24HOCS starting point!

I've decided to work on my full coverage project for #24HoursOfCrossStitch, as this one hasn't had any love for a couple weeks so it'll feel good to get some progress.

Of course, at 2 over 1 on 28ct fabric, 24 hours is often less visible progress than you might think ๐Ÿ˜…

The pattern is "Autumn Stories" from Paine Free Crafts, and for reference I'm currently at 25.26% complete!

Good luck to anyone else taking part. I believe in you!

Good luck with your challenge! I'd love to see a progress pic next time you have it off the snaps, it looks beautiful.

Also, 28ct? Do you use a magnifier or anything?

I'll definitely be taking it out for pics after the 24 hours is over, if nothing else than for a bit of motivation!

And actually no I don't use a magnifier but definitely should. In fact, I'm gonna go order one now instead of just saying this repeatedly and then never doing it.
