So pretty, very nice work! You did a beautiful job of keeping it square, not letting it get all pulled out of shape.

Thanks.

Cross stitch tends to stay squared if you put the same tension on your stitches, because is being pulled on both directions evenly, unlike needlepoint, where only one side is pulled. I don't use a hoop or frame.

Thanks again for all you comments.
