Over the past two days I have been getting stuck into working on the stitch dictionary app. In that time I have gotten 11 stitches done. Yep, just 11. It takes a long and boring time to do these. Considering there are about 170 stitches in the book, you can see that this is still going to take a while yet.<\/p>\n
If I had minions, it could be done so much more quickly, but I don’t have minions – Vetty Creations is just me. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
However, the way I am preferring to look at it (I have to encourage myself somehow!) is that that’s 11 stitches that weren’t done before, and 11 I won’t have to do again…<\/p>\n
One of the main problems with working on the app is that it is so boring that it gives me nothing to write about here on White Threads. All I do is cut and paste all the text from each stitch into my database. Then I go through and open up all the image files for that stitch in Photoshop, and resave them, neatly cropped and nicely aligned with each other, as jpgs or pngs. See, it isn’t very exciting, is it?<\/p>\n
I just have to keep chipping away…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
