This one is stitched on perforated paper (supplied in the kit). The new device I'm using here is a double-pointed embroidery needle, allowing stitching to be done without turning the needle under the fabric. That seems to go quicker, and results in less twisting of the thread. Very little confetti here, which helps with speed.

Stitching this one with DMC thread, 2 over 2 cross stitch, on a 36 count Blue-Grey Linen. Using a Scroll Frame and stand from Hobby Lobby, which is working out okay, except for the need to unmount the frame from the stand in order to tie off threads. This one has some confetti, so tie-offs are frequent, and this is a burden. Purchased another stand that will take a Qsnap, and allows a 360 degree rotation, so I May consider swapping this one onto a q-snap and using that stand instead.
About done with the first of 9 pages on this one.
