Very pretty Kerry

Kerry, that one is lovely , I love those colours, but yes it's not as comfortable to use as aida or linen etc.

Thanks for the comments, yes it was West End Embroidery. I must admit some more of their designs are on my wish list now too

Thanks All, it's great to be back.

Susan, I recently treated myself to Jane Greenoff Cross Stitch Design software and this is my first go at creating something myself - glad you like it thanks.

Thanks Freelady and Ali-cat

Yes Ali-cat I do have a cat and that saying is just so true isn't it, I've just added my cat as my avatar, she's called satan but she's lovely really (most of the time )

I recently went to a stitch and craft show at the NEC and found some canvas work kits. I'd not done this type of stitching before but I love it and the results are quick... so quick in fact I actually finished it! (unheard of for me, nearly everything is consigned to the UFO pile at some point or an...

Thankfully I have a bit of time on my hands at the mo so I'm looking forward to it. Here's what I'm working on at the mo http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk8...

Lovely work mags, I particularly like the sepia piece - looking forward to seeing the next one.

Wow I love this. Well done Sarah

Mmmm stash - I love it! Being a true hoarder I have quite a bit - cross stitch is the biggest, but then there the patchwork stash, candle making stash, tapestry stash and card making stash, not to mention the cake recipe stash I am slowly building and the dress making stash I found whilst clearing o...

Thank you all for your encouragement! I've ordered the wools from Willow Fabrics thanks SusanF. Thanks Mabel and Serinde for your suggestions too, but I just went with the first one I saw! I have to wait now for them to be delivered as it could take up to 21 days from date of order - I'm very impati...

Hi All, sorry I haven't been around for a while. I have missed so much and everone has achieved soo much. I'm looking forward to looking through all the SALs.

You've done a great job - you must be so proud of it. So what's next??

It's second hand off ebay so I'm not sure - it looks like there's a name on it - Gobelin. Maybe thats the make?

Hoorah my stand arrived yesterday so I put it together last night and got the needlepoint fixed on to it. I'm itching to get back to the sewing now thank goodness but it's such a nice day here today I'm getting some jobs done in the garden and then having a break to cool down and catch up on here ev...
