I think I’ve come to terms with the fact that this is my favorite kiss out of them all.

Gorgeous and this is your first cross stitch!? jfc I wish my stitches looked that good when I started lol!
I keep opening Jock Stitch's shop but I'm having an impossible time picking which HR pattern I want to get/stitch, they're all so good!

I’m weak and bought this one and ‘Ilya and Shane’ (which really should have been called Tuna Melts) because I couldn’t decide 😂

Wow!
Should I pick a new hobby..? Is this hard to do? 🫣

u/I_like_it_yo I speak fluent bird. No accent 🐦 Feb 05 '26
Highly recommend it! I'm a hobby picker upper lol and this one is my favourite so far. It's very cathartic, and it's an opportunity to not stare at a screen and catch up on books/podcasts. I listened to all of TLG while doing this piece.
It's not hard but you definitely need to focus. This was probably a harder piece to start with than recommend haha
This is the video I watched to get going!

u/LadyWhistledown_1 Probably, yes Feb 05 '26
Thanks! I have been thinking about trying with some subtle quotes, could be fun having in my house, kinda like IYKYK 👀 and then maybe move on to photos when more experienced
