Cross Stitch Cafe 2011

Will keep a list of who wants what and on (should we say) 14th August?. Will:
a) put names in a hat of those who want same kit and let 'winner' know. Perhaps the winner could ;) the chart on to the unsuccesful ones for a £1 donation (if i manage to work out 'just giving'.

b) any unsold I can list on ebay with 100% going straight to MIND (and no fees to pay myself). Perhaps this is also a good way of doing the sales thro here then noone has to pass on personal info thro the site?? I could just set up a private ebay sale?

If we are in agreement??

Right am being holloured at to play trains but am around all day......

p.s. if you think i have priced too high then message me with your offer price and if no-one has offered full amount i will take highest bid. simerly if you are prepared to pay more

mrs-moneypenny

mine would be in it like a shot hes spent the whole weekend building cubes out of his dads training mats to camp in thats what hes in at the moment:rotfl:if theres a chance of a box from the supermarket hell offer to carry some shopping in it just to get it in the house.
hes 11 but hs one of those kids that is always making stuff to hide in and wanting to have a den.
if you lived nearer hes be knocking on your door by now asking for any unwanted boxes;)

and i like this one too bath time but when I was looking for something birthday themed to stitch earlier, I was kind of reminded that I don't actually need any more stitchy stuff for a very long time :rotfl:

This one, its soooo cute I wish I had children in my family so I have an excuse to stitch things like this

Incidentally I wonder who stitched the finished pieces for their site - £150-£200 for a finished piece...I could get into that lol :rotfl:

No....why?

Louise, its a very lucrative business so it is. I posted the framed eye on facbook and someone messaged me and asked if I would stitch it for her, she would give me £700... Thats over £5 per hour stitching. i did say no though as I stoped making cards because I resented making them for people who disn't apprichate them.

Ohhh I was seaching on there (which made me pick back up my stitching ) and there are loads of designs (as pdf) I want to sticth. They are very simple and very cheap but was wondering if any had used them before. I am thinking definatly of this doctor who one, this tree bird and finally this for the family christmas cards. And if I had kids there are some lovely disney inspired ones...

back to my stitching and I promise to have a picture to post tonight, its been nearly a month and I have stitched or completed anything. I must today
