some thin cardboard in the shape of the ring and push it into the back of the ring, trapping the cloth beneath.

Do you have an Etsy? I need that Hitachi bookmark in my life.

My parents are moving to an apartment next year. For Christmas I embroidered an engineering drawing of their place, and I'm pretty happy with it. This is my first time sewing on black cloth!

I removed it from the frame, ironed it, got rid of most of the little bits of stuff, and put it back, so now it looks much better! I usually put my embroideries behind glass, so they won't get as dusty. I don't work with texture and layers that much, so it looks good.
