I finished at the end of May, but my last prayer cloth post brought so much stress because of abuse from , I decided I'm not going to post my finished prayer cloths to groups anymore.

So, I'm only going to post my prayer cloths to my own page. If anyone is interested in my Patterns and finishing technique for , my shop is at ko-fi.com/stitch26 .

@breadsmasher I love how love 2 attack my & the faith of others. aren't the ONLY answer 2 , but they DO help those with faith. The itself doesn't say 2 rely on them alone; it talks about Paul (a man of faith) & Luke (a doctor with faith) working together 2 heal the sick. tailors each person's healing 2 their level of faith. If you choose 2 only trust doctors, that's your choice. But I pity you for the disadvantage that puts you in.

The only thing that cures homelessness is housing.

@adamconover I am really glad you posted this conversation! My husband & I have experienced varying degrees of homelessness for several years. We've been primarily "sheltered homeless" (in a shelter) or "travelers" (living in a hotel/other temporary living space that we pay for). We've been blessed to only be street homeless for 1 night & most of the next day. Good thing is, "Housing First" is getting more attention! Yay! Bad thing: Not the resources for travelers as street/sheltered homeless.

Today I found out that both of my applications to test a pattern were accepted... after many times applying for things and not being accepted...

So I guess all my other WIP will be on hold and until June 20th I will be knitting both a pair of colourwork unicorn mittens and a cardigan... See images.

Doable, right? Maybe I should book a holiday from my two little kids and my work... haha.

Wish me luck!

@Hobbes_Dent Sorry about that. I've copied the link from my YouTube and going to try to add it to my post in case there's any more problems with it.

This design is now widely available! You can find it at your local needlework shop and in my shops if yo prefer a PDF!

I stitched this on Wichelt polka dot fabric, which makes it even more cottagecore.

Hello little friend! This ladybug investigated my giant swiss chard quite thoroughly before settling in a leaf curl. @gardening

@effika @gardening It's not really science-related, but look up "The Legend of the Ladybug" to find out where Ladybugs got their layman's name. It's pretty cool! 😄 🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞

Does anyone here have any tips for making cross stitching easier on hand joints?

I have very painful joints and expect to get formally diagnosed with arthritis tomorrow. I love cross stitching, but my god does it make my hands hurt. I also work in IT, so my hands are in use all day for my job. I want to be able to craft after work to relax, but my hands just hurt and cramp immediately when I try to work on a...

@KittenBiscuits @LaunchesKayaks I use my compression gloves all the time while stitching. They help reduce fatigue and swelling...and they make my hands look fancier while I'm working! 😉

Okay...so...TECHNICALLY this was finished while it was still MY Friday, so I'm posting it today. #PraiseHim #PrayerCloth is cross stitched on the front panel. Outlines that would normally be #Backstitch are #CrossQuilted to make the project double-sided. I should be able to finish the second copy tonight. After that, I'll be correcting errors and posting the proofed pattern to Ko-Fi. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll tell you when free digital & paid printable versions are available.

Finally finished on the #CrossStitch portion of the two copies of #PraiseHim #PrayerCloth! WHOO HOO!!! Now the easy part-- #CrossQuilting! As you can see, I already started around the central circle on the Sun, so the backs aren't very impressive yet. When I'm finished, I'll be correcting the pattern, posting it to Ko-Fi (emailing an updated, CORRECTED copy to those with the unproofed version), and then on to much a much less complicated project! #ThankGod for #LightAtTheEndOfTheTunnel! 😄🥳🎉🥳🎉

Haven't posted progress pics in a while, so I thought I'd share. This is two copies of . Proofing the pattern as I go, since I was an idiot & allowed excitement to override common sense prior to posting it on Ko-Fi.

For the (currently) unproofed pattern posted to Ko-Fi, the version is here: https://ko-fi.com/s/3ce465a10a

And you can find the Paid version here: https://ko-fi.com/s/de5b8faf0f
