What a gorgeous cat! I have a blue British shorthair who loves sitting on my patterns.

Hi fellow stitchers. I would like to buy the G*H*I* The Prairie Schooler book no 104. My plan is to stitch the whole alphabet. It seems the G*H*I* book has sold out at most online needlework stores as it is an old pattern. I have been able to purchase the books for the other letters except this one....

I had a major fail with the HAED I started. I started it two over one on 40ct evenweave. I found it too hard/thick to stitch using two strands, so I stopped after stitching about 1000 stitches. I haven't started it again but will have to as I love the pattern I chose as it really spoke to me: http:/...

Congratulations. What a precious baby.

My local needlework store has a Lanarte Vera the Mouse "Dressing" kit up on their wall. Let me know if you want it and I could buy it and mail it to you. It is $41 Aussie dollars plus postage. It includes linen and thread.

That's a fab idea! Thanks for sharing

Hi, I have done a video on the Loop Method for starting cross stitch in my blog How To Tuesday series. Video link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLxIYeZJHeE I have also written a blog post about washing a large cross stitch project.

That's a fabulous design! The skull jumped out first to me and then I saw the other image.

Thinking of those near the fires especially Athalie.

Great tips! I only use a ruler on my original pattern to keep my place. Me thinks I need to get more sophisticated LOL.

Sweet. Are they listed on the Disney website?

I love your HAED choice. You have stitched the first page very quickly. It looks great.
Jan

What a fabulous and fun stitch. I can't wait to see more. My husband rarely looks at my stitching so it is different in my household. I hope you get lots done on Saturday

Hi everyone! Thanks for your lovely welcome. What a friendly board. I thought I would share photos of my WIPs. I am stitching a Bothy Threads Cut Thru'. This is the castle which is for my three year old boy. It is stitched on 16 ct light blue Aida. It is a fun stitch. http://i39.tinypic.com/rbi0cx.j...

Wow it's great! Happy Birthday also.

Have fun! I wish I lived closer to the UK. Enjoy!!!
