Cross Stitch Cafe 2012

Ailsb

Whilst looking for a photo of Footprints so that I can change my Avatar I came across a site that I haven't been on before. It's selling the Mystical dragon kit that someone was after a few pages ago. I don't think the price is too bad - have to admit that I haven't checked out the P&P.

Just checked postage and the kit I was looking at the postage was £15.00 so unless you order quite a bit I think this is prohibitive - sorry.

Hi Susan42.

candlelight looks lovely *louise*.

Ailsb it's the avatar of the facebook page one I'm after, but no rush as the person that asked for it has ignored my request to send me her e-mail address so guess she's not that bothered. Thanks for looking tho.

Evening all

I hope everyone has had a fab weekend. shame it goes too quick.

I have been out most of the day after a very early start. I took my cross stitch with me as had a bit of waiting around but didn't manage much. The backstitch I need to do needed more concentration than sitting in a car with my hat, coat and scarf on would allow ! especially when you are stitching backstitch with black thread over a bear that has black paws, black ears, etc! I'm unlikely to get any done tonight as have friends coming round and it would be rude to stitch - well actually I would stitch if I could get away with it but I don't want to make any mistakes so will save for another day.

I was wondering if anyone keeps a blog? I have posted in mine again. I think some of you may follow it already but if you don't, its called I would rather be cross stitching (its on blogger)

**sits in the corner and sulks all day**

Ordered some threads from Across Town on Tuesday night hoping they would arrive in time for a big stitchy weekend so that I could get on with fire engine pic and yes you've guessed it - no threads yet!! I've got everything ready to start - I've even put gridlines on aida, :eek: don't usually bother. Will have to watch out for postie tomorrow.

Great updates everyone.

Louise I think Candlelight has to be one of my all time favourites.

Ailsb - I quite like the look of that site but the postage put me of too.

Soulie - I sometimes do that too - bring the threads through to the front until I can finish them off.

Hellooo Susan42 - looking forward to seeing your little koala.

Happy Stitching everyone
