    I subscribe to both WOXS and Cross Stitch Crazy. I remember (just about) buying the first issue of Cross Stitch Crazy and I have subscribed on and off over the years. I don't mind the magazine but there is something about it I don't like. I think WOXS is my favourite mag. this seems to be the only mag that has stayed true to the craft. Cross Stitcher (my previous favouirte) has (I think) become more of a craft mag with cross stitch themes


    ^^Agree with all the above. I have subscribed to WOXS for years and always been happy with it. Ditched Crosstitcher last year when they completely changed their format.

    I currenty have CSC on the 5 for £5 offer but will stop that after I see if they print my letter lol. I also have Cross stitch card shop on a similar offer just now.

    Yay it worked :) I know what you mean about BD it does look like real fur. I was hoping to have the top completed by the end of 2012 but i don't think i'll manage it, i'll have to post a photo of it unfolded so you get the full effect. I promised Louise she would see BD's eyes next year :rotfl:

    Thanks for the advice about the mags, i'll try WOXS :)

    congratulations mrs m-p i love that kit.

    I thought I'd won top prize when JCS1's parcel came today.....ekkkk. HUGE hugs to her. can't play tonight tho things to do :(
    1) update the finance spreadsheet - check - that was easy.
    2) clear my surveys inbox......right limiting myself to 1hour.....go.....check.
    3) either re-wrap DS1's christmas pressies in the correct paper or pick up my DO homes..............hmmm tough choice......I think DOH is wining at the moment..... perhaps I may even leave the surveys till the morning?
    loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:

    And I will hold you to it :D It' s looking lovely and fluffy though.:T

    I got my meerkat finished at last - I had a night off from Christmassy prep and my mum, sis and I Sat and watched a Christmas movie and had a glass of wine :) My sis was telling me that the company her partner works for has messed up the wages - he got £1.94 paid to him for a month's wage and they just said sorry, it will be in with your January pay :eek: He told them on Fri to stick their job and starts a new one tomorrow:T

    I'm planning a trip to M&S tomorrow to try and get those chocolate cracker desserts that have been on tv- what' s the betting they are out of stock?
