hello from Down Under

Post by xstitch_hubby »

Hi al :wave: l,
I have joined this forum, simply to see if someone can help me to find a particular cross stitch kit for my wife.

My wife has been cross stitching and collecting for several years. She now has almost 130 kits with my blessings and support 

She also now runs a popular YouTube channel about her cross stitch journey on both Floss Tube and Russian speaking YouTube.

She is mainly into fantasy world cross stitiching, especially wizards and dragons. She already has Dimensions Scarlet Wizard, The Buffalo Call and other smaller wizard kits :dance:

I am looking for Plaid Bucilla Heirloom Collection Cross Stitch Planetarius 45437 kit.

If anyone has it their collection and no longer wants it, please let me know.

Someone here will help find that pattern if they are able.

Hello and welcome from South Carolina! I do hope that you find the kit that you are looking for and please invite your wife to join us as well. Since many of us have huge stashes I am sure she will fit right in. We have a word for it: SABLE. Stash Acquisition Beyond Life Expectancy.

:wave: Hi and Welcome from me in chilly Brisbane. What a wonderful husband you are and I hope someone can help you find the kit your wife is looking for. Bucilla has some lovely kits for sure.

What part of "downunder" are you living in? I spent my first 70 years in Christchurch (NZ). moved to Melbourne to join eldest son 11 years ago and now live in Brisbane with DD and SIL :)

Hi all,

Thank you for such kind replies.

I do not think that i am in any way speacial, i simply support what my wife likes and what makes her happy.

To be honest, i have grown into liking cross stitch myself, yet i do not cross sticth.

I love the fact to hunt for a rare cross stitch kit and than wait when my wife will cross stitch it :)

here is her youtube channel link, its in russian, yet you will be able to see our stash and her current processes:

We live in Sydney, however we are both Russian.

Once again, if anyone can look around their local shop and see if they have Bucilla Heirloom Collection Planetarius 45437 available, it would make us very very happy! :)

Hello from Louisiana, USA. I found these two sites that appear to have the kit for sale. I don't know anything about them, so please do due diligence before ordering from them. Good luck! Let us know your wife's reaction if you find them.

Thank you Disney Stitcher,

I have looked at those websites, and i thank you for warning, as they look very suspicious, especially when if you order international delivery it asks you to pay with 'bitcoins'!!! :roll:

I guess that's the reason i am looking to buy from an individual, as this kit is no longer in production, perhaps someone has it in their stash)

Hello and welcome from Germany!
Maybe you can convince your wife to join us here, too. :wave:
I have started watching her Youtube channel, fortunately my Russian seems good enough to understand what she's saying. :whoop:
