Amazing how this Forum has 'known' at least 3 successful designer/stitchers.
Off the top of my head it's Amanda G, Mabel Figworthy and Mr X Stitch!

:oops: apologies to anyone who should be in that list and I've forgotten! :oops:

Yes there is another young lady on here who has had her patterns printed in several mags too, if i recall correctly Amanda G gave her some advice when she was starting out and she has gone on in leaps and bounds BUT my almost 50 yr old brain will not come up with her name :( lol its just popped in my head Shannon Wasilef i think anyway well done to all the lovely people who design for those of us who love to stitch :)

He did indeed. If I remember well, he was the founder of the pub, too :D
