Yes, I have the 36 ct. linen and the hardanger on top calls for 25 ct. Dublin linen in platinum. I did stop by there today after work, they do have some 25 ct. linen, but only white and raw in any sort of quantity. So, I'm thinking of heading up to Denver to go to the Stitching Shop up there....even...

We have one local shop here, which is mostly dedicated to quilting....if I can't find the 25 count linen there (which is kinda doubtful) this might have to wait till I can find time to drive to Denver

Thanks Karen, as a last resort, that's what I might have to do.
But there's nothing like seeing the linen colors with your own eyes too! LOL

Okay Ladies, I have a unique problem.....I want to start "Christmas All Through The House". It's a cross stitch piece with a hardanger piece on top of it (i'll try to attach a pic). and the linen sizes are 36 ct. linen for the cross stitch part and 25 ct. for the the hardanger part. I'm no...

Hi All....it's been awhile

but I have a little problem I'm hoping someone here can offer a bit of advice on.........

I started a punchneedle kit and for the life of me I can't get the stitches to stay in the fabric

any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Precious Moments patterns are always cute for baby related ornaments. Gloria & Pat have several books with mini's and ornaments.

I don't, just wanted to say:

OMG that is cute!

And I'd do the hat, ball & stocking top in Fuzzy Stuff thread.

Where did you get the blanket - it's fantastic! x I did a quick search this morning....that was harder than I thought! This is the only one I could find that was close to the one I did above: http://everythingcrossstitch.com/baby-afghan-natural-mrp-p30109.aspx?k2=y3" target="_blank" ...

Baby stuff and Christmas....there's never a shortage of this kind of stuff! LOL Lorrie Birmingham has got some really cute baby patterns and there's Precious Moments by Gloria and Pat .

interesting....wonder why my pics were removed....

oh well, hope you find what you're looking for Rose and very interested in seeing what you find!

Thank You for the nice compliment Myst! I think the key to having uniform loops is the needle...I was taught with a small piece of tubing on it that stops at the same length every time. I will try to post a pic of what I mean, hopefully tomorrow??? and Leroy, snow & rain? yuck...you guys on the ...

I've done a few punch needle projects.....I first learned 'how to' at cross stitch camp in Tulsa, Ok. It's fairly easy once you get the tension in your fabric just right, it needs to be extremely tight in your hoop. And fabric matters, I believe I was told the best is a muslin. I attached a pic, the...

Wow....I went thru all of my "alphabet" books and came up with nothing. But when I searched google, I did find some interesting fonts that could be charted easily enough. http://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b615/lytehouse2205/sew%20stuff/60font_zpsb25925f1.jpg http://i1294.photobucket.com/...

The afghan is a work of art Sarah.....and how I wish you lived in the states. It's a rare combination to see another woman who rides a motorcycle and stitches! We are truly unique

I went thru all my DMC, but came up empty. Good Luck with your search.
