Re: Anne Boleyn - Wanted Tudor Collection

I have individual charts for Henry and each of the six wives (all with heads attached) :lol:

The designs are quite large and detailed and include use of Kreinik blending filament.

Re: Chart wanted - Floral Splendour by Elizabeth de Lisle

Was this design in one of the cross stitch mags in four parts?

Chart wanted - Floral Splendour by Elizabeth de Lisle

If anybody can furnish me with this chart I will be so very grateful. I lost the bidding on Ebay for a kit when it came up last year and Anchor no longer carry it as part of their premier collection.

Thanks in advance

Re: Where to start a big project?

I always grid , partly because I'm a bit of a perfectionist and partly to keep track of where I am, especially as there's a chance I'll get interupted in my stitching by the phone ringing at work.

2. The Henry VIII I am doing came from a stitching magazine several years ago with subsequent ...
