Cross-stitch cafe 2010

Glad you are ok Mrs M. and thanks for the info on wimblebees, I'll go take a look now. Well, it'd be rude not to with such good discounts.

Mummipig, at the risk of being a bit cheeky, is there any chance you have a HAED called Motherhood? I absolutely love it and have been trying to convince myself to find some pennies to get it to add to Kezias wall. At the rate I'm going I'll never need to paint it again, it'll just be covered in photos and stitching.

Thanks in advance

Is that one of the black fairy ones? I love the look of those but not sure I have the patience - am off to count out all our spare change and sort out our bank balances to see how much I can spend on things;)

I have been cross stitching for as long as I can remember & didn't realise you had a thread here. I have been reading lots but rarely post on my hobby thread, just lots of reading & oooohing.
I'd really like to share this with others I think will appreciate it. It was a labour of love. I put it down several times over the period it took me to stich but I still love it to this day. I've yet to frame it as you can see. Sorry about the awful easel but it was the best I could do given the rain & poor light elsewhwer in the house.

Have a super easter. I do hope to post more often but cross stich is again on the back burner but always a passion I know will return someday.

Enjoy.

I'm bitterly regretting having more than one project on the go at once. Am I the only one who just likes to concentrate on one thing at a time?

Harley, I'm just the same, the only time I have a secondary project is when my primary project is on my standing frame, as it doesn't travel easily.

Hogshead I bet that took a while to do! Well done its great

Dorastar sounds like I was doing the other day, just a tip...any change in OH's pocket is naturally spare change and they aren't allowed to argue this

Harley1 Sorry to hear you've both been poorly, hope you're ok now? never having to paint again sounds great :jlol

FunFairPrincess Ill have a look and let you know if I find anything

and Hi again MRSM these OH's !!!!!! up your routine don't they! lol :rotfl:

Mumipig -there is one of those kits (high Maintanance on the wimblebees sale) ... 50% off and if you put (2614) in the discount code box -you get an extra 20% off
http://www.wimblebees.com/p_K[f]J01[f]05-1446_1.htm
click on the sale section and its on page 4 -with the discounts off it comes to £3.22 for the KIT

Thanks!

I'm debating it but it's a stupid situation at the moment where just over a fiver has to be thought about very carefully :mad: lol

I have sent emails to all of you that wanted charts... let me know if you need more

It is this one

Although, when I searched on motherhood I found this one too which is gorgeous

I think I could happily do either of them and they would both look great with the colour scheme I have.

Thank you all, we are both feeling quite a bit better now although Kezia seems to be getting a cold now. One of the joys of going to nursery one day per week I suppose. That one day will allow me to be at home with her the rest of the time until mid July though, so I am very grateful that she can go just the one day. Just a shame about the illnesses that seem to go hand in hand with it.

Hi mummipig.
Just wondering if in your HAE chart stash you have any QS (quick stitch) charts? Also do you know what size they come out at?

TIA

What's the 'afghan' I keep seeing mentioned? I am imagining an alphabet of afghan dogs?!?

Sorry to ask but what's MIA? I have seen it on another thread recently but can't fathom it out.
