First time posting here. I've finally learned how to navigate Lemmy a little better and have landed here. Thank you for having me.

I used to cross stitch as a kid, and I've picked it up again 25 years later. I'm really enjoying it now that I can count better 😂

Here's a project I picked up last year. I bought it online on Etsy at https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/794868860/foxes-in-the-leaves-easy-cross-stitch?ref=

Slowly making my way through it and enjoying every minute.

Edit: Have never attached a photo before, so I've attached it in to URL box.

Thank you! I was a lurker on FB, and I was surprised at how many people were quite vocal negatively about back stitching. For me, it signifies the final touch so it is pretty satisfying regardless of how difficult it might be.
