Does this come with everything needed (floss)?

Good Monday morning of the new week. Still too darn hot, but I've gotten a lot of stitching accomplished on the mermaid. In the middle of the month I'll switch back over to the rock and roll sampler. Tonight we're going to try some of our new meat market's bratwurst and hope they're good. I haven't had a bratwurst in years, but these looked pretty good. Not much planned today and hope everyone has a lovely week.

hi everyone. i have been stitching for 35 years or more and have stitched a lot of the bigger and complicated patterns as well as bookmarks etc. i just finished a pattern by rogue stitchery called book lover and it was a challenge with a whole lot of quarter stitches. quite challenging. however when i started a patten called balloons i finally gave up. so many quarter stitches and the pattern was hard to read. the centering stitch was way off and the pattern was to be read left to right but the symbols were up and down. i am filing this pattern and will not buy their patterns again. someone else may find them delightful but i didn't.

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

Good Sunday morning everyone. Beautiful full Sturgeon moon! Our zucchini must have heard me because now we have three! The tomatoes -- not so good. The heat wave continues and fall can't get here soon enough. Today will be a stitching day and listening to music. Hope everyone has a relaxing and peaceful Sunday!

How do you finish the back side of the bookmark, where all the
threads are. I'm making one on 14 count fabric and want to
try another one on the perforated plastic type material.

What are these called so that I can order some

Need some input from all of you. A cross stitch I want to do calls for all silk threads. The designer lists the DMC also, however she states the finished project won’t look anywhere near as good as the silk threads. So, has anyone done a pattern with only the silk floss? Did you like the floss and the project when completed? Is the silk floss worth the money? Is it difficult to work with? Thanks everyone for any and all input🥰

But you God, see the trouble of the afflicted; you consider their grief and take it in hand. The victims commit themselves to you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
Psalm 10:14 NIV

Prayer: Father in heaven, when evil is prevalent, when life is difficult, and hope is hard to find among the mess, I know that our Lord is still on His throne and in charge of all.
