Hi ladies.

Maria. Love all your finishes, especially the red heart cushion.

Skoobie. Your wedding outfit looks lovely. Can't wait to see pics of the big day next April!

23rd. Congrats on your wedding! Can we see a pic?

FE. Look forward to updates of your Row of Cats design.

Mrsmp. How awful! I'm sure she will still look beautiful when finished.

Chaplin. Hi and welcome!

Elle. I'd say if you really love it, buy it while it's on sale. When I fall in love with a design I like to get it bought because I worry that if I leave it a while it will be discontinued.
What's the worst that can happen? You buy it, don't get round to stitching it and so lose a few dollars but at least buying it, you know you have it.
Though I'm probably not the best to advise because even though I have a cupboard full of kits I am currently buying fabric and threads for 5 designs I fell in love with in magazines recently

Do you means the little phrases like :-

"Moment on the lips, lifetime on the hips!" and "Fridge pickers wear big knickers!", if so why not chart them out with a nice alphabet and a simple border.?

flowerp - the exact ones were in a cross stitch mag a few years ago, Perhaps you can find them on ebay?

meanwhile, why not pull up a pew, grab some tea and cake and tell us a bit about yourself and your current projects.........

Hey all,

Just popping in to post a snow angel update.

Thanks for all the comments about my dress, am hoping to order it this week!

Here is the angel,


Day 8, nearly done! by sk00bie81, on Flickr

I used flash to make the beads stand out Only got the rest of the 'lace' at the bottom to finish and the heart garland its holding.

Should finish tomorrow all being well! Then I think I'll bring Christmas cards into work to stitch, each one should only take a couple of lunchtime as they are simple blackwork ones.

Finished one letter on youngest niece's sign, two more to go! Trying to finish it as soon as possible so I can get on with the Blackwork angel :A

Hi everyone :hello: Just had a big catch up as it's very quiet at work today.

Got blood test back from the vets and Harold's kidney's and liver all ok, so that's good news. Just need to arrange having his bad teeth out and he should be a lot better.

Been working on Noahs Ark, still. A photo update is on the way, I promise. The next time I'm stitching I will take a pic at the end
