Good Wednesday morning everyone. I can't believe it's the middle of the week already and time is moving way too fast lately. I want to take the opportunity this morning to express my appreciation for those who read this daily post, stop by to comment, or just show up from day to day. Time has moved quickly as I have been with ECS for 10 years now, the length of time I've been stitching. I've learned a lot on here from more experienced stitchers as my own stitching journey continues. What are some things you have learned? For me, I've learned how fabrics can make a difference with a project and I have to admit I love fabric. I've learned that I love stitching on Lugana. Those are my thoughts this Wednesday morning. Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Today is Wednesday ………………………………………….Good Morning, MJ 💕

Why is there no list of supplies

Today is Tuesday …………………………………………. Good Morning, MJ 💕

Good Tuesday morning everyone. Not much on the agenda today, but am stitching on "The Mermaid and the Ship". We've been on 1950's monster movie binge lately and it's amazing how you can relate some of the themes to today. Praying for the people of France. Have a terrific Tuesday!

I am trying to complete an old project, Pumpkin Stew sampler that uses Mill Hill Halloween ceramic buttons. Will the Be a Witch Button Pack work? What are the buttons made of?
Thanks for your assistance,
Bethany

Hi there Fellow Stitchers!
I had two bad falls at home last year, resulting in some strange memory problems and another fall this year landing on my fanny and breaking my back. I am still stitching and am sometimes so frustrated that I get upset and have to stop, which doesn't help.

It's more or less like going back in time. Both my grandmother and my great-grandma did every kind of stitching one could imagine. As a pre-schooler, I was allowed to play with some of the floss making leashes for my toys. Now, at 80, I feel somewhat
inadequate as I even have problems with silly stuff. Having given things away over the years, I cannot recall how to recalculate sizes, like converting a pattern from 14 count to 16 count. I am pretty sure that the fabric size is less, but I no longer recall how to figure it out. Can anyone tell me ow to figure this out? Also, how to figure out smaller to larger count.

I am relearning almost everything, it seems, but am better than I was months ago.
Thanks for your help!
