It looks very cool! How long did it take? Were the materials expensive?
Thanks! This one was not expensive at all! The pattern was on Etsy for $4.99! It took me about a week to finish just kind of working on it when I had time!
I already had enough left over Aida cloth from a previous project and most of the floss I needed so I really only had to spend like $2 for the few colors I didn't already have lol
One way I've found to use the floss I already have instead of buying new floss for every project is this DMC substitution website . It's fantastic if you need a specific color that you're only going to use for like 20 stitches and you don't want to have to buy more floss for that one little part!
