Well .......... the September deadline is tomo for Noah's Ark and sad to say I have failed again!! Looks like I'll have to post the baby sampler to them Just the back stitching to do on it now and then the personalisation....... then the stretching and framing!! Roll on Wednesday when oldest goes back to school (though I shall miss her) and I can get stitching again at lunch time when little one has her nap!!

On a different note, what does everyone think of world of cross stitch please?? Was thinking of asking for a subscription for Christmas just so I try and keep my stitching up once the sampler is done

There are a few other charts on there that are worth a look, thanks for the link

I have subscribed to many mags over the past 10 years and that is the one I have had running constantly, I consider it one of the best :T

Hello ladies,
Louise - I laughed at that too :rotfl:

It did have a lot of great free charts on there, thanks Caroline.
I found a great one of Dr Who (might have been on that link?!) that had Matt smiths Doctor who with the words "bow ties are cool!" on. If I had more time I would have done that, it is fabulous!

Bobbismummy - I had that subscription earlier this year (when it was on a fab offer) and found it to be great. I may ask for it for this christmas as a gift.

Suppose I better start the Dalek!
AMx
