EVEYTHING!!!!!!! Well not really as I don't like to stitch buildings unless they are in the background but I like so many different things that it is hard to say what I like it is easier to say what I don't like. :lol: :lol:

I agree with rose. It's hard to say cause I like to many designs.

I don't really have specific designers I like, but I can say I generally like anything to do with animals, birds, flowers, scenery/landscapes, butterflys/insects, Big cats etc.

What I don't like would be anything religious, holiday themed (christmas, birthdays, halloween, easter, valentines etc). Nothing nationalist either or even fantasy/faeries/fairy type of designs (Although funnily enough, love to watch others do them with the bling, beads and lovely colours etc).

Whatever that takes my fancy!! :roll: :D

Until recently I only did large pieces - but recently developed OBD. Obsessive Biscornu Disorder!! I'm loving making things that are finished in a few days!!

I don't do fantasy or religious themed things but love watching other peoples projects come to life!!

I used to stitch mainly Disney stuff but seem to have developed a fetish for coffee themed patterns lately. And desserts.

I've got my eye on several Art Nouveau/Art Deco designs at Sew and So. That could well be my next 'thing'.

I'll stitch anything that takes my fancy though. I like a bit of variety. I quite like to have different fabrics/colours/styles on the go so when I switch from one project to the next, it feels like something very different. Doesn't always work like that, mind :wink:
