Hi Everyone, it's been awhile

Hi Everyone, I used to be a more regular feature on this forum, but I lost my stitchy bug for a few years (can't believe it's been about 3 years since I last posted a stitchy update). I've stitched a few things in the last 3 years, and I've still been buying lots of stash (it's totally an addiction)...

Mabel featured in Stitch magazine again

Just picked up the current issue of Stitch today on a whim, and the first design in it is from our very own Mabel. It's her lovely peacock feathers.
Does that make tree designs in stitch now or did I miss some during my absence?
Either way, congratulations Mabel :balloons:

Re: Counterfeit DMC floss from eBay

Most of the cheap DMC I buy on eBay has "not to be sold in the EU" written on it, same as the DMC I've bought from 123 stitch in the US. I find this a bit annoying, that DMC make us EU people pay more....anyone know why?? Niki x The not for sale in the EU thing is because some of the dye ...

Re: Big things have happened in my life!!!

Congrats Kjersti, that is a big move. Can I ask which town you moved to? I'sguess Båtsfjord by the map but wanted to ask anyway. I used to live up there myself, in Vardø and Vadsø for my last years at videregående. My mum is from Kiberg so a lot of my childhood was spend up there :)

Re: Xandra's Chatelaine - Sleeping Beauty's Castle 27/06 upd

I've finally finished Part 1 (sans the beads), it took such a long time doing the cross stitches (I found them unbelievable boring), while the specialty stitches only took 2 hours or so (the 36 tiny Jessica stitches took up most of that time). More Jessica's in part 2, think I might get quite profic...
