Magazine charts up for grabs! (updated 16/10/10)

[kell]

I take all the designs out of my magazines as soon as I've read them and sort them into folders, but there are a whole bunch of charts that I know I will never do because they're just not to my taste. I'd hate them to go to waste, so I'll list them here in the hopes that they'll appeal to someone else on the forum. I'm not asking anything for them, so this is your chance to get your hands on some stash completely free of charge - hurrah!

I'll be adding to the list as and when I get more magazines, so if you're interested in any of these, just let me know!

Thank you, that's very generous of you.

I'm looking for patterns that I can modify or combine to use along with the words from the 1st verse of Hymn of Promise (In the bulb there is a flower, in the seed an apple tree, in cocoons a hidden promise, butterflies will soon be free. In the cold and ___ of winter, there's a spring that waits to be , unrevealed until it's season, something God alone can see).

Do you think any of the country patterns you've listed would be suitable, if so I'd love to use them.

[talenaya]

Do you have them scanned?

Your Country Getaway - field flowers and butterflies scene by Lesley Teare might be suitable - I'll gladly send it to you if you think it will be of any use to you. PM me your address and I'll post it to you at some point this week.

[kell]

Do you have them scanned?

I don't have them scanned, but I'll gladly send them to you if you PM me your address. They're not designs I'll be doing so I'd rather they went to someone who might get some use out of them, even if they end up being passed on to someone else.

[coffee_freak]

if by scanned you mean copied...that's not allowed..she meant to send you the original chart in the mail..

there are some lovely sounding ones there!!

[talenaya]

Thanks coffee I keep forgetting about that.

I'll pop these in the post to you tomorrow, Talenaya. I hope you'll enjoy stitching them and I look forward to seeing your projects.

Could you tell me how big the poppy design is. The finished size on 14 ct if that is on the pattern. I would like a poppy design but not a huge one.

Everyone who's asked for charts so far, I'll be sending them out some time this week, so they'll be with you shortly. I'm so glad some of my unused charts will be going to other stitchers who can use them!

[lisa-b79]

Can I add to this.?Is that ok Kell? I have just spent the last weekend sorted through my charts and I also have loads to give away. Soe from about 3 years ago. I'll list them later on.

xx

[kell]

I don't see why not, Lisa, although it might be easier to have them in seperate threads we know who's sending them out - I'm easily confuzzled these days - LOL!

And just to let everyone know - I posted the charts out yesterday, so they should be with everyone shortly.

[lisa-b79]

thats a good point. I have baby brain at the moment so I'm easily confuzzled too!! xxx

[kell]

Yup - baby brain - common cause of mumnesia. Exactly what I'm suffering.

[socialsue]

If Lovely Laundry and Beautiful Biscornus is available, I would be interested.

Thanks,
