Just bumping this bit up a bit from last page

"Have got a few people to sort out still cos haven't got their SAE's/don't know their real names and cant match up letters! Have got a lovely letter and SAE from Lesley in Strathpeffer but don't know your MSE name to match up and send you the right letter - please let me know and I can send it asap. Just realised it is probably Lelc (doh) but would like to make sure before I post it, just in case (especially since my MSE name bears resemblance to my real name!)

Still to sort/send:

Need to get started on my letter now! Any volunteers to do my french knots cos I can't do them

My SAE is winging it's way to you. No rush to send it back-it'll be my June challenge anyway.

please feel free to write your name and county however you are comfortaabel and think fits best in the space provided.

Your options are:
I.e. for Frank Bloggersbottom living in Yorkshire (username: bloggy35) he could write:

Frank - Yorkshire
Bloggy35 - Yorkshire
Bloggersbottom - Yorkshire (a very tight fight)
F. Bloggersbottom - Yorkshire (an even tighter fight)

Hope that helps people.

I'm going with 'First Name'- 'County' :T

After consultation with Chickywiggle I'm now decided on first name - county. Glad a few others are too, my full name is a bit too long, it'd just look weird :rotfl:

Good Luck with the French Knots ladies, now I look at mine again I don't think I'd have been so quick to choose the dragon if I'd seen so many of them on there LOL.

I'm happy to do any french knots if people really don't want to do them. I quite like doing them myself.

Now I've seen a completed square I can start mine. :j I think it'll be a lunchtime cross-stitch project rather than my main cross-stitch.


Quick question: Do you want us to wash our own square or just post it off as is?

Thought this might help when trying to layout your name tag.

Now I am in quandry - do I put

J H Pless - Glasgow

or

Jean - East Dunbartonshire

Still to graph it and see. Probably best the Glasgow one (as its shorter).
Decisions, decisions.

Kind wishes

PS French knots - argh - don't feel mine are strong enough.
