Re: Where has everyone gone?
I still look in from time to time but the past couple of years have been taken up with fitting in magazine design work between helping out elderly parents. My father died last year and his last four years were hard for all of us (dementia and bowel cancer). My mother recently moved into an assisted ...

Thank you stitchers
Some years ago, I joined this site and asked for stitchers feedback about things you liked (or didn't like!) about cross stitch charts. One thing that many of you mentioned was symbols used in charts, especially the ones you didn't like that were a little difficult to read or that looked similar to ...

Re: Mouline Etoile
I think Sally may have already shared a link to my review of using these new threads but I've copied and pasted it below if it's of any help. I'm not keen on using metallic threads as I find they tangle and split but these new Etoile ones were much easier to use. There are photos on my original blog...

Re: Where has everyone gone?
Thank you for your kind words. My dad had dementia and many health problems but it was still a big loss when he passed away four weeks ago, even though we had expected it for the past few months :( I think the build-up to the event was just as traumatic as the end, as we had spent a long time waitin...

Re: Where has everyone gone?
I'm still here but got myself locked out as I hadn't visited for so long. I am like Mags who posted last year and have also been dealing with family bereavement which does tend to crush the creative side a little.

Hi All,
Thank you for all of these lovely comments. I have been locked out of the forum for a while as I couldn't remember login details but I've now managed and written them down......what I should have done in the first place really!

Re: dreamcatcher copyright theft good news!
After many emails to and from VeRO (the copyright infringement dept of Ebay) they have finally acted. They were quite obstructive and kept asking for "more explanation" even after I had sent them numerous explanations of the copyright infringement. This went on for around 3 weeks and they ...

copyright theft
Hello fellow stitchers, A couple of years ago I shared a "free to download" mini dreamcatcher chart on my blogspot. It is still available to download from there. I have just discovered that someone is selling my dreamcatcher chart on Ebay as a kit. They are selling them for £4.99 each, wi...

Hi All, I don't get as much time to check in here due to work commitments but I thought I'd let you know that there is a free chart of primroses on my blogspot if anyone is interested and would like to make use of it? It's grey and drab here in the UK so I chose primroses to remind us that spring wo...

Thank you for the message about the owl. It is great to see he has been used and hopefully will be well received
I also love your angel, that is a beautiful piece of stitching and a work of art to be treasured.
