    I've sorted my stash over the last coiple of days and have some charts that I'm never going to stitch again so if anykne wants them pm me. For some reason my photos always go to the start of a post so will do a new post now for what I have available.

    The notebook in the last photo doesn't have the pattern or material or floss. The dragons toasting marshmallows and the 3 frogs are the remainders of kts so have pattern and bits of floss. The others are the original charts butmay have been pencilled over should rub off. If jnterested let me know.

  • I am lurking away in the background still, but no motivation to stitch at the minute. Will go catch up on posts and see if my bug has been hidden there...xx

    Morning all, thought I would pop in before work.

    mos the wolves are awesome, not sure I would be brave enough to try something that big! I also like the dictionary of love but am putting it on hold until I finish some bits.

    fos I like the needlework ABC, what are you planning on doing with it?

    mrsceejay The elephants look fab.

    alisb Henry VIII looks good, I have my eye on the bothy threads kings and queens-maybe not quite yet though as my wish list is huge!

    jcs The birth sampler is lovely.

    nmm BD is looking good.

    Panicking as I have just seen the time, hope i haven't missed any one.

    Thanks for comments on Henry, he was a joy to stitch and only took just over a week, which for me is fast.

    Update on the offer of patterns, the lady and the frogs in the top picture are now spoken for. The others are still available.

  • I managed about 20 stitches yesterday, every time I picked it up someone wanted something :mad:

    Ailsb I have posted a few pictures of the Wolves before but there wasn't as much done.

    Fos I love your sampler, it is going to look amazing once framed.

    Emily926 the wolves have been really easy as there is no back stitch which is great!

    I have so many projects I want to start, I was lucky enough to get the Titanic cross stitch and a Dimensions Sorrento Hotel cross stitch from the land of bay for about £4.00 each and I also have the Polperro stitch to get started. I mustn't start any others as I think my DH might divorce me otherwise!

    Now, do I do the hoovering or Xstitch.............maybe a little bit of Xstitch to motivate me to do the hoovering I think! :rotfl:
