YMCA Cross Stitch Night

 

Tuesday, March 7, 2023 was Cross Stitch night. I am used to embroidery-type cross stitching, but this was actual COUNTED cross stitch and I was so excited, because it has always looked so FRICKING hard to do. 

This was the pattern I chose - an easy little fish. I used different colors than the ones shown. 

This was the actual pattern.

They gave us this to start - the hoop and the material. The thread was the colors I chose to use. 

I didn't get any pictures of my work while I was doing it - I was concentrating too hard. I messed up a few stitches, but for my first time - I am very pleased. I am going to make some more fish so he isn't lonely.
