http://www.embroiderstitch.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=2738

I dont want it, however i have started it, mind you not much ive done half a bears head ! ll and thats it

If anyone wants this pm me - of course free ! lol x

I just dont want to throw it in the bin as it was 24.99, and i would take it to my local charity shop but the prices they charge in there are really annoying me.

This is a message for AWESOME 2

I've sent you 2 PM's but I can't see them in my "sent" box so I don't think it's working properly !.

Anyway Lola uses 14 count aida and the kit includes a piece measuring 16 by 20 inches. The actual stitched area is 11 by 12 inches so there's a big margin allowing for framing it with a mount as shown in the picture.

Hope this makes sense and apols if this is the 3rd time you've got this info !

Hello everyone, I'm hoping someone out there can help me.

I'm trying to find this cross stich pattern, House Rules by Joan Elliott.

I made one years and years ago for my MIL, sadly the pattern has been lost and I would love to make one for my new home. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I might have this in a Joan Elliott book. I can't check until later this evening though but I'll let you know.

Hi everyone
I know its coming to the end of the year, but was wondering if could join in?
I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant and signed off on the sick, with very little chance of going back, so have decided to start stitching again.
I've never been very adventurous (confident in my ability), but did complete a sampler when my DS was born, although he was 1 before it was finished.

I've just taken delivery of a new sampler for this baby and one for DS's Grandrarents, which I want to have finished for Christmas as a present. Obviously, the one for baby I can't complete until baby arrives, but would like to have most of it completed before the end of the year when baby arrives.

Hi and a big welcome to our "club". We stitch at all levels on here so you don't need to feel you lack confidence, just stitch what you enjoy and when you enjoy it. Quite a few of us are or have been ill and find stitching very therapeutic so hopefully it will help you too.

Hi Casper.

Someone on here (sorry can't remember who ) kindly shared the chart with me by email so if you PM me your email address I'll send a copy along to you.

Welcome Welsh Lassie! Hope the remainder of your pregnancy goes well

Getting quite excited myself, as I've just received 5 balls of Super Chunky Wool from Ravelry and I'm hoping to get hold of a full set of Needlecraft Magic of someone.

I also did a bit of stitching last night on a bookmark that I had started, that was a free kit with something.

It's all going good at the moment.

Hi guys,

Im starting to feel a bit more better so hoping tomorrow I may be able to restart the back stitching on the treble clef. I have no idea what to do after that. Something that doesnt avoid blue as I have no blue threads at all. I buy the Kreinik and Mill Hill Beads for my next planned project in the Wimblebees sale but they cancelled the pattern and then my benefits got mixed up so I cant afford the threads and the pattern is double the price anywhere else which I still cant afford. I was really upset my Wimblebees. So now I have things I dont want sitting in a cupboard when I could be putting them to good use. grr and have no blues so struggle to make use of designs in the magazines.

Glad to see you made use of the evenweave. And the Everyone Brings Joy chart looks good how you personalised it too! You've done heaps of stitching. Well done.
Hubby bought me the magazine with your article in it as my sub had ran out. You're really pretty & I love your hair like that. Suits you! How's your mum about the mag now?

(Can't sleep...aragh! Might have to crack open the Nytol again)

The evenweave was a lot easier to use than I thought and I still have some left and am keen to use it again at some point. It looks like I have been doing loads of stitching but its seriously been a month its just when I do stitch its literally for 20 hours a day so I get loads done! My mum had came around to the mag, purely because no one has mentioned it to her! We didnt even show the family.

Hi ladies.

No stitching done this week so far as hubby is on hols so we have been out everyday and by the time we get home I'm too knackered to pick up my stitching

I'm feeling mixed emotions today as I had a job interview for a job I really want!
On the one hand it will be great to work again as I haven't worked for 2 1/2 years so the money will be very welcome.....on the other hand I won't be able to do much stitching but I guess that just means I'll appreciate it more when I do

I hope you get the job. Fingers XXX
