Thank you. I cut 1.25" squares that end up 3/4". I look for cross stitch patterns that are less than 100x100 count. I label rows with letters and the columns with numbers to label each block. I have a flannel board that holds 10 rows of 10 squares. That is how the CS pattern is laid out. I cut some squares that are needed and place in a plastic bowl with a label for its corresponding CS symbol. Literally one block at a time.
