Today’s “Stitching Blogger’s Question” was suggested by Cathy and is:
Do you mark or hi-lite your patterns or can you follow them without any markings? Do you make copies to mark up, or do you mark originals?
Yes, I mark large patterns because I work on them infrequently and tend to lose my place. I now mark copies only. I learned this lesson the hard way. When I was much younger, I used a pencil to mark up the chart for my first largish design and ended up ruining other charts in the book, not to mention obliterating the original. Duh! I don’t do this anymore… 😉
That Frost Fairy you stitched a while back is gorgeous! (((hugs))) and many thanks for your emails yesterday! 🙂
I cannot imagine stitching without copies. Especially using the enlargine feature. Life before copy machines and scanners must have been crazy! Can you imagine? I remember my Mom enlarging a pattern by HAND. She would pencil in a grid of lines over a picture & then enlarge it on a sketch pad.
