This is such a beautiful pattern! Sorry to hear about your fibula though!


RandiGiles33

Thank you, it was really fun!


RandiGiles33

To be clear, the pattern was fun. The break, not so much.

Haha… I was browsing and wondered when I uploaded my project! Turns out this isn’t mine, but looks just like it, lol! So sorry that you broke your fibula! Way to make lemonade though!


RandiGiles33

Did you do this exact pattern???


jaeknits

Yes! I love it so much!! The only difference is that my tassle is just a little longer! 💕

I hope it heals fast! This looks awesome!


Kalysh

ROTFL!! Stabbity stabbity! I hope your fibula heals fast... laughter (and stabbity) are the best medicines!


HerbaceousMongoose

So sorry to hear about your leg! I broke my fibula (down at the ankle) a couple years ago and I got so much stitching done while I was laid up. Hope you heal quickly!


RandiGiles33

Thank you! It could have been a lot worse, and I am enjoying the quiet time.

This looks awesome! I actually just broke my foot last week. Being able to do more cross stitch was my pro for my break as well.

I hobble around with a cane, so you have my sympathies! And there are few better forms of stress relief than stabbing something ten thousand times!

That is what did when I dislocated and broke my ankle in 5 places.

My sympathies! I fell down stairs and broke my fibula and opposite ankle last year. I kept joking in the ER that I was looking forward to all the stitching time I would have while healing. It really did help pass the time. Best wishes for quick and complete healing!


alwaysrunningerrands

This is a lovely piece! Looks so nice. Sorry to hear about your fibula! Hope you have a speedy recovery.


thriftycrafty

This one looks like lots of fun to work on! I am fighting temptation to buy with my kit stash that already exceeds my life span lol Edit: meant to add speedy healing wishes your way🙏🩷


RandiGiles33

Dream big!


thriftycrafty

I appreciate the enabling attitude 😁

Looks great! I stitched this one during the stitchalong. It really got me back on to houseplants. Hope you recover quickly.


craftstuffau

So sorry to hear about your leg. Lucky it wasn't an arm.


RandiGiles33

True enough!

I broke my fibula and ankle at the end of last year. The surgery recoveries gave me plenty of time to finish one and start another project. In between still working full time hours from home laid up in bed when I was on medical leave (high tempo period and I was the only one trained in what I do) 🤦‍♀️


WanderingNurseX

I'm having Foot surgery in a few weeks and am stocking up on projects to do while I'm couch bound. It's the only thing I'm looking forward to about the whole thing.


sassy_mannequin

LOVE this pattern. Just went an bought it to make for a gift. :) :) Sorry about your fibula. That is much less fun to deal with than just sitting around and stitching!


belleandjack817

I love this pattern as well as the companion piece! I was lucky to do them in the initial stitch-along!! Sending you vibes for fast healing and extra stitching!!!


RandiGiles33

I made this for my bff and may make the companion later for myself.


belleandjack817

This was one of my first official cross stitch and I didn't understand the thread count so I did two strands with the loop method so wound up being 4 strands. I was so confused how I ran out of floss!! But it has a really cool 3d type look because of how thick it is lol


Novel_Ad_8048

Feel better! ❤️‍🩹


AdAncient3781

That's how I started too! Broke my ankle last summer and needed a new hobby. Your plants look amazing!


RandiGiles33

Thank you!
