Re: FUJIAN by Classic Embroidery Update 21/8 Pg 2 DONE

This one is looking stunning Sally. It's been ages since I came on to this forum, and luckily I took a look just as you posted an update! My stitching bug is still missing, driven away by a crochet bug, but I have made a very small start on Rose Lights.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything fun in 2014

I received a very exciting parcel this morning from Sally aka Squirrel. All the way from Australia to the UK in less than a week. These are goodies that she had left over from her Chatelaine Rose Lights which I am hoping to start soon. Some of these goodies were proving to be very elusive here. http...

Re: Blending threads and tenting?

Hi
I love 40 count fabric! This is one I'm stitching 2 over 2 on 40 count linen. It's a Renalto Parolin design called Nell'aria.

Re: Has the Postman brought you anything fun in 2014

Some great stash being received! Squirrel we must have very similar tastes! I have Fujian in my stash. I bought it a few years ago after seing a stitched sample at a stitching show. I received this in the post this morning together with some glow in the dark kreinik and beads for the AAN Halloween S...

Re: My First Chatelaine. Update 16/1

:wub: :wub: :wub: Wow! I love Chatelaines but have always thought that they weren't for me. I think you might just have changed my mind! Severely tempted to buy this chart despite already having way to many WIP's already. I might be doomed!

Beautiful stitching.

Re: Needle poke under fingernail

I did this before Christmas, and just assumed it would clear up by itself. I have never known anything as painful as this injury - I sometimes felt either faint or on the verge of tears when I knocked it. I eventually went to see the doctor after 4 weeks of suffering, and have strong antibiotics to ...

Oooh! I love this one and must get around to starting mine. I'm sticking to easier things for a while as I want to finish my college work in order to free up my evenings.

Across Town Stitching

Hi I just wondered whether anyone knew of a problem with Across Town Stitching. I have only ever heard good reports about them, but I have a friend who ordered from them over three weeks ago and has not received her order. She has tried emailing them, phoning them and even texting them with no succe...

No progress on Abbey, because the chart is so difficult to read. :-( I have had to suppress my stitchy bug as I am desperately trying to finish my college course early. I have until June next year, but would be happier if I could get it done by Christmas and then my evenings will be all mine for sti...
