Cross Stitch Cafe - stitching out of 2012 and into 2013...

I'm sure someone posted a bargain deal for the full set of DMC on the other thread, it was like £150 or something. Grrr off to search old thread :rotfl:

EDIT: Found it, it was Mags_Cat and she bought them from here they are £170 without boxes, i'm sure it was cheaper than that but my memory is not so good :rotfl:

Yep - that was me. I spent a little more and got the boxes too. I had contributions from my parents and several friends in place of a birthday present so that helped with the cost.

You can get the whole set of skeins cheaper - but the sheer convenience of getting them pre-wound in number order was what swayed me! (How many hours would that have taken me?! I'd still be at it next birthday....:rotfl:)And the lady that runs the site is absolutely lovely.

Don't have this issue (rarely buy that particular mag) but worth googling the chart you are interested in on eb** as you might find someone has bought that particular mag but is selling the charts from it separately?

Sorry I did have a look but I haven't got that issue. However the publisher still has back copies linky Not the cheapest way to buy but if you are desperate......
