I left my last job because of burnout and with no change in sight. My current job is much better about it.

But also hearing about Alie doing cross-stitch, I had to share my current project. I'm working on the detail work, so I'm so close to getting done. I can't wait to have it all completed.

Same reason I left a previous job. They glorified grit, I was beyond burnt out, nothing there was going to change. So I left.
Same as you, my current job is way better, I finally have a life.

Goooorgeous! Wow! How do you keep track of the pattern? With an app or crossing off on paper? Do you "thread park?" I just started so I'm working on really small simple things & I accidentally read that the back is supposed to be as neat as the front and I call bullshit on that as a beginner, lolol

celestialblue.bsky.social•102 days ago

As a beginner, the back will not look like the front, but it's a goal.

For tracking, I don't do anything to the pattern anymore, but if things are confusing or too big, I will cross it off, usually with pencil to not lose the detail lines that are there.

Can't wait to see your project at any stage

fantastic episode. i would write a longer review, but i’m too burnt out 😔

markparsons.bsky.social•102 days ago

I would listen to this one, but I don't think I can bring myself to. Listening to people talk about burnout makes me feel even more burnt out than I already am. 🥲 I don't suppose the ergopathologist addresses this conundrum
