Hi again!
I do not speak russian, but a bit of bulgarian - similar enough for this purpose.
The Colour numbers on the website chart (3 digits) do not refer to the numbers on the pattern (4 digits).
Guess I will just have to wing it.
Thanks to everyone

Re: Ariadna vs Anchor
Hallo,
I can go by the Colours, especially as they are not unusual and only 15, but i would still like to know the "official"
thread Colours.
Danke,

Ariadna vs Anchor
Hello All!
On my travels through Bulgaria I came upon and purchased a printed design from the company Ariadra.
I have tried to find a floss Colour conversion chart to Anchor, but to no avail!
Can anyone point me in the correct direction?
Danke,

Re: How do you do a bookmark?
Hello-
I ditto the stitch & fray technique. Using a pre-edged piece if Aida is OK, but I seldom have one.
I have attatched other pieces of fabric on the back, but I find this makes the finished product a bit too thick to actually be used as a
bookmark.

Re: Too close to edge HELP!
Hello- This happened to me on my 1st big stitch. - All I could do was to stitch a piece of fabric on the edge. In my case, the cross stitches went right up to the edge with no room for a hem. :x Since this was put in a frame to hang, with care it all worked out well. :dance: Good Luck! William David

Yes, I did - I had a free day from work and the time to do it. It was not easy!
But it is very possible.
