GOOD MORNING - What's on your mind FRIDAY
Good Friday morning everyone. The cool down continues and what luxury to sleep with windows open. Today I'm starting on "Octopus Garden". I love starting a new project. I hope the fall issue of JCS is better than the Halloween issue. Not much else going on and wish you all a fabulous Friday!

Cross stitching pattern from photo
I have a pattern made from a photo (people). Should I use 11 ct or 14 ct fabric and how many strands of thread? 220x134 is the stitch count.

🧵✨ Thread Talk Time! ✨🧵
We know there are SO many amazing (and newer!) threads out there these days, and we want your help! 💬
If you could wave a magic needle and add any thread brand to our website, what would it be? NPI Silks? Valdani? Creek Colours? Colours & Cotton? Or maybe a hidden gem we haven’t discovered yet? 👀
Drop your thread wish list in the comments! 🎨💌 (Threads only, please—we’re not diving into fabrics just yet 😉)
Thank you everyone! ~Kristi @ ECS

magnifying help
seeing at 90 is a bit difficult and I need a magnifying tool of some sort. Checked out the one with a tube around your neck but it is too heavy is there any others that can hang on your neck ? Or whatever you can suggest thank you

New to the Forum
Hi all, my name is Steve and I live in Herefordshire, UK. Personally I do not cross stitch myself, although I do create cross stitch patterns. I will not post any links to my patterns or try to advertise on this forum.
Just looking for inspiration and a chat.
Looking forward to chatting with you soon.
Steve

We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. Hebrews 2:1 NIV
I will be off the grid after today to spend vacation time with my husband. I will return on 7/22. If someone else wants to post in my absence, please do so. Sharon
