Seriously, though, the only time I ever do any sort of guidelines is to mark out sections in a round robin or to help keep me on track with a band sampler.

And if she can save me one third the time, she hasn't seen the size of my usual pattern.

Have children not been cross-stitching for centuries? And it must be oh, so relaxing to spend hours or days gridding before putting in a single stitch. That would send me into depression faster than realizing that I stitched an entire border in the wrong color!

I have even used scraps from my ort box.

If we were all as stupid as they think how could we possibly figure out how to get the thread into the needle.<br />I mean really folks - we need a special product to tell us how to grid something? Find the middle of the chart, find the middle of your fabric and count!

If I faced having to do that on any kind of a regular basis, I would probably give up stitching!

As it is, I'm probably looking at ten years or more on the silly thing. <br /><br />I can't imaging how this could help since I stitch in 10 x 10 squares then go on the the next 10 x 10.
