Have a look at http://www.pictureframesexpress.co.uk/ (they've changed their website lately, but I've had good experience with them.

I've just had a look at that and (just guessing sizes at the moment) it would cost the same amount (£28) to buy the frame, mount and plexiglass as it would cost to get it all done for me. It's a great site though

Love that cabbage patch cross stitch. Good idea to put a little bow in the hair.
Just finished all the baking cats.


Am thinking of putting Ginger in the middle and the rest surrounding him

Oh I LOVE those cats. Where did you find them Penni??

I don't have my cross-stiitcher yet. I really can't decide if I like it. Thinking of swapping to Cross Stitch Collection. That seems a bit more grown up.

Has anyone seen Bubbles recently. Talk of x-stitch mags always reminds me of her - after her article x

Yay tis Friday, dh is home and I can go stitching (with old people at church) for the evening. Am getting on well with Jan challenge but need to crack on a bit now.

Bought one of the blue pens to mark up squares so will see if it makes me any speedier

tellme; They were in one of the cross stitch mags a while ago. I havn't bought a mag for ages. They are getting to expensive for me especially when there isn't anything that takes my fancy. I did like reading the readers letters tho that was the page I turned to first, but since lurking on here I get my fix now!!

Well, I had a good look through - couple of things this time I do like - the Margaret Sherry Jungle animals (Margaret Sherry can do no wrong, I always like her stuff) and I will prob give the buttons a go to use on cards, but apart from that that's it.

I go the intro offer on Cross Stitch Gold, so when that ends I will choose between that and Crosstitcher. I'm thinking CSG may win that lol.

Aside from that - looking forward to the next World of Cross stitch, some nice designs in it - lovely baby sampler and a ballerina (I have liked them since I was little) so I can see me adding to my list next month:D

I'm gonna search through my collection, but if I can't find it, is there any chance that you could.... well you know

I can swap it for Every Life should have 9 cats

I really like Margaret Sherry, dont like all the half stitches tho (cheat a lot and dont bother!)
The blue pens are great, but don't do what I did and mis count the squares 11 instead of 10....oh the shame!
