Ah, will definitely miss you in this exchange Mags. :(
But I know what you mean with having so much on.

I have had a look at the bookmark books and drooling but I think I will wait a while as I have ordered more stash off Ebay. :roll:

I have picked my design, which I hope will work ok.

Not sure if I would join, I haven't finished a lot yet, and I'm not good at either.

I've been playing round with a few designs and now I have four to choose from, although I may well come up with more yet. Haven't quite decided what I'm doing yet...

Sorry will have to withdraw, just don't have the time at the moment to do any stitching with out trying to start this. Would have loved to join in as I am an avid reader, perhaps if there is another one and life doesn't get in the way

That's alright, maggs. We'll miss you. Maybe the next bookmark exchange... I think there will be another some time next year.

It will be a random sort, actually. You will not know who will be receiving your bookmark until the mail out date. On the mail out date, I will post a shuffled list of everyone in this exchange. You send your bookmark to the person below you and receive a bookmark from the person above you. So once the mail out list has been posted, you PM the person above you on the list with your full name and address.

Oooohh! Gotcha! Thanks for explaining Farhana, this'll be the first exchange I take part in on this forum :oops:

Right then, I'll stitch what I think everyone will love (or hope!) :king:

I think I've decided which of my designs I'm going to stitch, so I'll post the others on my Kincavel Krosses blog over the next week or two...

These are the three I'm not using, so if anyone else wanted to, they'd be more than welcome (and I'd love to post photos of them on the blog). You guys are getting first peak as they'll be appearing on the blog over the next few days...

I've decided on the one I'll be doing, so I've kept that one back for the time being, in order to keep it a surprise. ;)

Click on the images to be taken to the larger pic which can then be clicked on to make the chart larger:

I'll almost certainly be stitching these at some point in the near future, but not for this exchange... ;)

Is there anyone that minds if I use specialty stitches aswell? I have some lovely patterns I can convert to a bookmark, but it has mostly special stitches in it. (Since it's a cross stitch forum)
