@bitflipped Definitely with you there! In this case the app in question actually has a pretty good export / backup process but I just got complacent and didn’t use it enough. Worked out ok in the end but it very nearly didn’t and my lesson is learned! 😬

@NickwithaC Sold!

@MrJameGumb Sounds like something a super cool YouTuber might already have given up on, more like 😛

@Jornia @Drachin @lemmy_stitch Will let you know how long this takes and if it was worth it in the end 😅

@Jornia @Drachin @lemmy_stitch Sadly mine has so much backstitch everywhere PK can’t really make sense of it. But you know what, I’m in the groove, I’ll just keep going.

For science! 😆

@Jornia @Drachin @lemmy_stitch Thank you! Mine is significantly smaller, but still big enough to be a pain in paper form, so sounds like I was on the right track all along.

*rolls up sleeves*

@ubermeisters Ah right, I was thinking maybe you meant people scan in the paper version, project it onto the fabric and sketch it out or something! Other way round makes a lot more sense 😁

@ubermeisters May have to look into this at some point if I ever stitch any more of their paper-only patterns!

@joeo10 @lemmy_stitch Thank you!

@IoSapsai @lemmy_stitch Yeah I’m not made of money, here!

Can’t decide how I feel about the AI thing, honestly. But it makes me a bit uncomfortable so I’ll sit with it and figure it out later 🤷‍♀️

@IoSapsai @lemmy_stitch Oh no, I didn’t even notice that and now I’m sad.

@IoSapsai The title thing happens because Lemmy takes the first line of your toot as the post title. So if you just put the first sentence on its own, and do your community tagging separately, it’s totally fine.

I have also experimented extensively, lol.

@sortofblue You’re welcome! Soon you too can have an unreasonably large library of Artecy patterns you’ll never get round to stitching! :apartyblobcat:

Sometimes they add them early in the month, sometimes on the last day, sometimes they forget entirely and then do two months all at once. I’ll post here whenever I find they’ve changed it, can’t hurt 😁
