As I will explain in more detail once I get around to doing my WIPocalypse kickoff (any day now, I promise!), this year I am trying to give some more love to my older, neglected WIPs. And the first lucky candidate is one I haven't douched in over a year and I think I never showed here before!
It's actually not cross stitch, but diamond painting. Yes, I got a couple when they first where all the range, but never worked on them much. This one is a pattern by Unconventional X Stitch called Towards the Light - on the smaller side for a full coverage cross stitch at just 38k stitches, but as a diamond painting it will still be almost 50cm x 50cm.
After 10 hours, I'm a little over 10% in, and look how pretty and shiny it is!
In case you're interested how it'll look like when it is finished...some day probably far along the road...here is the pattern mockup:

I have never tried this before, but have seen others doing it on blogs. You chose a pretty picture.
It's nice to try new crafts and your diamond painting is coming along nicely, Leonore. I've never tried it, but assume it is faster than cross stitching? Happy 2026! ♥
Lovely! I have a few DP projects as well, they can be a fun break.
