Re: HELP !!!

Well, I would certainly be yelling at the sellers... It says on it in English, that it's easy to understand... Not that it's easy to understand if you know Chinese. Since it's on an English site, they should mention that the instructions are not in English. :x

Beyond that, try to get ahold of the ...

Re: Daft question... but fraying...

I usually wrap it around the edge, so that half is on one side and half is on the other, running along the edge (if that makes sense).

Re: Darn it!!!

Yes, my dress was Asian Themed. This is a silk Chinese dress, made of a rather good quality silk, and embrodiered with the pheonix, the asian symbol of the feminine.

I'm mad for just about everything asian, although Japanese in particular.

Thank you for all your comments about my kitties as well ...

Sorry, BAP... Bad A** Piece? :oops:

It's coming along though. I finished what feels like tons, and only amounts to about an inch of actual coverage. I'll put on an update for you all just a bit later. I need to finish some house work, and my current thread first.

Re: HAED designs

I'm doing mine on 18 ct Aida instead. It's going to be huge, but it's turning out amazing. I love that I can actually see all the colours. I actually think that with mine, the individual threads might all blend too well into the background, if I was doing it at ...

Sorry, I just saw this one! It's gorgeous, especially with the black backing. I did it about two years ago but haven't gotten it framed yet. :oops:

Doesn't stop me from having it on my wall though, masking tape and everything.

It's a gorgeous set though. I wish I'd kept my copy of the chart as ...

Re: Are bobbins a bad idea?

tattyted, That's how I keep all my threads as well! I found that I could keep my threads that I was actually using on a ring for my project, and the others in a small box with the rest of my stitching.

This is what works best for me...The only thing I need now is new labels for them!

Re: Daft question... but fraying...

I just peel them away on small ones... I might end up using some of my honey's electrical tape for my current one though... It's just too big, and I'm afraid that too much will fray away before I'm finished. :doh:

Okay, so my computer was having trouble charging, but last night it blew completely. My Laptop is left with 4% Power, and we won't be able to fix it for at least a week and a half. This leaves me begging your indulgence, since I won't be stopping by much during this time (I have to use my husbands ...
