Can no longer find the pattern that I got this from, but here’s a link to the series on amazon

Super duper French knot Caribbean!
Also, can you tell I'm Canadian? 😂
This is a Joy Sunday cross stitch kit (though the kit just came with grey, I'm planning to fill out in colour like a risk board, with lines for trips we've taken!)

This is a kit from amazon sold by eGoodn, called “little mouse and dandelion”

Thanks! It's my biggest project to date.
Here is the link!

It was actually pre stamped, but the cloth it came with was so bad, I thought I would use the opportunity to convert to 20ct Aida.
I have a few stamped cross stitch kits, and I LOVE them! Just haven't gotten to finishing them because I'm easily distracted...anyway. Stamped cross stitching is super nice because, as long as it's properly printed, there's no need for a complex pattern or counting. You can turn on Netflix, sit back and stitch the day away without having to constantly check that every stitch is right.
The three kits I've gotten (Tree, Wolf, and Garden) are surprisingly good quality, and all are printed perfectly. Not super high quality, but good enough for a gift or hobby project.
Also, you are able to wash them! The ink used to color the aida is water soluble. There should be instructions in the directions that came with it on the best way to get the pattern off. I can't remember exactly how (and my easily distracted butt hasn't finished the three I'm working on...) but I do remember seeing it explained in the instructions. If not, Google is a wonderful thing. Good luck with your tree!
Kit from Amazon here. Got the frame from a thrift store for 2 dollars, but had to get a mat custom cut at the frame store because my dad's mat cutter broke while cutting me one. I redid all the backing and hanging hardware myself though! It's so hard to frame odd size items on a budget so finally finishing that part made my day.

Started this a while back, but finally finished it earlier this year for my sister's baby shower. It's the Woodland Baby Stamped Cross Stitch Crib Cover Kit by Bucilla. I did end up changing some of the colors as I went to better fit in with what she liked.
Ahh you poor thing. 😔 I sense the feeling of being trapped, it's suffocating.
Have you tried needle point?
You don't have to be creative as you follow a pattern that's already established. You can find really cute ones that target something you really like.
Get better soon. (hugz)
Example of a beginner needlepoint, it comes with the pattern printed on the mesh you just find the color and put it in. Kinda like a paint by number but with a needle and yarn...

Yes! When I first started I found Peacock & Fig on YouTube and I learned so much there! The biggest thing I learned was looping the thread in the beginning of a line so you don't have a bunch of thread sticking out that you have to stitch over and how to hide the end knot of a line so that the back of your pattern looks as smooth as the front! Heres what im working on currently:

Feel free to ask me anything if you need help or get stuck!
I know the stamped version is on Amazon. I'm sure there's a counted version too. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B073WC677R/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_2?smid=A13Z0MYYYNDU34&psc=1&th=1

Is this the pattern? Trying to track it down so I can make one for myself https://www.amazon.com/DOMEI-Stamped-Stitch-Flower-Magpie/dp/B00OPQF6UE
Me too! (I’m 32 and picked it up after my mom died last year and I found a bunch of her old supplies.) Just accidentally started my first big project. Ordered it thinking it’d be a 5x7 or something, turns out it’s poster sized. May we both make it through these projects alive! 😂
https://www.amazon.ca/Tobin-Balloon-Stamped-Stitch-43-Inch/dp/B00GVZ6CVY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1473126414&sr=8-2&keywords=stamped+cross+stitch+kit Here's an example of the first type.
I got mine in a RedditGifts Exchange, it came with all the floss too, but I know there's a huge variety on AliExpress and Amazon.
It is this kit http://www.amazon.com/BUCILLA-46186-Woodland-Stamped-34-Inch/dp/B00RA2F65K so instead of the holey Aida cloth, it is stamped onto the fabric. I am thinking of doing batting in between though just because I'm not exactly a confident cross stitcher and I do knot my thread on the back, which is supposed to be a no no. But especially with it being a baby item that's going to be washed, I'm not comfortable with just weaving my ends in. So I think you might be able to feel the designs and knots through the backing fabric if I just do the two layers.
Edit: cute blanket! I think it might do that, since each design on the blanket is blocked in, I could just stitch around the block and that should be enough to hold it
What about a cross stitch fox
Edit: fixed the formatting 😂
