    I am thinking of buying my MIL a starter cross stich kit as she doesnt get out much in the winter, can you get really simple ones to start with?

    Louise, hobby craft do some tiny 99p ones to fit inside cards. Thats a good way to start although my first kit was one from a magazine front. Anything 200 stitchs or under would be a good start. Once you have completed one and got the hang of it you can do any size as you just take it step by step. My first ever ones were awful because all my stitch's started and ended differently. I now stitch in the same way on each stitch and its much better :T


    Well I am back :j Bath was fab although we kept getting lost :rolleyes: Also stopped in Bristol on the way home and went in Hotel Chocolat (xmas gifts) :tongue: I have hinted at a huge choc slab for my birthday ;) been a good day all around... However now back to saving money mode and I need to update my diary etc etc :o
