I have found the cross-stitch I want to do for my grandparents xmas it is a dimensions, sunset design and is called 'Grandchildren are flowers' the item number is 13705...I can find it on ebay but don't want to pay that much for it as don't know what RRP is despite saying on ebay that the RRP is Â£27.99..I have seen this for sale on only one website and this was an american one and was going for $20.00...Can anyone think of any websites that I haven't tried that could possibly stock this kit? I phoned my local craft shop but they didn't have their list so I'm starting to think that it may actually be a discontinued kit and if so then I'm going to have to 'bite the bullet' so to speak and pay for it off ebay as I have totally fallen in love with this kit and know my grandparents will adore it just as much.....PLEASE, PLEASE CAN SOMEONE OUT-THERE HELP ME!!!!!

Thanks

I've tried google and I've tried Ask.co.uk but nothing much is coming up which makes me think it might be a discontinued kit.....I'll use all the links that everyone has given me and if anyone else out there knows of anymore it would be great to know...

Thanks again everyone

I just sent an email to Dimensions asking where we could purchase one. They sent back a message that they will answer in 3 - 5 working days. Keep you posted!

If your ever stuck again for a Dimensions kit, just phone Coats Craft in the North East. They should point you in the right direction. They are also good if your chart gets ruined or you run out of thread

Hi

I dont know if this will help now since youve already had so much advice. I was recently looking for a chart and could only find it on an american site. It was cheap, but they wanted a huge amount for postage which made the total cost ridiculus.

I emailed sewandso, as Id seen on their site that they would try and find other charts and kits. They were able to order my chart from america at a very reasonable price, and postage was very good too. Plus they replied within a day or two, which I thought was quick. I find their site very competitive for stuff anyway, plus they stock tonnes of beads and accessories, and speciality threads at the cheapest prices ive seen anywhere (so far). They base their postage costs on weight so its very cheap when just ordering threads or beads.

If you dont need to use them this time, keep them in mind for the future.

Good luck getting the kit you want, it sounds like an excellent choice of gift for grandparents
