Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

I have a confession ... I feel like a traitor ... I've joined another forum :oops: :oops: :lol: :lol: Of course, nothing replaces this marvellous place, but I have signed up to a Chatelaine forum, mostly to see others' versions of the Mystery Stitch to ensure I'm doing the right thing :lol: I had no...

If you don't fancy biscornu, what about little ornaments? Make little pillows by whipstitching two sides together, stuff them and hey presto! You could put lavender or similar in them to make it a pot pourri bowl.

You have done some lovely projects. I particuarly like the Artecy silhouette.

Great colours & love that new filling stitch. (You're too modest calling it a twisted bead stitch, you should call it Ilke's stitch!)

I agree. I want to do the cats in the coffee mugs, that Mabel made into coasters. They'll all too cute. X

You've done loads!!!
Fabulous colours. The vibrancy of that purple/indigo is stunning!

We love a bargain !!! Well done.

Some lovely work here, Kell.

Lovely design & great progress! Love your crochet flowers too, they'll look stunning as a scarf!

Hi Charmagne. Great finishes. My favourite is January #4 - looks like a Margaret Sherry?

Very pretty. Has Charmagne seen this one?!

You're right. There was a correction in the magazine a month or so later about this. You seemed to have got it sussed though!!

Serinde, I have been meaning to post on this thread to say how wonderful your pieces are. You are so talented!! I wish I could stitch like you. Your attention to detail is quite inspiring.

Sorry you had to frog, but I agree you would've been annoyed by it forever if you hadn't.

This is a lovely design, beautifully stitched.

How large is this going to be? Quite big!! About 10"x20" I'd say. I've just taken a good look at Pt3. Phew! I've my work cut out!! Lots of speciality stitches, a ton of metallic, plus one or two good old whole cross stitches. Don't exect to see this part finished any time soon :lol: :lol:

Great find & a bargain too!!

That really doesn't bear thinking about!!
