No, I haven't finished my existing WIPs, I'm crocheting a tee shirt out of yarn I dyed myself instead. Thank you very much. 🧶

I backed it with felt and hung it in the hoop 🤩

The first time I ever interacted with her in the game, i was obsessed and married her. She's comforting. It felt deserved that she was the first NPC I've stitched.

Guys, I'm really, really happy with how the Stardew Valley cross stitch is turning out!

Maybe find a different design that would allow you to use the squares in an orientation that matches what you have! There are a lot of Granny square bag patterns out there! Make your own up! Crochet is the best for that
