Margaret Sherry Cat on Washing Line in Bra Hammock

Post by sascha22 »

Would anybody have this discontinued Anchor Kit, (Ref:Product Brand: ANCHOR - MPN: MSH0006) to sell. I would be happy with even just the Chart and Thread Key. Hoping somebody out there can help me. Many Thanks.

Margaret Sherry's cats are a hoot! Was this first published in a magazine? -- rootling around the intertubes makes me think it might have been, and someone familiar with the mag might know which one it is (one magazine certainly specialised in Margaret Sherry – Cross Stitch Crazy?). It might be possible to find back copies?

Thank you Serinde. I believe that this particular kt was brought out by Anchor as a stand-alone kit probably about 10 years ago. They appear to be as scarce as "hen's teeth". Half of the chart, (the top half) was actually printed in a Calendar which came with Cross Stitcher some years ago which I do have but the bottom part with the flowers was not part of the provided chart unfortunately.

There are two members who are trying to find new homes for lots of magazines and charts. One is westrnfan (http://www.crossstitchforum.com/viewtop ... 10&t=31329" target="_blank for example). I'm trying to find the other...!

I remember this one! Sadly I don't have it!! :(

I took a while to answer this as I was searching through my pile of patterns.
I have the Margaret Sherry Bookazine and thought that it might have been in that, but no! It was the two cats on a swing I have in that book
I remember the Calendar but again it wasn't one I had.

I shall keep researching though!

EDIT***

Whilst researching I read in the Bothy Threads
https://www.bothythreads.com/our-artists/" target="_blank that sadly Margaret Sherry has died. It says that her daughter has inherited the legacy left by Margaret Sherry and many of her designs will continue to be released both published and unpublished.https://www.bothythreads.com/" target="_blank

It might be worth trying to contact her through Bothy Threads https://www.bothythreads.com/" target="_blank and enquire if this chart is still available.

Hi, I have got the chart you want with the cat in the bra hammock.
It was in the 2003 calendar. Let me know if you still want it.
