Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

Well, kind off! As I opened my copy of the World of Cross Stitching (the latest issue 262), I was surprise to see my photo on page 63, in the section " Where am I?" It is a competition where you send a photo of you on holiday, holding a copy of the WOCS.

I wrote an e-mail and sent the photo back in February and did not hear anything back.
Apparently, I won a prize but I haven't got it yet.
I will tell you when I get it. I am quite excited about it!

I have that magazine! Off to have a nosey! Well done Helene! xxx

Well done! I will have to buy a copy now

What fun to discover your win that way!! Can't wait to see what your prize is!

Thank you very much for sharing my enthusiasm!
The prize should be a John Clayton kit. I am waiting for the postman...
You will be the first to see it.

Congratulations!

Ooooh I think I have that magazine so I will have a look

I was in "Cross Stitch Crazy" some years ago, not a photo but I sent a request to the "Challenge Lucie" page

How wonderful for you Helene. Now I will definitely be waiting for the postman to bring my copy which should be today or tomorrow.
WELL DONE.

Well done!

We are famous!
It is good to know that we can contribute to the magazine and be published. I subscribe to the WOCS and really like it.
Do you remember the magazine Quick & Easy? It had great little charts in it.

Your famous and getting a prize too how exciting

Yes I do it was a lovely magazine, even the bigger charts were simple and easy to follow

I am glad that you remember it too, Greyhound Mum. It was the first X-stitch magazine , I bought. It was after an exam and I treated myself to a magazine. I tried the free kit, which came with it and never looked back. It was in 1996, I think! In the last century!!!

The last millennium, even
