What do you do on a long road trip when you're a passenger? I decided to take up cross stitching which I haven't done in a very, very long time. I tried taking a photo each day of my progress but I did miss one day during our travels. This took me a total of 41 days to complete. Now I just need to decide what I'm going to do with it! Pattern is by Alice Alan and purchased at AICrossStitch on Etsy. 14 count Aida cloth using DMC floss 21,861 stitches
Progress has been made this weekend!!
Look at Miss Pepper back there, such a good girl!
So to achieve this layout I cut the sashing strips 1 1/2". For the Title block I needed to add to either end to make up for the additional inch in between the blocks above and below it. Also for Owlbert and Ghost I cut them each down to 5 1/2" (including seam allowance). I actually like them better without all the extra fabric around them.
Now to figure out the backing. To piece or not to piece that is the question!
