Ruth you are naughty, I've not picked wall paper ........ But I have picked another 3 cross stitch designs
Sorry...:o I was browsing B&M site after realising we now have one a few miles awayand I spotted them. Really like the sign design myself, but wouldn't know where to put it here. Then all the London talk made me think of it. There's so much wonderful London themed stitching around. You must be spoilt for choice. What other designs have you been eyeing up?
Soulie-well done for calling today. Best to be careful. Hope you feel better soon.
Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend. :EasterBun :easter_osCross Stitch Cafe Monthly Challenge Member #27

Welcome to the Cafe natzini - don't forget we love to see pics of things you are working on.
Thank you! I'm currently working on the Kokeshi doll card which was free a couple of Crossstitchers ago, but I've been struggling with my wrists so had to give it a break yesterday
I post pics of some of the things I stitch on my Instagram - if any of you would like it, just DM me

Morning everyone
Soulie - hope your temp is under control now. Take care of yourself. x
natzini - hope your wrists ease soon and you can get back to your stitching. DH and S-i-L have to wear wrists splints some times but I dont know how easy it would be to stitch with them on.. Sorry to show my ignorance but what is Instagram - is it a bit like Photobucket and Flickr??
Can I add to the London topic - got one wall of DS's bedroom done in the wallpaper and we are over the moon with it.
Having another easy day today at home. It's our wedd ann (35 yrs :eek:) - gosh I used to think that people who were married for that long were really really old. We are having a couple of days away in a few weeks for ann and DH's birthday - can't wait.
Got a little bit of stitching done yesterday. Have tracked down the words/wine bottle chart in UK but it is unavailable atm so I'm going to ring them during the week to see when it will be ready to order. I thought I would rather get it from uk rather from abroad (to save p & p really). If anyone spots it in uk - please point me in the right direction. This is the one btw
Hope you all have a lovely day.

Morning all :wave: and Happy Bank Holiday. Shame we can't have one of these every week !
I'm determined today to actually do something for me as the bank holiday so far seems to have got lost in tidying/spring cleaning and cooking. I'm also very excited about the new Jonathan Creek this evening. Looks like its on at 9pm now though instead of 8.30pm?
b_e_g Happy Anniversary ! I hope you have a lovely day.
Re Instagram ... I think its like FB for photos?
What does everyone plan on stitching today?0 -
ohhh BEG now you've done it.......... i want to stitch the tea and chocolate one and you know what - if i find the english site (not looking hopeful) I think I just might!!!!!
not a Jonathan Creek fan myself.
Soulie - hope you feel better soon. I'd be the same as you "noo I'm not feeling poorly yet!"loves how my "I've been censored" signature has been censored. LOL. Happy Christmas. :xmastree:0
