Inspired by other Flosstubers, a few months ago, I created a booklet Stitchy Tracker, which I showed in a recent video.  I have gotten positive feedback and requests to share the files, so I am posting them here:


Basic instructions


Printing Instructions


Assembly Instructions


Pages for printing:


Full Sheet


Top-only


Bottom-only


I am planning to do a tutorial video once I've returned from my trip to Wisconsin. (should be posted sometime in August)

UPDATE: Video tutorial completed... you can find it here.


If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.   Happy Stitching!

3.  Show us these ungifted projects, and talk about them….
            - who it is meant for?
            - why did you chose it for them?
            - pattern, designer, fabric, threads?
            - why is it unfinished?
            - what is stopping you from FFOing it and gifting it?
