This is a lot like how I stitch but I don’t stay as close to the diagonals. I find it helps to feel like I’m parking to keep things neat but also not forcing myself to only stitch one cross at a time.

Hi Gemma. Love the tutorial ! Ive started trying out this method also and quite liking it but wondering how far down you will go (on the left side) without fully completing the whole width of each of the rows above. And how long are your diagonals? Thanks for the tips.

Looking great. But I have a question : I see you are doing a part diagonaal and then in a row horizontal. Why? Ty

Where do you buy bolts of cross stitch fabric?

How far will you carry so you are not wasting a ton of thread?

Hi There-Since I can’t get answers from the developer, And you’re an avid PK user, and I’m getting ready to start my first piece in Pattern Keeper, I really need to understand something. I have a piece by Jan Hicks. Her center point on her paper pattern is correct. But Pattern Keeper is making the vertical center way off.(Horizontal center is correct.) Have you run into that before? I only know how to start in the center so this is messing with my brain.

I use pattern keeper also and love it! How do you get your color list to disappear and only show the color your using on the top? I can’t seem to figure that out. I click on the arrow on top and it just widens the chart showing no color at all. 🤷🏻‍♀️

B Good morning, just found your tutorial, how do you mark off parked and done stitch at the same time please

What do you do with your completed patterns? You store them or sell?

Can't see your work, you aren't describing what you are doing and why ("whatever makes the most sense to me. However it happens to work out.") means nothing to me, can't see the chart. Nice chat but I'm not learning a thing here.
