ABOUT ME:
Thanks for visiting my channel, I hope you enjoyed the video! I founded Caterpillar Cross Stitch in 2015 when I tried desperately for months to find a modern baby sampler my mum could stitch for new baby Felicity that would fit in with her simple, contemporary nursery. I love cross stitch, running, baking fruit cakes, drinking gin, eating salted caramel ice cream and most crafts!
See you soon and happy stitching! Sally x - Jak na to + styl

I’m doing a stamped cross stitch pattern. How do you protect the stitched area as you stitch across a large pattern? Since the bottom usually has the symbols for the color of threads, I guess I should start at the top and maybe roll it as I stitch downward. No one seems to know.
I need some advice. I started a project two years ago, maybe even longer than that. I had to put it away as my life became too busy. I recently picked it up again and noticed a distinct difference in the shade of black that I used then and I don't know how to obscure it. The recent black floss is more shiny and deeper than the one I started the first part with. Other than frogging the first part (oh nooo) what can I do? Its a big picture and i just want to finish it. Please tell me how I can solve this problem? Thank you so much!

I would never eat or drink near my project and hands are always clean when handling 😳
yea I did enjoy your video.. like... who would've thought. already subbed
Glad you enjoyed!
I have been looking for a channel too help . How can I stop a gap between two cross stitch . Now you have answered my Question , what is the best way too start a new thread and specially if you have too changed different colour but on the line same line. Thank you answered my first question
Hi, we have a great video on different ways to start your cross stitch! :)
👏👏
I have a question - is there anything I can do if I didn't leave enough fabric on the edges for finishing?
That really depends on how little room is left. Some people cut some aida and sew it on to give it a false edge :)
When following a pattern do you complete one colour at a time or keep changing colour as you follow the pattern?
I'd say this is personal preference. You can do it either way :)
amazing video but i couldnt understand the size part
Which part? We'd love to help!
But what if you are lift hand
Being left handed doesn’t make any difference in my experience (I’m a lefty and my nana taught me to cross stitch and she’s right handed)
