  • Hi everyone. I love cross stitch. I have done quite a few and am onto a popcorn calendar at the minute and nearly finished. Hope you don't mind me joining in this thread. Am now going to undertake the mammoth task of reading through all the posts. Hope to speak to you soon.

    OMG Skiergirl, that is so kind of you. Thank you very much.

    We also make Seakings which are there so that will do nicely.

    Maybe then Daniel will be safe from the permanent marker!!!

    I'd like to add that they did do it on acetate, they didn't actually deface him completely :rolleyes:

    Thanks again for the link :A

    I have just found out the paperwork and I underestimated how long I had the designs, brought it in 2000:eek: . It was from a company called W E Design but unfortunately am not sure if they are still trading as cannot find them on the net and the telephone number is no longer current. The link that Skiergirl has added looks very similar.

    Just had a look on ebay but no Lynx unfortunately but did find a Puma which he also worked on at some time, so may have to get that.

    What is a popcorn calendar?:confused:

    Thanks P.

    Puma was ours too. I keep looking for a Lynx whenever I find a new site but have not had any luck so far. Hadn't thought of ebay though, I'll take a look in a few days and see if anything comes up.

    Thanks for taking the time to try for me though.

    I just wanted to add that I haven't used this company myself, so I have no idea if they are trustworthy /reliable, but I couldn't find anything on the usual sites I use.
  • http://www.candamar.com/detail.cfm?ID=137 this is the last big picture i did. Lots of french knots to keep me busy. Owing to the uni course i am doing i only manage small kits now but when that finishes i am planning to do lots more

  • Wow LLL, that kit is fabulous (and I wouldn't call it small)

    I currently have two projects on the go one is a Country Companions hedgehog on a motorbike - looks just like me!

    The other is a chinese one that my ex-fiance bought me at Olympia two years ago. It's called the wedding and I'm finding it really hard to finish as there is no wedding!

    It's in a circle about 18 inches in diameter and I've done over three quarters of it so could probably finish it in a matter of weeks if I put my mind to it. Have become rather addicted to knitting over past few months so cross stitch has been put on hold.

    Did quite a bit of my bikerhedgehog whilst in Scotland recently as I only took hand luggage on the plane, so no knitting needles allowed!

    Happy stitching everyone x
