Louise. Can't wait to see the Lego wall pics....wondering if it's anything like I have pictured in my mind

Haha probaby not :rotfl:


Anyway, here it is for now, 15feet long and 3 feet high:




Also...was having a clear out and found two UFO's from 2008 which I can't even remember starting :o (Way back when I still used hoops, as you can tell ) Going to try and get them done in the next couple of months as well.

Oooo I started that Fairy one too Louise - you've done a bit more than me though. I got fed up with the shiny thread!

You are right, not what I imagined at all! Looks very good though.

Morning all

Welcome Brednall, that picture is gorgeous, lovely framing too.

Louise, my bridesmaid dresses didn't have pearls, they were little crystals, so sounds like we had identical dresses must have good tastes!! Loving the lego.

Bookmark is looking lovely Observer.

Well last week was mostly spent making a card for my friends wedding on saturday.



It was my 1st card like this, so I hope its ok!

Just a few photos for you before I crack on with my list!

apols for not replying sooner.

You looked stunning on your big day. I love the favour bags, such a personal touch for your guests.

All the luck in the world for your treatment - wishing for a good outcome and no side effects.

The 2 over 2 is an instruction for even weave.

Basically, 28 count is the number of threads per inch, so you stitch over 2 threads, making it 14 stitches per inch.

The equivalent aida is 14 count, and you stitch one stitch per square. Does that make sense?

Thanks so much will order the chart now

I don't pay much attention to flowers so haven't really noticed, but have every issue so will look them up for you

Thanks Louise, if you could that would be great, I have the rose but I need the other two, just hope I haven't missed them

Welcome Emma :j

hi everyone, i'm still having internet connection issues, and for some reason cant see all your pictures. grr. anyway, what i can see looks awesome.

i think my last post has gone astray... either that or it didnt 'send' due to slow connection. ho hum. one down side of net problems is having a bit of spare time with the computer...i've now managed to make my scanner work fabulously! so i'm sitting here waitng for pages to load and scanning a few charts from a library book - must be legal, i'd never be able to stitch them before they needed returning!

CHICKY - that letter is amazing! when i can i will print it out and stick it in my diary to remind myself when i'm 80 what a fantastic thing we had here... not that i'll need reminding... we'll still be going strong i'm sure!!:T

I had a look last night but had trouble finding a series of flowers (prob just me being blind) Can you let me know the issue and page number of the one you have so I can see what it looks like?
