Re: Garnet's works-in-progress update 30.8.18
Love the bright sweet peas Garnet & Wuthering Heights is coming along nicely. :applesauce: As regards books/subjects, we all have our own choices, part of life's rich tapestry. If we all chose the same theme life would be most tedious. I have read the Bronte books & enjoyed them. Enjoyed Dr ...

Re: Sina's stitches 2018
These are really beautiful Sina. Yes the shrine will look great when the temple is stitched as the half stitch you have done as the background makes the main part of the picture stand out. That is what I have found with Dimensions kits anyway. I looked at this design a few weeks ago, it is going to ...

Re: Time to Grow - M Sherry design.. latest news

Re: Loop start from the front of your work
Did it this way for a while but when I had to frog stitches it meant needed to cut thread off needle but I continued using this method for confetti stitches. Added bonus of this method is as thread length is shorter not so much twisting. As Wendy said when doing a stitch with a single thread for eff...

Re: Time to Grow - M Sherry design.. latest news
Thank you both. In the last 3 or 4 years have needed new glasses each time instead of every few years. Have some Anchor cottage kits in my stash & also some nice charts. Will sort out a couple of the charts before I tackle cottages. The Anchor cottages I have are the one Garnet has done of Seaso...

Re: Time to Grow - M Sherry design... latest , sorry
An update to say had to bin this. The white thread on pale blue Aida was making my eyes sore. Tried over several days but no good. Sorry folks. I am disappointed but don't want to strain my eyes. Even using magnifier my eyes became sore the next day so another one bites the dust!! My eyes are not as...
