I just wanted to say thanks to Rainmac for starting this thread and getting me back into cross stitch. I made a start on one of my kits on Sunday, I had forgotten how much I loved doing it!0

No probs, probably costing you money as well, sorry!!!
Have you seen this, I posted it on the Xmas thread? It's only little but very cute (made to add to a chocolate hamper)...

I knew I shouldn't have clicked on this thread!! :rolleyes: I wanna do cross stitch!! I remember my nan teaching me how to do it years ago and would love to pick it up again! Oh dear!!:undecided:
Any tips for someone who can't remember how to cross stitch but is interested in giving it a go!:beer: Saving hard for a brighter future!:beer:0 -
Well I've gone and taken the plunge!! I've just brought a little cross stitch kit from ebay!! :j It only cost £1.50 including the postage and as we are going to a wedding in August I can use it on their card! I'm sure I will have enough time to do it.
Here is the design...what do you think?:beer: Saving hard for a brighter future!:beer:0 -

How cute!
Can you link me to where you buy your coaster kits from please? (The plastic bit):heart2: Love isn't finding someone you can live with. It's finding someone you can't live without :heart2:0 -
I had a lovely suprise yesterday when I got in from work. The postman had bought me 2 lovely kits that I had won in a giveaway in a well known cross stitch mag:T . The kits are a biggish 40th anniversary one and a small card sized one but both can be adapted for any anniversary I guess. I love those free giveaways, I send off for them and forget them. This is the 2nd thing I've won from one this year....had a pack of threads not so long back too.:D£2 savers club. No.90. Aim £500.0
