    Hi All

    I have finally uploaded the cross stitch kits i want to give away
    Not my taste.. full kits including aida, chart and floss.
    if you fancy it PM me:D
    They're on offer for free but a contribution to or postage via paypal would be most welcome (as it won't be standard first class stamp or packaging) If you would like to contribute to postage.. please ask me for my email address.

    Won't be posted until Feb as I have not post office near me :( at work or home so will have to wait for day off on 31st Jan...sorry !!

    Okay, I know this is really off topic, and might get deleted, but I hope not as this is a very serious issue.

    My brother has gone missing, and the police have had the helicopter, vans and dogs out looking for him.

    I'm in Derby, and my family, including my brother are in Leeds, and with no transport to get there, all I can do is sit and wait, posting message on FB and DS, but I was wondering if there are any of our cross stitch group from Leeds, who could help spread the word???

    If you can, and want more info, please PM me here, or get me in FB via the FB group we have there, (you can find me on the FB MSE group under Joanna Robson), anything will help, (a status message would be great).

    Thank you.

    im so sorry to hear this any news yet?

    Thank you all so much, I really do appreciate it.
    Mum and Step-Dad went out to the area he was last seen about 2 hours aso, to try and re-trace his steps, no word from them yet.

    I have contacted local radio stations asking for them to do an on-air call out, had a reply within 10 mins from one saying they would.

    As the morning goes on, more and more people are being made aware of this, and are joining the group, mostly his friends, and people from that area, some complete strangers, to help spread the word.

    It's all just so overwhelming.

  • Chicky they are coming along nicely . the cabbage sampler looks really cute .
    thanks, did a load more last night (am bored of greens now) reallly into it and dont want to put it down for cut thru night. :p
    Well i've only got one and a half bears left to stitch then my calendar bears will be done. Amazing what a day away from here can do for you lol. run out of two colours due to numerous unpickings when i first started it lol so just ordered more.

    yay can't wait to see them finished, that reminds me i was gonna stitch the january one in january......... better sort out another bit of aida. wonder if i can make some sort of day/ date/ weather chart for DS from cross stitch things?? using backed aida pictures that he can hang on hooks (kinda like this) hmm think that may take me longer then a year!
    cheeky i know but I'm looking for a cross stitch chart for my grandson and wondered if anyone had a copy of it i can't get one anywhere. i have the girl version but not the boy. It's dmc XC0911A Long ago discontinued i fear . No matter how tatty the copy i'd love to give it a go.

    I've had a quick look online but will look better for you in a min (now DS is leaving me alone and stopped winging for 2 mins to eat crackers).

    I reallly hope he turns up safe and sound, I've got a few facebook groups I could post messages on for you, I'm in Sheffield so don't know whether its worth posting on our local forum - is he likely to venture over here (friends here or anything??) message me if i can help.

    Thats generous, am sure someone will happily take you up on your offers. The only one i think i would ever do is the postbox one for my daddy (a postman) but then that would be adding to my stash..... ohh decisions....... let me know if noone else asks for it....
    loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:
  • Sorry I can't help Soulie as I am in Belfast, but I am praying for you and your family. I really do hope he turns up soon...((((((((((Hugs))))))))))

    Also - has anyone ever stitched this and could help with a ;)? (Or know where I can get just the chart) My daughter spotted it, said "look mummy, it's me sleeping!"and has begged me to make it into a cushion for her 4th birthday. It's over £15 for the kit, but I really don't need any more materials.
