Ailsb - it's another vote for the fraying and sticking from me. Hth
sk00bie - those angels are fantastic. You mentioned John Clayton - I quite like the Harbour Reflections.
It is NOT going on my to do list - honest.
Right that's it for tonight - off to check in with our leader :money: on his tv programme.

Will be a week on Thursday since I last did any cross stitch.
Was too busy with my nose in WOXS to do any cross stitching on the bus to work this morning. Have a few projects on the go. Will prob stitch tigger at the weekend but may change my mind....

Thanks for the comments re the card. Think the fray method has it.
Sk00bie - your angels are really cute.
I have the same problem re stashing, have a room full of craft stuff from cross stitch, to knitting (currently knitting a scarf using Rico), to card making stuff, material for bags etc etc. Have so much stuff and so little time to do things. Keep thinking that if I have no money in future I can use my stash until the day I die and still have things left to pass on to my family.Cross Stitch Cafe Member #59 :j

Christmas Card - I have finished my design for the card exchange but it's too big to go in an aperture card. The design measures 12cm x 7cm that's from stitch to stitch without any fabric showing. Unfortunately I miscalculated my fabric so don't have much on either side to play with, just over 1cm on each side, top and bottom isn't an issue.

Oh mine feels small in comparison now - think its about 3½" by 4½". Did a bit of stitching on it last night tho missed purple work.
Was really annoyed with computer last night wouldn't work for love or money but this morning thus far its been ok.
Oh well, off to work I go.
Keep well
sweetcarer:j cross stitch forever, housework whenever :j0 -

Yep - that lovely turtle you were stitching for your son? Still showing here, never went away
Is it just yours that has vanished for you or everyone's? There's a setting in the "UserCP" section for switching them on and off. Maybe it needs tweaking?0
