I always like to see how others work on full coverage. We work similar except I grid, can't count to save my life so this helps me a lot and I use the pin stitch a lot now. I also bought the attachment for the Lowery stand except I have to sew an extra piece on the top of my piece to reach the top area to stitch, so still using my hoop. tks for an informative video !

Thank you for showing your large coverage process! I am stitching a couple of HAED designs and my set up is similar except I do not use Good Reader. I highlight my completed stitches the old fashion way, on paper with a highlighter. I think I will take a look at Good Reader. I am in the process of changing the way I stitch from parking threads to a cross country stitch. My concern with cross country stitching is that sometimes I lose my way! Stitching a smaller portion of a page makes a lot more sense. Also I am looking forward to your demonstration of the Lowery stand accessory because I have one too and I have difficulty with that. This was a perfect video for me! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for sharing your method! I'm going to try stitching this way on my my Burlesque Zombie Portrait because I just get so overwhelmed with how to stitch her. I think going one section at a time and doing cross country in that area will help.

I thought I was breaking the rules of cross stitch, but glad to see I am on the right track! Thanks for sharing....I love your vids!

Hi! Jw what fabric did you choose on the HAED site for your cross stitch? I see they sell for the size I'm doing either easy count fabric or Aida. First time ordering so thanks for any help! Love your channel! And I am doing a mini design in 18 count if that helps.

I was wondering about your frame and where you got it-I really like to get one for myself thanks I love your work, I have never done parking never knew anything about it but I see a lot of people doing this. I guess you could say i do cross country stitching. But I'm a perfectionist and my back has to look as good as my front. Thanks keep up the great job.

I know you make the x's the same way with one cross always on top but do you make them the same way? Do you always start with the top left corner or the bottom left corner? I have noticed that it appears differently if you vary it.
@gingergerald
@gingergerald 6 жыл бұрын
I am not rigid about how I start and finish each leg. It all depends on how I approach each stitch. On the grand scheme of a large full coverage piece I do not see a difference in how the x’s are stitched

Hi Gerald, I really enjoyed your video on this. I looked this pattern up and it says it's 16 W X 19 H inches on 25ct but you did it on 28 ct. Could you please tell me how much bigger the finished piece will be on a larger count fabric?
@gingergerald
@gingergerald 5 жыл бұрын
It will actually be smaller because I am stitching more stitches per inch. Instead of 16x19 the stitched size will be 15x18. So not much different.

Hey Gerald! Watched for the first time this morning before work. I just purchased my first 28 count fabric and debating on what I want to stitch on it, or whether to stitch 1 over 1 or 2 over 2. I have always stitched on 14 count aida. Please tell me which method you are using on your Henry? Thank you so much for the video, you are very inspiring. FYI I bobbin my floss the same way. Glad to see that i am not alone!!!

Bit late here but it is known as haed ( heaven and earth designs) they produce patterns sorted by artist. They are generally really big e.g my current piece is 305 by 325 stitches and is classified as a mini. heavenandearthdesigns.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=160&zenid=7fa42e5f84927383a9f11b2c4b5a2da1

I also kit my thread like you do. I'm wondering though about Good Reader. Are you able to "save" the pattern with the highlight? I'm just wondering if at any time the highlight gets erased by accident OR if you accidently highlight something wrong can you erase it? Just wondering since I would love to use this but I'm clumsy sometimes with my marking of the patterns and I can see myself getting lost. Thanks for all of the videos. I love watching them.
