Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Hi all I have been away for a while. I see many names I remember from the New Stitches days. In 2015, I decided working at the same place for 35 years was long enough and I retired. Since then I have been pretty lazy . I stitch quite a bit, have found a couple craft groups and book clubs. 2 of my gr...

I haven't been on here in some time. Actually, I just found a post I did in 2014. I was wondering if an actual finish to the band sampler ever happened. I love band samplers, but I really don't do a lot. I am doing one on a FB group.

She and the skirt are super adorable!

I made tissue box once. Maybe some ornaments. Oh, a fridge magnet.

Oh my goodness, these are serious cross stitch addictions, I loved all these stories.

Just came across this. Lots of cute stories. I didn't do anything clever, just a slight variation of my name. Kuschelschaf: your little pic is a "little cuddly sheep", perfect.

well FIZZBW you seem to be making good use of the new group. Glad to hear it. I think I would like a stitcher's group at a wine bar, but they would expect you order something. That might be an advantage to using the library, but I guess rowdy oldsters could be distaracting. I can't seem to be availa...

Those magnets are really cute thanks for posting the picture of the magnet. Might have to try to find some of these, or similar locally.

very cute

Can't believe I haven't seen this before. It is a good Christmas project. You will be able to display is this year. Looks really good.

All you need to do is the first stitch of the second row that way. from top right hole down to the bottom left. Then continue as usual. If you do your first row and do the second row below instead of on top, you won't have the pull out the stitch problem. Oh by the way, I am a lefty also, I don't th...

Enjoyed the pictures. Glad you enjoyed your trip. My daughter and I are going to England, the end of July. Tour is titled Downton Abbey and Downtown London. I am clueless concerning English geography, so I really don't know where I'll be. Gonna have to take time to really look at map. Maybe I can sp...

beats me....

wonderful

I think Allyn gives a good description of a way to guard against it.

Just a note to echo the previous posts. This is a beautiful picture. It should work up wonderfully. It will fun to watch it grow.

just tried out the dental floss cutter, worked fine. Don't see how that could be a problem at all.

on a different site recently, someone mentioned taking a dental floss container to cut threads..I've been planning on testing that out.

Ditto all of the above...

This is lovely. I'm sure she will love it.
