Been away a while…
My little boy was born on 29th June :) As you can imagine I've not had any time for CS, didn't even finish his Winnie the Pooh afghan in time (some of you may remember it?).

Re: Dumbo Afghan started 30/01/12 update 15Apr, pg5
the fabric (blanket) comes with the kit ready to stitch on. All u have to do is 'finish' it how u choose. Either stitch/hem the edges or fray it and knot.

Re: Winnie the Pooh afghan
I usually quite like backstitching but this is full of 'not in the hole' stitches which I find tiring to do! Plus the afghan,although the squares are big is hard to pierce, I might have to get a sharper needle!

Re: Winnie the Pooh afghan
First one is finished. The backstitching took two nights and was a KILLER. But its worth it I guess, it looks so sweet
Mmmm…just realised I've missed a bit of backstitch on the grass. Third night ahead

Re: Advice on Railroading??
Do you use a second needle to separate the strands as you're making the stitch???
I can't imagine how it's done using the needle that's got the thread in and making the stitch!!! Or am I missing something?
It's baking my noodle now

Re: Winnie the Pooh afghan
This is where I'm at after about 6 nights of stitching. Had to finish my cupcakes and my little girl's been poorly so not as far in as I'd hoped. Anyway this will be Pooh & Piglet sat back to back blowing dandelions
