#34 ~ How much space do 37 stitches take up?



Progress as at 26th February 2019

Finished Design Size 400 W by 584 H (16 W X 23-1/4 H inches on 25ct)

Chart Contains 89 Colours

Copyright Heaven and Earth Designs 2017 (Conni Togel 2017)

DMC Magic Count Evenweave 25 count (KatzXstitch)

Stitched on 36" rods for Millennium Frame and floor Stand (Needle Needs)



the answer is .... minute amount at 1 over 1 on 25 count.  

Heathfield Crafts came to the rescue, as usual, as the lovely Lisa was just unpacking a DMC order and came to talk to me with a box of 3840 in her hand.  I love the service and friendliness of that shop, it is a shame they don't have a website.

I took away three other colours from the list I had given her:  152; 3713 and 842.  Lisa has the rest on order for me, and I will take the whole lot in one go when they are all in.


I was just about to wind up this post, when I realised I hadn't updated the #50kxstitch challenge:-

  • 37 stitches (actually a few more but they were test ones which were frogged out).
  • 6,6710 cumulative stitches.
  • 42,374 left for the challenge.
  • 1 hour and 03 minutes.
  • 37 hours and 6 minutes cumulative time.
  • 25p in the cauldron.
  • £35.30 cumulative cauldron.
  • 5 unpaid stitches to carry forward.

I can now enjoy this unseasonal February afternoon (sunny and warm), keep calm and stitch ... stitch ... stitchin'.
