Comment regarding my current cross-stitch project

[carbonel]

This project has an entire border of lazy daisy stitch. I really hate lazy daisy stitch.

I'm just sayin'.

I'm with you on that one.

Unrelated: How do you measure the liquid Sugar Twin? Is 1 tsp Sugar Twin equivilant to 1 tsp sugar?

I haven't had anything where I've had to measure exactly, because for that I'd use the powdered sweetener. But I'd guesstimate that it's about a one teaspoon to one teaspoon correspondence.

What I find it really useful for is sweetening tea (the powdered stuff has much more aftertaste for some reason) and for cooking when I just want a bit more sweetness and I don't have to worry about powder dissolving (or not) or clumping.

I now have six and a half lazy daisy clusters left -- probably another evening's work to go. The nice thing about cross-stitch is that as long as you keep slogging at it, you will make progress.
