A friend who is working a large complex portrait in cross stitch mentioned she is trying the Easy-Count Guideline to make keeping track of areas easier. Since this seems of interest to all my friends who do counted thread projects from charts, I looked into what this is (link one) and how it works (link two's video).

I haven't used this myself but the next time I lose my mind and decide to work a counted project with a lot of detail, I will. Thanks for the tip, Wendy!
