Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Thanks to you all. I had a nice day.

I am thrilled to bits for you. Hope that the packing, moving and unpacking go smoothly. Gook Luck for your new adventure.

As going to a sewing machine shop is fraught with danger I would suggest that you sit down with the person and look on Amazon. You could look at what machines are available, evaluate their style, what they do etc and come up with a list of what the machine must have and what is important but not imp...

Thank you, I will have a look.

I love this forum and appreciate the way that members interact with each other. As I do other crafts as well as cross stitch I was wondering whether any of you could recommend other forums that are good. A knitting forum would definitely be of interest as that is my other real passion. Others would ...

There's another small one here of a trio of Meerkats. I've used this company many times and their postage is Very reasonable to France and probably would be to Spain! https://www.woolwarehouse.co.uk/needlecraft/mouseloft-stitchlets-meerkat-family-cross-stitch-kit Yet another cutie. I have to admit ...

Now that looks cute and it is a kit. Worth giving it a thought. Yes, I worry about what is and is not legit as I value designers and hate people who abuse their copyright.

I have been asked to do a cross stitch of a meercat. As this is not my normal sort of theme and is for someone I barely know I would prefer to do this as cheaply as possible so can anyone guide me to a free chart for a design that is quite small.

Thank you all so much for your good wishes.

I know that I did have a dragon alphabet but not sure if I still have it, I will look through my files tomorrow.

I've been buying my knitting wool from the wool warehouse for some years now and they are excellent :D I noticed a few days ago that they had suddenly got a needlecraft section but though nothing of it. Had a quick look but as we were going to be away for a couple of days I did nothing else. I was ...

Here is the website if anyone needs stash or simply to see what is available and their prices. I have nothing to do with the company apart from being a very satisfied customer.

I may well be reading into things that are not really there but here goes. I also read on FB about the closure and like you all I was disappointed. Had an e-mail from a company called Wool Warehouse who I have been buying wool from for a year or so and have always found them excellent. The message s...

Excellent, my favourite forum has been soo missed.

Thank you so much for your help and the offer to send me 157. I have 3840 and compared it with the other blues in the design and it will work very well.

Thanks once again

I am currently stitching an AOY that Faye kindly sent to me and one of the colours is DMC 157 which I do not have in my stash even though I have an extensive range of both DMC and Anchor. Can anyone tell me any numbers that are the best match to this because I cannot buy thread locally and I want to...

Can anyone provide me with information on any charities who I could sent oddments of thread to or anyone who stitches for a charity.

RosemaryH

I am so happy that you managed to restore my favourite site, I have been lost without my daily dose of sanity.

RosemaryH

Have a wonderful birthday. Celebrate being alive and who you are because numbers do not matter at all.

RosemaryH

Happy Birthday, have a great day.
