im glad im not alone in not doing cross country. when i misplaced one diamond on a grid and did not realize till 2 lines later and unlike cross stitch where you can cut the stitch i had to pop off the diamond slowly if not their flying little projectiles. so what i learned slow and easy wins the race. im happy with getting one grid at a time. its the little accomplishments that make it worthwhile.

You've been busy and it's looking great!

This is looking great. I've seen diamond painting on aliexpress and have thought about getting a kit to try, but it never really clicked in my head that you could just get the gems in any DMC color and do your own pattern. Do you know how long it takes you to do a 10x10 square/grid? I'm just curious how the speed compares to cross stitching.

i feel like it takes me at 10-20 minutes for 10 x 10 grid.
