[Firehawke]

You have a ton done!
Love your animated gif!!!

I've been neglecting this recently - too much on to be able to do it. However, now that it's the summer holidays I've got some time to try and catch up...

I'm a little concerned that the bottom row isn't straight though. Any advice?

Edit: Hopefully the picture is a better size now. Apologies if it isn't!

[ezsebeth]

Love it!

I should really start working on mine again

Edit: How are you tackling the project? Page by page, colour by colour, Pokémon by Pokémon?

[smoni]

I'm taking it page by page. It's probably not the most efficient way of doing so, but it works for me.

I posted on the main topic already, but I ran into an issue (of my own making.) When I measured it (3 years ago!) I apparently was two inches too short in the width. I'm about a page in, and I'm just so frustrated with myself I can't even look at it. If there's nothing I can do to save it (any ideas? ) it's going in the bin and I'm starting over.

Oh noes Kala... That sucks!

I still love looking here for all of you still going at it, all at your own pace. And I remember my joyious feelings on finishing this... I hope you will all feel so fantastic soon!

possibly sewing an extra length of fabric along the short side? if you tack the extra piece down across the old fabric and use the cross stitches themselves to anchor it in place it should be fine (cross stitch through both pieces of fabric) otherwise I'd recommend starting over if you can face it x

Finally another update!

Progress has been slow. But I handed in my thesis today, so I should have some more time now to work on it.

Sorry for the messy strands. That's my version of parking my threads...

[Pyper]

Congrats on handing in the thesis Its a good/scary feeling when you finally submit them. (Mine was in about 2 months ago)

After a long hiatus I had another splurge and got quite a few pages done. While the frame is fantastic for preventing distortion it does tend to result in a lot of hunching, so this does tend to be worked on in obsessive spurts.
