Re: Confessions of a Cross Stitcher

1. I absolutely HATE half stitches and quarter stitches!
2. If I make a slight error, I do not worry much. The old time quilters often left a small error on the quilt since only God is perfect.

Re: ISO: Cross Country Stitching magazine issues

They are from Jeremiah Junction, right? I have a few years worth. The only ones I am going to keep are the Christmas carol editions.
What are you looking for?

Re: Rainbow Birds counted cross stitch

I am so angry! I have had this item as a followed search on EBAY. Well, someone listed this kit for $25 but I was never notified until the listing ended. I have messaged the seller to see if perhaps it may still be available. :tantrum:

Re: Rainbow Birds counted cross stitch

Should have added that I think it is titled "Rainbow Birds on a branch". If you find it, please let me know and I'll do the same.

Re: Rainbow Birds counted cross stitch

Re: Feeling discouraged

Wait - do the stitch police come to your house to inspect the back of your work?

Re: Question: How do you handle a mistake?

I made the mistake of starting Ursula Michael's "Let's Wine". While I like the overall pattern, the fractional stitches in those grapes especially drove me crazy. But I did finish! Sometimes we need to remember that the stitch police are not going to scrutinize our work. Sometimes I need t...

Re: Somebody to create a chart from a quote?

I pay $12.00 a year for "crossstitch.com". I can choose the size font and the type font I want for sayings. I can center the chart and have no problem printing on my computer. Check it out!

Re: WAY OFF TOPIC! *Warning* Scary IRS stuff!

We have received refunds for years. My husband would rather have more taken out than have to pay. We have NEVER been penalized! We have used Turbo tax, HR Block and an accountant throughout the years.

Re: OT: Super Bowl Sunday

I watched but only for the commercials. The one I wanted to see was on at the very end - the puppy and the Clydesdale. The Doritos commercial with the girl and the mastiff was cute too. I didn't care who won - I am a hockey fan.
