Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Dear all, After lurking for years, I decided to give an update on my stitching project. I am currently (and the upcoming years 😋) working on a 32-count Zweigart, Antique white cloth measuring 1,8 m wide by 3 m long, full cross, 2 over 2 DMC. I am going to make a bedsheet for my 2-year old in an Efte...

Yes & no respectively Mabel. Everyone in our household is fully aware of the relative positions of cats & humans in the pecking order. Humans are not the dominant species in the view of any of us. Debby, Albert was, erm, unusual. OK, he was a one-off. It's not every cat that launches unprov...

Hi everyone, Just was thinking about a suggestion for stashmas. What if an easy, doable xstitch pattern in pdf was chosen. A pattern which forum members could buy for a small fee. And the mission is to make it your own, e.g. by adapting the pattern or colours or way of finishing. And to give it to a...

I have stitched a lot of afghans over the years. I started them because framing was so expensive and also because I would have a hard time deciding which chart I would want to stitch of a particular subject area. My afghans are mostly themed as I have given many as gifts. I usually would sort of &q...

After having read Mabels blog, I went with my little daughter to Pelgrimshoeve (a large second-hand shop) today and bought 30 dmc skeins for 50 cents each!

So happy! I am going to write down my missing dmc skeins and return to increase my stash!

Love it!

Thank you all! Welcome back :wave: ! Wow, that Efteling project is making me proper nostalgic - as a Dutch child of the seventies, that was THE place you wanted to go and it was magical! It still is, Mabel! Only after stitching Langnek, when I was collecting all the Efteling crosstitch collectables,...

Good morning!

Could anyone tell me how to / help me update the title of my post?
I change it by hand now, but I was wondering how to change it in the SAL board view.

Thank you for your help!

Dear all, It has been a while since I last posted an update. Life happened. However, I loved watching your progress at the forum. I finished ‘Langnek’ and I am going to frame it for my daughter so we are able to note how fast she is growing. I have started a new project by Thea Gouverneur featuring ...

Hi,

I would recommend a visit to an eye doctor as it can be a problem with the eye muscles as wel.

All the best, Maartje

Cute photo!
And the word pufferazzi

I sent you a pm.
Take care, maartje.

Look what I have found today in our American Bookshop!



Full of witches! Arghhh!

Take care everyone, I hope you won't be bothered too much.

Wow.. So fast! Do you stitch with both hands at the same time?! Looking forward to your next update (then probably nearly finished!)

Congratulations! Nice occasions to look forward to!

Wow... Starry night is my favourite! Beautiful, and a lot of work, too. I have been thinking about starting with 'cafe terrace' by van gogh... Seeing all those different designs just makes me greedy

Oh wow... Just love those colours. It's beautiful!
