Cross-stitch cafe 2010

*Louise*

Craft bubble?? Never heard of it...*goes to google*

I'd feel a bit cheeky to join just to blag a chart though, but I might just try and convince hubby that the kit would make a good birthday present


Got plenty to get on with for now though, so no rush. Got evenweave fabric arriving soon (hopefully tomorrow), so am going to start one of those silhouette designs that Eric's mum kindly sent. :j

Hi all

I haven't been around for ages as it only took one week of avoiding my UFO's and I haven't done any stitching since.

Re that expensive chart. There's a website whose name I can't recall where people upload books, pamphlets etc they have in their own possession on every imaginable subject. Sorry I can't remember the name.

Hi Louise
Could you post how you get on doing the silhouettes please. I have also had some from Erics mum and cannot wait to start but I am in the middle of this

You're a brave soul to pick the first two. I find that accessories, threads, books etc seem to have a bigger hold on me than kits.

Done some work on the top two blank panels since last update, so you get three photos this time. :T

Hoping to order the materials for golden earth/orange lady this weekend.

Kind wishes to all

i really like that tree one - but i think it's a bit beyond me.

i just finished a poundland kit UFO with lettering taken from a magazine last month. i'm a little embarased to show it, as it's noting compared to your amazing efforts (and i didn't notice there were 2 different oranges till after i'd done the big flower ), but perhaps someone can advise on the best way to mount it for a card without buying a card with a hole in it?

Tis a good job they cost a lot - I am one for loving charts but would get bored - am already regretting my charlies ark one.

I defo could never start a HEAD one.... I LOVE all the ballerina ones on that website but again could never do them.

BUT - YAYAYAYAY the birthday fairy (AKA my mummy) is buying me the "4 letter words" one for my birthday :j:j:j:j I'll just have to look longingly at it until June......or later!!!
