    Cool puzzle!

      Wow, this is impressive! How many pairs of opposite and grid layouts did you have to do through to get everything to fit together? And the fill is beautiful too!

        Thank you!! I started out making a list of ~300 antonym pairs, and trying to make mini-crosswords with just them. I wanted to connect the left and right sides but couldn't make that work. After that, those words were unchanged and the grid changed around them, quite a lot.

        This was very fun, but "Spanish 'that'" got me so confused with ese/esa, eventually I figured out how to spell lemon and finished it though!
