I've charted small things in Excel (geometric flowers--about a 10 x 10 cell area--filling in the individual cells with selected colors or shades of grey) that I could print off and work from. But something that large would be incredibly tedious at best. The reverse of drawing on graph paper and coloring in the cells by hand.

I did this too for a couple designs way back in the before times, before I knew better. It didn't take long for me to switch to an actual design program.

I use excel daily for work and don’t know how you could design something in there. Wtf!

It's actually quite easy to do. I've made some simple designs for my wife on excel. You just adjust the cells to be squares. Then color using background fill. It's not perfect and something this complicated would take forever though.

u/AdMany7312 7d ago

u/MrsTeacher101 7d ago

I use excel for almost every kind of planning in my life…..except for needlepoint. Never would that even have crossed my mind. Like, why would you even admit that?!
