a single step

[yacoba]

Alright so things seem to be calming down a little for me now that I've stopped the medication. I was even able to get a very little bit of writing done today, not near enough, but it's a start.

And here, against my better judgment is a picture of the cross-stitch pattern I'm working on.

Is this the complete pattern?

If you fill it in, it will just be the same pattern only bigger, but that will of course take time. Explain the second option?

[yacoba]

No that's not the completed pattern, its only a portion of the top half.

Here's a picture of the pattern I'm working off of

Both options sound kind of difficult... if you fill in what you've done then your entire pattern is going to have to be twice as big, and take twice as much work. But I understand what you mean now about improvising. Hmmm.

(To be honest, I would start over. But again, that's up to you, whether you have enough thread, canvas, and time.)

[yacoba]

well if I start over I won't be reusing the thread I've already used or the canvas. I'll just go out and buy some more...[too much effort to remove the thread]

I've taken into consideration that the rest of the pattern would have to be made larger to accommodate what I've already done.

And the real downside to my life right now, is that I have all the time in the world to redo this if I choose too [I suppose most people wouldn't feel that way]
