Cross Stitch Cafe 2016 - Spend Less and Stitch More

nmm

Mrs ceejay, it does the same to me using windows 10 and edge browser, maybe its a flickr issue? Or just certain browsers. I can see your pic from that link, very pretty I love purple. I don't do flowers either but i'd love to do a Sunflower as they are my favourite.

This is my next project,started it before Christmas.
I bought the kit off e.... ,not sure what to expect as it was coming from Poland,only thing different was, instead of cottons, I got skeins of wool but it is a crosstitch kit,so I just matched the colours from my own cottons,and all the instructions are in polish,
Don't usually do flowers,so it's a change,going to make it into a cushion for
my bedroom,the colours seem to match.
Still can't the photo to print from flicker,I have copied your instructions,get
To bbcode,it flashes grey and promptly disappears!!!so annoying

Your photo is beautiful. I love hydrangeas.

I can't get the instructions to work either

Love everyone's updates
Those hydrangea look very Spring like, I love the colours.
Winning the pooh looks very cheerful.
The Valentine choice cute.
And great progress on Sydney and the leopard.
Hope all are well.
Busy today but tonight I'll have a sort through my stash and decide on my valentines project.

Have a good day all

I think buying something you will stitch immediately and as a gift deserves a "free pass". It's not adding to your stash is it?

beg. I love your snowman

I love snowmen (as decoration I don't want any real snow)

In fact I have just made a cushion from a snowman round robin which was completed YEARS ago. The piece was stitched in England, Wales, Australia and South Africa so very well travelled. It's a poor photo which I've added to our Flickr group but I'm out tomorrow so won't be able to take a photo in daylight before Saturday. The fabric is light blue linen which doesn't show up very well

I've also added a photo of my 2nd finish of 2016. It's "All you need is Love" made into a cushion. Most of the cross stitching was done last year but the final 3 letters were done this month
