The Goruss is called winter delight,a girl in ared dress and hat with black hair,if you want it send me a pms and I will send it on,that's if you don't mind it taken out of magazine. It not one I have any one to do it for.

I've not been on for a while as I'm supposed to be studying for an exam, so that is taking up most of the limited spare time I have and my latest piece is being sadly neglected It is also incredibly slow going! I think I've managed about 60 stitches, which are made up of something like 15 different colours, most of them blended threads :eek: And it all looks grey! I'd post a picture, but there's really not a lot to see at them moment :rotfl:

It's good to see everyone getting in the festive spirit. I'm thinking I'll make a little decoration for my tree, so I can have a little project I won't feel too guilty about putting the studying aside for, and also something I can have the fun of finishing since the main project will be a looooong time before its done.

It's so lovely to see Elvis all finished, pm2326, he looks amazing!

Sweetcarer it's always so lovely to see your updates. Your twisted band sampler is coming along so well, I think I'm going to miss it when it's all done.

Glad your move went well, nmm. The poppies look lovely.

JCS1, your cat is so lifelike!

And I just love the colours in your paradise island, Elizabeth, they're just stunning.

Mrs Ceejay, only a small amount of backstitch a few bits on the poppies to stand out and the tree trunks, I think that was it. Oh and a few French knots.

JCS1, that was quick, looks fab

Thank you all for the lovely comments.

I love maps,what material are you using?it looks very fine,is it going to be the oldie world or the new world?worth all the hard work.
I've seem to have so many projects on the go at the moment,none seem to be growing.
I want to finish a blanket,(double size) I must be mad!!! It's bin 21 degrs outside!!
Make four snow globes
Coat for the dog

Goodness knows when I will have the time as I was volunteered by DIL to look After DG2 two days til Christmas.
Better to be busy than sat idle
Happy stitching all.

hi all,
I've posted here in the past, but have had to put away the cross stitch for a while recently due to the demands of a baby! But today I finally managed to pick it up again, only to find that the pattern sheet has gone missing. I was wondering if any of you kind ladies would have the (fairly common) pattern.

It's this one: Quilt. It's a stamped quilt, so I have the basic info, but not the details of the colours. I could do it from the picture, but as I'm sure you know that would be quite annoying! I am sure the counted version for aida would have the same pattern.

Failing that, has anyone got a dimensions kit with the contact details for dimensions on it? Maybe they would send me a reprint.

Thanks!

Welcome time2deal, you could try here clicky it has contact details for replacement instructions. In the meantime, we'd love to see a progress pic, we love photos :rotfl:
