I can recommend sewandso as site to buy from. I'm sure the other ladies can recommend other sites too.

Morning all
Nice to see someone else encouraging folks to buy new kits -so its not just me leading folks astray with links :rotfl:
Well -here is this weeks progress:-
last week:-
This week :-
Im getting there:j-Im sure that this thread -and thoughts of "when" I get to start a new design are what is spurring me on :T
Hubby keeps telling me to get the threads for that big orange lady if I want to start it next :eek:Im resisting -just ..... I WILL get that celtic lady finished first I WILL *must keep repeating that* -then I will have crossed 3 UFOs off -leaving the some bunny to love, a native American Indian one, and that "might" be it :A:rotfl:
Amazingly hubby picked up his x-stitch for the first time in ages yesterday :T-he is doing an owl in flight and has just the background to do I think -its gorgeous ...so Im really thrilled he has picked it up again -we are popping out today to price up a lamp for him to work under in the evenings
Right I had better get off, make a cuppa and settle down to get on with some more sewing-hope everyone is well -glad to see you back Jintyb -hope you are up to some sewing soon

Here is the chart

Thanks everyone...Im getting there :jthing is every time I undo her I remember how much I love her... still its for mum and will go much better in her house -so I WILL be able to give it away.....
ooohhhh *Louise* how lovely to start a nice new piece of fabric -*not jealous really* :rotfl:
Its very strange that you have posted a pic of your chart, as I took a pic of the orange lady chart the other day
Not sure how clear it is unless you click to get a bigger pic-
its like a magic eye picture-not helped by them using a symbol for all the unsewn fabric at the back -I think they are expecting me to x-stitch the background white :eek:-not on my nelly will I -its going on cream/ivory fabric and being left blank
-When I get around to starting her Im probably going to start off centre and do her face first.
Right I had better get back to mums lady -the sooner Im done the sooner I can get on with something else :j
Happy sewing everyone-6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.50
