Been a long time

Hi all

I just wanted to say hi and that after 6 long years I am getting back into cross stitching

I'm slowly building back up my stash and resisting the temptation to buy everything I see! I hope everyone is staying safe

Welcome back! It is great to hear from you again. And glad to hear that you are getting back into stitching. And glad that you remembered us. No promises that we won't encourage any desire on your part to increase your stash as you rebuild it. If you remember we are terrible enablers for that. What have you started working on? Looking forward to seeing you're updates!

I'm currently trying to complete the woodland folk series but im having trouble finding either kits or charts for sale for the ones I want but I'll keep trying

Hi Pixie and Welcome back, it's great that you have found us again. I hope you find some of the designs you are looking for and of course there are always plenty of new charts/kits etc to tempt us.

Hi Squirrel, I made the mistake of looking on both eBay and Amazon, too many amazing things!! for now I intend to subscribe to a couple of cross stitch magazines and go from there.

it is good to be back though, I didn't realise how much i missed this site!

Good to see you back again....and ....

Your stash is fabulous!

You most certainly did the picture right and have made a great start on your stash procurements! The only problem I would have is deciding which one to start on first!

rcperryls, I've been a very naughty Stitcher

when I tied my cupboard up I found a almost finished Dimensions Gold Petit Collection Tiger Cub stuffed at the back. I've currently got it soaking in warm water and Vanish to clean it up and start with that one I think. picture to follow once its dry

I did that recently in an effort to get it a bit tidier. A big mistake. Me thinks I will be shedding a few kits before too long.

so this is the poor piece I found stuffed at the back of my cupboard, I've no idea how to long its been there but I've cleaned it and ironed it up and by some miracle I have the chart and threads for it as well so gonna work on this for now

Oh that poor tiger stuffed away for so long. I look forward to seeing him all washed and tidy and growing in beauty.
