Hi I'm Jennifer...new to the forum, can't wait to see everyone's projects. I learned to cross stitch years ago, but haven't had a project in works for some time. I recently completed my first mini biscornu (which lead my to find this forum) and I'm totally hooked. Now I need to find a my next project...any idea's where I can even start looking? Happy to have found you and looking forward to learning and sharing many more new projects. Happy Stitching!

Hello and welcome to the forum. :)
What sort of thing are you looking for as a next project? Do you want something big, something more challenging stitch wise or a particular theme like maybe wildlife?

Sewandso have some lovely kits and charts:

If you like more sampler type things:

Or if you're up for a challenge in terms of size:

There's lots of other places as well though, depending on what you're looking for.

Funny I get that alot, I've had ppl ask me all the time...why Olive? I don't look anything like Olive from popeye :wink: I'm pale skin, but blonde and blue eyes.

As far as projects, your right I think that might be the issue there are so many options now a days it's hard to pin point where to start. I'm thinking I would like a Angel project for my mom...she has just recently lost her boy friend in a tragic accident. She could use some extra Angels right now...so that's what I'm on the hunt for.

I can't get this picture thing to work, I've copied the HTML code into the body of this post...but no such luck...humm

Welcome Jennifer from cool Melbourne Australia.

Love the stitching you have done and especially the idea of doing an angel one for your mum.

I have several angel charts from Lavendar and Lace and I am almost sure I saw some on the sewandso web site recently.
