OMG I've been gone for months and totally forgot to update you guys on my square! I finished it a few months ago, so happy with the way it turned out. Not sure if I'll be doing another square or not with all the other projects that I've got on my plate right now but we'll see.

It looks great!

Between the long weekend and then being sick, I've been busy! My Story of Seasons block is done and I got started on my Mega Mall Story block (actually, I have more done on that, but I didn't take a pic yesterday :P )

Quick question :confused: Just measured up my aida, and it is far from perfect... I know we should add a row or 2 to make it 6 inch, but the 6 inch mark is falling halfway between rows. Would you prefer the stitched area to be slightly more than 6 inch, or slightly less?

I usually go for slightly more than 6 inches when that happens...good luck!

Update time for me!

Firehawke is correct. I would rather it be slightly more than slightly less.

I wish I had a Like or Love button for all your squares! They are looking amazing!!

It's been super fun working on these (and a much needed distraction)!

Thank you for your all your efforts!!!
