FE & Mags, please help! In the DMC club how are you two seeing so many charts? Once logged in I can only see 8 categories and just under 150 charts, not the 100's that you 2 can see
Please tell me how you are seeing so many

I'm using the UK site if that makes any difference?

Thanks so much FE!
I now realise what I was doing wrong.

Logging into US club does indeed give many more charts than the UK club.
Seems that changing from UK to US whilst logged in will log you out. I didn't realise that first thing this morning. The US site gives freebies when not logged in, I was seeing those and wondering where the rest were. Once logged in I saw the rest.

Soulie - thank you so much for saying the Home and Bargain storage tubs aren't as good as the DMC ones. You have made my day! All last night at a girlie night at my friends I moaned about the cost of it (yes I know I need to get a life!) it just wound me up so much that I had paid £4.00 more than I needed to, so its great that its not as good iyswim.

Anyway I got the DMC storage tub today, only bought it yesterday so excellent service. I also got the embroidery storage cards I bought yesterday too so thats another good service. Just waiting for my threads and bobbin winder and I'm sorted!

I did receive the CD I bought, so I will have a look at that later and let you all know what its like.

This has just arrived from China...

I'm really impressed as I ordered it on the 4th June and it has arrived this morning. I was a bit wary ordering from China as the last one took so long to arrive.

I want to start it now but oh says I'm not allowed to until I finish the other one.

Also joining the DMC USA site..Cheers for the link

Decided to splash out and order the file inserts and stitchbows (from acrosstown stitching), I already had half as the person I bought the DMC threads from had them organised using the DMC gold storage, so seems a worthwhile investment and no winding bobbins

Aneres - Progress is looking really good and the new kit also looks fab!.

23 - my special fabric is not even coming out of the packet until I have improved sufficiently enough to purchase my Tree of stitches chart :P

I've just started on my oriental exchange piece and I also purchased a Dimensions (is that the same co as DMC?) rockstar starter kit for bf lil bro's b'day soon, I'll use it to make him the rockstar kit and mount in on a music manuscript book i think and then I can keep the 3" hoop that comes with kit (which was main reason for buying in the first place). Win Win

Finished my summer exchange piece just need to wash it (any advice given for simple and quick method please) and mount it.

Right have a lovely stitchy weekend everyone and sorry for the essay

Thank you for the Link to DMC Flat Eric - Did you see the flags in the sport section http://dmc-usa.com/DMC-Club/Home/Free-Projects/Sport.aspx
Could you maybe use those to do your flag project?

Still not finished Fizzy moon and it has to be done tonight! :eek:
Please send me a kick up the bottom ladies!

Love your update Anaeres! I wish I had the confidence to try a big piece, but it would take me years!!

Right hopefully going to finish Fizzy moon
Have a lovely stitchy Saturday all!
