lovely photo chicky glad you managed to get something to help over the weekend

looks like everyones had a busy one judging by the amount of photos posted the updates are stunning everyones work looks lovely:T

finished one area of navy 1/2 cross stitches in my titanic sky so can actually change colour next time i get it out, that feels like such a huge achievment i started it easter sunday and have only been using one colour since i started, i think i put less time in than most in here:o but in defence i have stitched other small items since easter.

Good evening Ladies and Gents! I'm back after being a little bit missing in action. We've finally moved house hoorah!! (and haven't had any internet)!

Nana is still quite poorly but she's finally home and has carers going in now.

I started by Lanarte Flamenco dancer, I couldn't wait any longer and I've just bought the HAED chart Lost in Bliss!

So, what did I miss? How's everyone doing? I am now off to try and catch up on all the pages and pages of goss xx

ohhh......i WANT one!!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DMC-WOODEN-STORAGE-BOX-THREADS-NEW-/350453345558?pt=UK_Crafts_CrossStitch_RL&hash=item5198a5ad16



does anyone know the best value place for:
a) plastic bobbins?
b) plastic storage boxes for bobbins?
c) b with a as part of the package?

have scoured e-bay but best boxes i can see have cardboard bobbins (or doesn't specify) and am not keen on these ones.

thanks.

You are a very very naughty girl I want one too. Decided to have a google and found a few on ebay and some discontinued. But what about this one:
