  • Kindof, I use http://www.across-town-stitching.talktalk.net/
    don't be put of by the crappy looking website I've always found them reliable. Yes the threads are DMC, they also sell Anchor. If you want the 50, 100 or 200 bundles click on offers. Their kits are cheap too :D

    Som I would buy a mag with a free cover kit to start with, there instructions are often easier to understand than those in a kit ;)

    It took me ages to pluck up the courage to knock, sounds silly i know but i hate stuff like that it feels so awkward. I felt shaky afterwards too :rolleyes: Doh :o

    He didn't say anything just looked at me gormless and nodded his head. lol.

    Been trying to get in touch with my mother all morning, good job i'm not in labour or need urgent help with something :rolleyes:
  • Awwww go for it :) then we can post pics for everyone :)

    Som - Its really not hard (well I dont think so) I think you need patience although I am not patient at all lol. I would deffo reccomend it, I would say for your first one stay away from tatty ted, I hate tatty ted lol I love the bear but the cross stitches are solid!!!!

    Here are some other cross stitches I have done:

    YAY moos for being team pink :) (I will see your pics once I get home, they are blockd here)

    Aww PP so sorry you are having a really bad time :(

    Your cross-stitches are fantastic, I can see why you're proud of them - quite rightly so. I'm afraid I haven't done anything that good, but I do find them really therapeutic.

    MOVED! Am in my new front room (which is at the back of the house lol!) surrounded by paperwork and loving it (new house, warts & all, not the paperwork!). Just discovered someone round here has an unsecured network so thought I'd guiltily pop in and say hello (our internet is sorted next week I think). I've had a quick scan back and hope I've not missed anything out. I am still here, bp creeping up but 37 weeks tomorrow so don't mind now, little man can come out whenever he feels like it, my bump has definitely dropped which is good, I think!

    PP -pleased you are still with us and baby is growing, all the problems aside
    32b - hugs, not a lot else to say but thinking of you
    som - new house is walking distance to leisure centre so hopefully, money tightness alllowing, see you tomorrow night
    gisi- you still here?! very overdue labour vibes to you

    labour / sticky vibes all round. guilt getting the better of me so back to paperwork - or maybe I will investigate the local coffee shops....

    I agree, that's how I started off too. Then when I had a bit more confidence, I started buying other kits.
