The "no frills, no gremlins (hopefully)" cross-stitch cafe

fingers crossed this new thread has no gremlins like the ones taken up residence in the old one (will move everything accross after tea.)


As featured in Cross Stitch Crazy's Club of the Month.




Welcome to the Cafe's new thread.

Have you got some UFO's (UnFinished Objects) still to finish??

Setting yourself deadlines for stitching cards and pressies?

Half way thro a huge project and needing motivation to finish?

Found a fabby stitching bargain that you want to share??

Just really want to get something off your chest?? share happy or sad news, or just ask for advice without being judged?

Then grap a cuppa tea and come and have a moan, come a borrow ideas, or just look lovingly at everyone else's projects.

Don't forget to set yourself up a Flikr photo album account - and join the group over there to share your projects easily.

How to share your pics from FLIKR:
1) Go to the picture you want to show us click the 'Share This' button on the top left of the picture, this will show you a number of options and the one you need is called 'Grab the HTML/BBCode', Tick the button for BBCode and it'll convert the code to what you need.
2) Copy the text in the box and paste it into a new post on MSE and it should have everything you need to insert the image into your post. You can check this by clicking Preview Message.


We also have a facebook group here which is great for sharing discount codes/ fab links etc for any FB addicts.


This is a continuation of our 2011 cafe (which can be found here and here ) but don't worry you don't need to have actively participated in that to join us now.
and then our 2012 cafe - here
moving onto the 12/13 thread here
and most recently settling on the 'extend your to-do list' thread which got attacked my gremlins.


So what are you waiting for?? Grab yourself a cup of tea, a shiny new needle (as is the law with a new cafe thread) and share your latest project.

Please remember copyright rules are there for a reason. we are more then happy to share ideas and help out where we can however we have recently had a lot of people expecting copywritten charts for free or for members to hunt out ideas for them and then never give so much as a thank you. This really doesn't fit in with the groups ethos, please think before making requests. Please read post 10 if you are ever unsure about copyright restrictions.
