Re: Squirrel's Stitching Update 8/8/18 A Pic as well
Finally I have some actual stitching to show even though it is only little cover kits from recent issues of World of Cross Stitching mags. I decided it was better to do a few more 'simple' small items than continue to struggle with these darned Christmas Stockings.
I am also waiting on a gorgeous cute birth announcement with a 'border' of Australian Bush Babies (as in koalas, kangaroos etc.) What is even better it is so cheap and I will have it tomorrow to print off my computer. It pays to check the designers web sites as often they sell direct as well as in shops. I will post on the Acquisitions site tomorrow.

Lovely cards...just right for those 'in between moments' whilst the weather or the health won't stand big complicated projects.

Your cards are beautiful Sally and beautifully stitched, well done.
I'm very intrigued by the Birth Sampler and can't wait to see it.

They are lovely cards and beautifully stitched, Sally! I also like the fact that they are very different from each other and can suit different recipients: the Rose is a classic card, a little Deer is a cutie and the bird has a "Spring feel" to it.

As promised the cover picture for the Australian Bush Babaies Birth Sampler is now up on our Deliveries and Stash Acquisition thread.
I can honestly say without a shadow of doubt it is the smoothest, fastest acquiring I have ever had. Dealing direct with the designer is much easier and quicker.

I saw it, Sally and I LOVE it. It is perfect and gender neutral.
It does make a difference, doesn't it, when it is so simple to order! ( a bit dangerous too...LOL!)Squirrel wrote:I can honestly say without a shadow of doubt it is the smoothest, fastest acquiring I have ever had. Dealing direct with the designer is much easier and quicker.
