It looks fantastic! Maybe you would enjoy it more if you start with something bigger on aida cloth? This looks kind of small and fiddly for a first attempt at cross stitch lol you did a great job though!

It's starting to look better the more I get done, I think I just got worked up before there was enough there to see the difference lol

This is going pretty well except I think I picked two shades of orange that are too similar. This pattern doesn't actually tell you which colors to use it just says it's designed to use whatever you already have lol

I decided to take a break and try something a little easier with this Maneki Neko pattern!

This one may be done now lol I'm still trying to decide if it needs a border before I wash and iron it for framing

The trails are all still closed for repairs after the hurricane but I still managed to get a few pictures lol

I thought I would be done by now, but I'm still slogging through this blue spotlight with like 6 different shades of blue in it lol

I'll get there soon though!

Not much of an update as I've mostly been filling in the bottom section, which has like 8 different versions of blue in it lol but I'm making decent progress! I'm hoping to be done with this one in about another week!

For anyone who has never heard of this, The Waffle House Index is a real thing used to gauge the severity of weather events!

They're also comparing the ratings of a single episode of Penguin to the entire first season of The Acolyte

I can't call this one fully original because I did use the Bing Image Creator AI website to generate the initial artwork.

After generating the image I converted it into a pattern on Floss Cross

If you hadn't already guessed, this is a Prince pattern! I'm making it as a custom piece for a friend, but it's also a good chance to test out a homemade pattern before I try a bigger completely original pattern after this!

Note that everyone mentioned in the article only regretted their statements once they realized the kid was disabled... Maybe just don't make fun of people's kids in general? Is that so difficult? WTF do his kids have to do with his political campaign???

This is a factually accurate meme lol! He ratted out Jesse "The Body" Ventura for trying to start a wrestlers union way back in 1986!

People forget that Trump wasn't a Republican until like 2012. The only reason he ran Republican was that someone convinced him that was the only way he'd ever win. Remember, winning at all costs is literally the only thing Donald Trump cares about.

Get ready, if the Project 2025 freaks get their way this kind of shit will happen nationwide as a full ban on pornography across the board. It's just another way the party that claims they "stand for freedom" will turn this country into a puritanical dictatorship one small step at a time

This reminds me of that guy who declared he wouldn't be listening to Rage Against the Machine anymore because Tom Morello had become too political πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

He did prove one thing, and that is that rich people legitimately think anyone who has less money than they do is just lazy. Even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary and his own failure the article seems to imply that he still thinks that is the case lol guess he didn't learn anything at all...

I'd take the $10 mil. Childhood seems like it would be a lot less fun if I had to go through it again but now with the jaded mind of a middle aged man.

I can for sure find a way to have fun with ten million dollars though πŸ˜‰

I hate to keep bringing this up, but I don't think it counts as a "shit post" if you're just posting an actual real thing that you found in the news

I'm pretty sure that's just a regular news post
