FINALLY got the Cross Stitch Crazy mag with all of the snowmen in it and it is great. There are a ton of snowmen in there and they are all adorable. It came with some free threads that are very pretty I like the metallics color and want to use it on something. Really like the green not sure about the other two though.
I am thinking that the alphabet snowmen would make nice coasters as christmas gifts.
If you are looking for some one to help change you, look in the mirror

Kins that looks like a great pattern. But beware the BS on those is massive.

What I need most of all is extra bobbins
but help is always welcome too -- anyone for hot chocolate and silk-winding at my place?
