Is there going to be a lot of backstitch in this one?

It's a HAED so there's no backstitch

I bought Mini Hannah Lynn to stitch for my sister and Mini Autumn Owl Trio, I hope Owl Autumn Colors will be available as a mini at some point in the future.

Thank you I've got what looks like a really delicious chocolate fudge waiting to be eaten but I'm stuffed from my meal out! Looking forward to enjoying it with a

Here are a couple of finishes: http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s441/cochonou14/Cross%20stitch/temporary_zps76b7fe92.jpg This L*K was stitched as a Birth/Christening present, her parents really liked it. I wasn't fully confident with how the blue for "Welcome Baby" looked on my chosen f...

I have the Calla Lily and looking forward to making a start especially after seeing your finished piece

I never thought to check what fabric came with it, to be honest I didn't know you had an option. Now that you've mentioned that it would be easier on evenweave I'm off to check!

If it's one of the new magazines they actually say in the magazine it was part of that there may be one missing and provided a key for anchor/dmc threads.

Actually if Annya Kai does anymore then my wishlist will certainly grow. I have 30 in my wishlist the majority being Spangler's but I'm surprised at the fact that I have 30 in there...I didn't think there were that many :lol: I hope that isn't a start of a set of stash that becomes unmanageable. I'm...

I like a few like Spangler's Dragons but there are a lot that I don't particularly like. Still the amount of time and work goes into it means we can still appreciate those that are stitched.

We are definitely finding out what we are having :lol: I would drive myself crazy not knowing how to decorate the room or what kind of clothing to buy. :lol: I can imagine, it also allows you to make a cross stitch more specific to the gender. I hope you keep us informed and I'm sure we're all happ...

Congratulations! Will you be finding out the gender when the time comes or would you like it to be a surprise?

Hobbycraft have some cross stitch kits on buy one get one free. They've updated/changed their website and I must say I prefer it this way...they've put kits up on there and plenty of other things. I used to be disappointed in the website as it didn't have half the stuff it has in store. Here's what ...

Lovely

I just had a quick look at one of the links you provided and apparently there will definitely be one of the Jungle Book. I do like these, not sure if I'd do the big or little ones though. Look they do pillows! http://www.mcgtextiles.com/Disney-Dreams-Collection-By-Thomas-Kinkade/Cross-Stitch-Pillows...

I would be more than happy to be a floss fairy for any of you guys overseas! That's a crazy price to pay...

If I'm not mistaken it's £2.05 for 5 skeins

Thank you everyone for your kind comments, I'm looking forward to working on February just need to put some stitches in on a secret stitch first. :applesauce: :applesauce: That is gorgeous Emma and so neat and even. Beautiful work - hope I can do half as well once I get some more threads!. :applesau...

Mabel, you can use this on the gallery if you'd like. All of my threads are Anchor and I used: 1, 130 and 131

The Harper stitch was well received, thank you for your lovely comments

I've been working on the poppies for a little bit and here is where I'm at now:

I've recently bought some sewing patterns and here's my first dress using New Look 6096, I would like to do it again in a knit fabric as well as a size 12 on the bottom rather than a 14. http://i1052.photobucket.com/albums/s441/cochonou14/th_P1060289_zps3e3f48bd.jpg I made the majority of this bag a...

It's really nice to see Amanda's excellent designs being truly appreciated. There is one which I think is perfect for shoe lovers out there on the subscriber's page in The World of Cross Stitching Issue 201. Congrats Amanda and keep up the gorgeous work! *Sorry if this has already been posted*
