How to Cross Stitch on Paper : Make a Greeting Card or Small Artwork

Cross stitching is usually done on a type of fabric that has a grid woven right into in, but since paper doesn't have such a grid, the first part of the video demonstrates two different ways of giving yourself one. #grannycore #cottagecore If you need more description on the supplies and techniques, please see these related blog posts - Using graph paper to create the grid : https://www.loulou.to/making-things/h...
