Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

I am looking into designing cross stitch charts. I'm stuck as I don't know what the best theme would be to start off on. I want something easy to start off with so beginners can get started. I was originally thinking about children themes. Alphabet or numbers, but I am not sure. Please, please, plea...

I know this might sound silly but have you ever tried taking little bits and pieces from other cross stitches and putting them together into one big cross stitch.

This has worked for me many times in the past. If you know the sort of things they like, this just might work.

Good luck. x

Where do I like to go for dinner?... This is a tough one... I think I would have to say a decent Curry House. There is one near me called The Princess of India. It is decently priced and the food is out of this world. My question is... The three lions on the England shirt, where did it originate? :w...

Thank you very much for all your honest answers, I am still very unsure about the whole thing.
Hense why I asked you all for your advice.

Heartbreak Kid is another yum yum.

Hi all, I have been told by family and friends that I should set up a website advertising my services stitching photos. I am very interested in this, but my problem is knowing how much to charge for the stitching. I have been told to charge by the hour. When I stitched my pictures they took me 7 and...

My cousin got married last year. Because I couldn't afford the stupid prices of the gifts they wanted I asked if I could stitch them a wedding present. When they said I could I designed my own. It took me a couple of months to draw and 5 months to stitch. It had beads sewn into it and a netting for ...

Does it have to be just christmas cards? Could it be birthday ones as well or any other?

Will be looking in my books for ideas, what address do we send them to?

I do the same thing.

I try to do the half stitches with the rest of the stitching but sometimes it doesn't work out that way.

I have to agree with Serinde. I cross stitch every evening, it helps me forget about the day I have had if it has been a bad one (working in a coffee shop it is always a bad one :) ). My partner and I watch films together while I am cross stitching. I have tried knitting and crocheting, but neither ...

I love cross-stitching because I find it relaxing and when it comes to my birthday or christmas everyone knows what to get me.

It makes life a lot easier for them and I am never let down by any present I get.
