I think using better floss has really made this one look a lot cleaner than my previous projects!

@MrJameGumb @lemmy_stitch I'm back on the greenhouse to show for #wipwednesday . I added the potted plant and you can see the silhouette of Prof. Carver in there! I also started another #CrossStitch project. What is it? Time will tell. All I can say is that I suck at gridding and I already messed it up...

Derp. I guess mastodon uploads don't carry over to Lemmy. Ah well.

p.s. the greenhouse is looking fantastic and that guy on the left is incredibly creepy 😂

The garden still looks amazing! I can't wait to see who the mysterious figure on the left is! I did not know gridding was a thing, so you are doing better at it than I am lol! I love the colors on the new design though!

And just to complicate matters further, images in comments here don't show up on Mastodon either!

If you're making a top-level toot on Mastodon and cross-posting it here, the first image in the toot will become the post image here. But that's sadly about it image-wise, so best to only use cross-posting when you're only expecting text replies 😆

Yeaaah... live and learn! I wanted to experiment because looking things up is no fun. Also tooting @ a community from Mastodon creates all sorts of weird formatting in the title when viewed from Lemmy. It would be amazing if there was more cross-compatibility.

Also the creepy guy will become much less creepy when finished. He was another amazing scientist that I had never heard of until now. George Washington Carver!

@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.
