What is it going to be?

this was an attempt at a rug - I am still learning how to needlepoint so this particular practice will not be anything, but my goal is to start making rugs for my cottage :)

You appear to be off to an excellent start!  Just remember to check frequently that all the stitches go the same way.

Good for you trying this!  I have to say, these are the sort of crafts that I'm happy to pay someone to do because I know I can't!!!

@Spooky SquirrelOff to a good start! Is that embroidery floss or wool? It looks like wool, which might be too bulky for this, but maybe I'm mis-seeing it. I use one strand of DMC floss.

It also looks like you're doing full cross stitches. I like to do full crosses but on higher count fabrics they can be too bulky. In that case you can just do half a cross.
