I don't think I have posted any pics since January

I have ony been doing card sized designs as I have lost my mojo (and have been incredibly busy) but I started the 'Cross stitch quickies' series of Monkey in CSC (DD got the monthly fairies so DS2 wants monkeys)


First two monkeys, and some borders prepped:



Some card designs. I really liked the word cloud ones from this months CSCardShop, they are a good size but easy to do. I foud the 'pixel princesses' online and DD liked them so we are going to make them into birthday cards for her friends:

Sorry the pics are so large, I'm not keen on the new 'upgraded' photobucket. The old one had the pics the perfect size to post on a forum without distorting the page .

It says
This design was originally published in the out of print September/October 1994 issue of the Stoney Creek Counted Cross Stitch Magazine.
I may have the magazine but I don't know when I can check - I have a house full of visitors tomorrow for Mother's Day.
How urgently do you need the pattern?

Happy mothers day everyone x

I LOVEEEEEEEE the birthday word ones, will have to see if I can find them online, would come in handy as they look like they don't take long to do. And I like the pixel princessess too!

Hi ladies.

Winnie. Hope your little one is better by now. Nice update, it's coming along nicely.

Mrsmp. Oh blimey! Hope your sons arm heals real quick.

Louise. No need to apologise about the emails, it's not your fault. I have no idea what hackers get out of it either except a bigger audience for their spam.

The monkeys are cute already! The card designs are lovely too, I especially like the cocktail glass and the cake.

RE photobucket. I'm sure that I had a link somewhere when logged in, something along the lines of 'switch back to the old version of photobucket' but I just went to have a look and can't see it, maybe because I have used the new version for so long they figure I no longer want the choice of switching back.

Soulie. Love Eeyore! The frame is really nice too.

Elle. Very nice finishes. I especially like the Christmas card. Is it hand stitched?
Look forward to seeing Japanese Ambience framed.

Caroline. Nice finishes.

Sweetcarer. Purplework is coming along nicely, I really like it.


As for me. Cats *should* be finished this week!
I'm undecided what to do next though. Not sure if to do the lovely birdtable design or a christmas one (I have all materials needed and ready for a choice of 3 or 4 designs) I think at the moment I am leaning toward a christmas one because I'd really like to have something done ready for display for next christmas that I have stitched myself and at the leisurely pace I stitch at, I need to start now :rotfl:


*off topic*
Do any of you use the shopping money back apps? I'm using shopitize, snap and save from topcashback and clicksnap from quidco. I only started in the last couple of weeks and already have something like close to £10 across the 3 accounts!

I am having a ruthless magazine clearout.......Have figured they yes I might like a design in a magazine but will I ever really stitch it/ have anyone to stitch it for? probably not so it may as well go to a new home.

Remember if you are having a mag clear out keep a look out for my zodiac pattern, please?

It is from an early issue of a magazine for stitching and I think it was in needlepoint not cross stitch.

If anyone else is having a mag clear out or can remember the name of the magazine - much appreciated - I know its not cross stitcher or cross stitch collection or needlecraft magic - have them or bought them as said "seller" on eb*y said they did have pattern only to receive mag and it not.

Don't mean to be rude,

Thank you.
