The designer for x-calibre used to live the the next village to me many years ago and I stitched the 'blackwork stitcher' for her to use as a sample. http://www.x-calibredesigns.co.uk/html/lacemaking.html

I like to think that the one in the picture is the one that I stitched! :rotfl: They are really nice to do, as I don't really like back stitch but the ones on the site are better because there are all different stitches IFYWIM.

Dear Louise, I'm so sorry about your Dad and wish him all the luck and strength in the world - sounds like he's a fighter so more power to his elbow.

A friend of mine was diagnosed with C in Dec and the day before his treatment started he said "let battle commence" That attitude has kept him quite upbeat about the whole nightmare and somehow he manages to buoy up his family.

Hi ladies.

Finally picked up my needle today, not stitched since friday when I got all the X's done. Done 2 hours of backstitch (not that you would notice) and had enough.
I'm hoping to be completely finished by next update day, Monday.

Well I done it today I cancelled my cross stitcher subs today wasn't happy for a while with it, part of my past gone.

That is one A4 sheet of xstitch - was wondering whether to do backstitch next on this page or keep going with xstitch - decisions decision eh

Might have a little break from this as I need a card doing and just as we speak 'ollie the owl' is winging his way to me. Sorry I know this is mse but I just couldn't resist him

Tomorrows shopping list - THE MAG and some aida for card - promise no other purchases

Take care everyone
