GNTLGNT, are you actually speechless? your post is blank.

Here's a picture I put on a baby blanket. I call it Beary Potter. I entered it into a contest....didn't win, but I came in second. (Hopefully this link works.)

How did you do that?

How did who do what? I don't know how he posted nothing.

Or do you mean how did I stitch on a blanket? I used waste-canvas, also called tear-away cloth.

Ok, I could not resist googling it and found this new product of water soluble waste canvas. I need better self control at googling!!

That cross stitch is gorgeous! And so time consuming. Loved the video too, thanks for that.

Wow nice - a fellow stitcher. You do beautiful work!

I used the old fashioned waste canvas. I've never heard of that water soluble in the video. I think I'll pick some up because I want to make a sweat shirt for myself. The old fashioned waste canvas works really well, but most of the pictures I stitch say not to stitch on waste canvas. (Beary Potter said not to.). The reason is, when you are pulling the threads out they can break. And quarter stitches are very difficult to do.

Some advice for anyone that tries using it (the original stuff), when you are pulling out the threads the instructions say to wet it first. But I find what works best is to put water into a spray bottle and just dampen it thoroughly. And if you are allergic to corn do NOT use the old fashioned waste canvas, corn starch is used to stiffen it.
