Hi all,

Been lurking lately but I just had to post this....

It's a pic of an Iphone app, not sure how good it would be but it looks interesting.

Hi all,

Been soo trying to get DOH finished my facebook/ MSE time has been lacking.
I have until about the 20th (this'll give her time to get moved and settled).

Almost finished page 3.............. (have done a few more stitches since this was taken and about to start the last page).

this is looking really good ! ps are you stitching it on magic aida (and what size count material???)

chickywiggle

thanks, yup i had to 'cheat' with this one, couldn't be bothered to write it on myself and it wasn't much more expensive to buy magic aida than normal. 14ct magic aida.

It was awful all split stitches etc, I used a sharp needle in the end rather than my stitching needle and it was easier and I did manage to follow the lines fine. I found it easier than tatty teddy back stitch though lol
