THIS IS SO AWESOME! I just downloaded Pattern Keeper on my phone and I loved it so much, I bought a Android tablet so I can see a larger screen. I make my own charted designs and this works well on an unknown chart application. I'm impressed.

I noticed on your starts that you threaded a floss down to the back side and off to the side and then came back up and your 10 by 10 square on where you're starting. Would you please explain your thinking on where you go down to the back side because I noticed that you went down sometimes on the right side of the 10 by 10 and on other times the bottom side of the 10 by 10 but I couldn't make any sense on your choice of where you did this

When you stitch in 10x10 grids and park on right or below, does this help eliminate grid lines? I started stitching in diagnols because I was getting grid lines while stitching 10x10 grids.

I do think that parking to the right and below will help me avoid grid lines. I had another pattern where I was doing it in blocks and parking below, and I thought I was noticing a column line going down the edge of the block. I think by carrying the thread behind the block, it will have the same effect as if I was stitching it cross country - so there's no hard line between the two blocks. But I'll keep stitching in this way and if I start to notice any lines I'll definitely share that and probably switch to a diagonal, too.

Thank you very much 😊

Sometimes you use loop start and other times you start your thread from the the right, if that because you have to short of a thread to pin stitch?

Yes, when I don't loop start it's because I'm using 2 separate strands of thread that I had cut off and saved from another project. I probably just did 1 or 2 stitches with them and so I thought they were too long to just toss away and too short to loop.

I really love the way you explain everything so well 😊 I have one question, when you start your thread with the knot from the right. Do you cut the knot off when you weave over the thread on the back?

Yes, correct. I’ll cut it after I stitch over.

Hi What is this pattern called

🙋🙋🙋

Is there a reason why you have gone back to using a frame rather than stitching in hand?

It was just easier to film in the frame because I kept getting stitching off-camera and having to undo stitches and refilm. It was a little ridiculous how many takes it took before I decided to just put it in a frame and keep it in one place. But my usual non-filming stitching is still in hand with the fabric all bunched up and casually draped like a blanket on my lap! 😊

Still need to explain what you're doing as you work..I have to stop the video and try to figure out where you parked and why.

Thanks for the comment. I realized looking back that I definitely could explain things better. I might film an updated video where I do a better job explaining.
