    Hi and welcome posting!

    I am loving the Newtons Law designs, very cute.
    Reminds me I must get a Me to You kit as a cousin of mine is 18 soon and she loves MTY bears.

    Misty, thanks for the mystic stitch site. Very gorgeous charts.

    I haven't picked my stitching up for awhile because I know I have a few bits to unpick and re-stitch and can't get in the mood to do so :o
    Though I want to get it done soon as I have the MTY to buy and stitch by January and I am itching to get my hands on the Tiger & Cub kit I am getting for xmas :D
    :heart2: Love isn't finding someone you can live with. It's finding someone you can't live without :heart2:

    Having a wee tantrum, as part of my break from the dreaded 'T' was stitching some xmas cards, missed a stitch and now have to unpick loads - put me right of stitching for the rest of the evening.... however as a treat to me, and I want to put up pictures in my house, want to try and fin some reasonablly large landscapes to stitch.... ideas where to find the charts (especially of cornwall or wild and rugged landscapes). No piccy update as I am afraid you would need a magnifying glass to see how little i have done.

    I found these sites http://www.iriss.co.uk/cornishstitch.htm , http://www.sybilladavisdesigns.co.uk/acatalog/cornish-cross-stitch-designs.html and i love this design at mystic stitch http://www.mysticstitch.com/detail.aspx?ID=6411 but i prefer the split pictures not the big one, must resist :rotfl:

    Sorry MrsM whilst googling i found an uk site that sells mystic stitch designs as patterns or kits http://www.country-designs.co.uk/designers/mystic%20stitch.aspx not that i'm tempting you, honest ;)

    Morning all

    ooohhh nnm -and that site you linked has the one I liked too :o..*must resist, must resist* :rotfl:
    Those tree ones caught my eye too, aren't they lovely :D
    oh oceemer.... what a pain in the bum... and it seems to take much longer to unpick stitches than to put them in doesn't it:mad:

    I WILL resist any more charts...honest :p -I am going to finish "forest light" and the "celtic summer" then I have "garnet", "golden earth" oh and "star santa" to do (not to mention various other kits etc that are still in the queue .......I have all the threads for the 3 above and just need the fabric for 2 of them.... so NO more until they are done...... honest :o
    Hope everyone gets time to do some sewing today...have a great day everyone:D

    I did! :D Admittedly not much but I got the roof of a conservatory done. Having looked again at the bits that need unpicking and restitching I'm not sure I'm going to bother......though ask me again in a few days and the answer might be different :rotfl:
