Another week, and more work on the Super Mario Cross Stitch. I am working hard to get it finished, I hate doing white on white. I finished the white around the “tendo” part of the logo, still working on the “Nin”. I am hoping to have at least the white around the letters done by sunday, but I don’t know if I have the time.
I started using the Super Frame I bought last week, and even though it makes progress slower, the results are neater. The reason that it’s slower is that before I used the frame, I wouldn’t pull my needle to the back. This made things quicker, but not very neat. You only see this up close, so I never had a problem with it, but still, this is better.

Two days ago, on November 18th I ordered the “A mon seul desir” pattern from Scarlet Quince. Today I got the shipping notice, so I will be expecting the pattern next week. I have been preparing everything else I need to get started. Things I need to buy are fabric, thread, new needles, new scissors, some sort of frame, magnet board for keeping the pattern clear, etc. etc.
I promised myself, that when I was ready to start working on the white in my Super Mario Cross Stitch project I would order and start setting up the follow up project. Well, as can be seen from the week 15 post, I am already well on my way with white, the piece is almost finished, so it is time for a new project.
