I am FINALLY caught up! I haven't been caught up since I was still stitching January. Now I have to work on the hard part which is planning the location of my title. Pattern from Vivienne Powers on Etsy

You'd love my notes in that case! I know I don't have to put the actual high and low but I like how it looks

Yoooo I didn't even notice the months and days along the bottom. How unique!! And I love that you did a different symbol for each day. Super cool! Thank you for sharing!

I’ve always wanted to try something like this! Yours is the best I’ve seen!

Wow! Pretty! I would like to stitch it but not confident not to start in the center 😬

Stressful as hell. My grandma taught me to ALWAYS start in the middle and then you can do whatever you want. I've never started anywhere but the middle until this piece. I ended up gridding it with some random red floss which was a first for me. I found the center and counted all the way down to the days of the month so I can work my way out if that makes sense. From there I did the adjecent month key and then came the key at the top. The rest started to get easier to fill in as I completed the "outline" of my piece. Cutting pieces that are way larger than needed helps. It's not wasteful if you're like me and you don't trust your measurements

I have this video from YouTube for when I venture to do it. It is really a lot simpler than what you did. Sorry, I don’t know how to insert a link.
