Yes, I was using sticky dots, but those silly things just kept falling off! I ended up backing up and making a sort of fabric map, like when I am making a Bargello. That helped, plus I pinned the dots on. In hindsight, I also should have used my own system for the order....which would be 1,2,3, etc. instead of what the pattern suggested... AH, BH, CH, DH, EH, FH....and then AV, BV, CV, DV, EV, FV. I guess I do better with numbers. Always a learning process.
