Zoe is an angel. Thanks sooooo much!

It really made me teary when I was reading it. I just love the Gorjuss girl even more now, and that buying it will in some way help Suzanne, as Mr.G said they were struggling for money. You can't help but feel a bit guilty. I saw the suitcases on the shop page were very inexpensive and look ideal fo...

Hi Zoe. Well I like stitching animals, or scenes. But I have done various things so far, mostly small. Not had the means to do big ones but definitely wanting to get going once I've got the stuff needed. I would be very happy at anything you could offer. xx

I do! I prob won't stitch it, even though it is sooooo cute. lol. Am willing to swap for something...You decide.....

Thanks everyone. Well the little rabbits were the first 2 that my OH stitched, and the frame was a freebie with a mag, they were the perfect size so I popped them in. As we have no friends or family that we are in contact with, we have no one to share them with, so posting on here is my way of shari...

Thank you sooooo much everyone, it's lovely of you to take the time to look, and even better, comment. Much appreciated, and I'm glad you like them. xxx

PM'd a while ago, and kit arrived safely. Very satisfied and will post updates/pics when done. Thanks again Louis.

Wow, some really great mini's. Lots of inspiration...

Just a quick q, how do I upload pics to this thread? Can't find how to anywhere? xx

Hi All, afew ladies have asked to see my completed projects, but have been to embarrassed to post pics as they are all quite small. Now plucked up the courage (lol) to add pics to my gallery. Please feel free to have a look, and leave comments even if they are bad. I have tried to find different way...

I subscribe to World of Cross Stitch (woxs) Cross Stitch Crazy, and Cross Stitcher magazines. These were taken out for me by OH, I had no say in it (although I think he worked out it was cheaper to subscribe than pay £4 x3 every month. Plus you still get the free gifts and the subscriber only pages...

Hi Amanda. Well, I like to have the tv on a music channel, again I don't have mp3's or ipod's etc, so its the tv for me. Also, it gives the eyes a break as you look up to see the screen every few minutes. I haven't tried stitching in silence (no such thing as silence here, my 2 dogs chase eachother ...

Well, I comfort teat, have tattoos and stitch, so what does that make me? lol. I often think to myself, why do people assume just because someone enjoys stitching, knitting, crochet etc. under the age of 85, they must be some sort of martian from the planet Zog? Age is just a number, a hobby is just...

Hi everyone. Was just wondering if anyone from UK watched tonight's take me out? There was a guy on there called Bamboss and he said he liked x-stitching! It sort of took me aback at first, A young lad who stitches, but then I thought, well, you really can't judge a book by its cover, and it just go...

They are both lovely. You should be pleased. Can I just ask how much professional framing costs? Always done it myself, but you def get a better finish with the pro's. xx

Couldn't agree more. 3 Cheers for Mrs MBK! xxx

I don't do facebook either. I don't like the format and I don't much care for their (ever changing) policies. I'll stick to the old fashioned ways of communicating, thank you very much. :D mechie Hear Hear! Or is it here here? lol. Whatever happened to good old-fashioned talking? Saying that, we do...

Lenne, I dropped the Cross Stitch Forum Facebook Group for the same reasons you mentioned. Links to sites with blatently pirated charts were being posted, and my e-mails to the Admin team regarding this got no response. I don't participate in any group that allows copyright violations, so I left. T...
