Great idea, mags! I had to go look up a few

[Rose]

Isn't that interesting I was thinking if I won the game then some stitching terms would make a good game.

[wendywombat]

I shall be missing out on this one as we are going away soon BUT I think the Theme is a great one! I had thought of a stitching theme for my turn but it had been done by Coffee _Freak just before me so I thought that a food theme was close to our hearts too.

Good Luck to All of you who play this one!

[Kitsune]

I don't even know what most of these stitches are!

I bought a book of Samplers and small projects, and they're not even listed in it!

I'm going to have a lot of fun looking them up and finding out how to do them... So long as they're easier than the French Knot, which is still beyond my capabilities. I like Daisy stitches better... They're easier to do!

[Kitsune]

Wow, really! That's just bad luck!

Did you let your SO pick your words too, this time?

On my end, I've got 3 so far... Not doing too badly, although I'm sure others are doing better!
