Not that I am enabling anyone, and since I haven't done many of these though I absolutely love them it probably isn't fair to do this, but Joan Elliot charts are on sale at 123 Stitch this week. I am sure I am not the only one who gets their weekly ads, but it didn't seem fair to not alert those of you who dont :roll: . I was very tempted myself, but am resisting (I think).

:thinks: (a lot about this right now)

"NOT that I am enabling anyone" - not much and I won't look on there either - I don't think so anyway, or I just might take a quick peek.

Grrrrrrrr I am trying not spend any more on stash for a week or two Carole.

LOL Sally--there are some very tempting ones on there, but I already have a few Joan Elliott's lined up to do--and I'm anxiously awaiting the Sleeping Beauty one that is due out in next months Cross Stitch Gold magazine---so many lovely projects and not nearly enough time!! :doh:

Yes well, thanks a lot Carole - I think. Soooo many tempting ones but I did buy 2 and of course had to have some fabric to go with Rosie don't I.

Gggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr My card is going to hide now. I already have 1 order (fabric) on the way.

Oh how I wish the Aus/UK currency difference wasn't so huge I love Polstitches but way toooooooo expensive.

Carole: :D :D wait and see. I may start one of them later in the year. I gave you a clue to 1 of them anyway.

Karen, I too am waiting for the Cinderella one and will keep a good look out in a couple of months for that mag. Its a bit harder to find here but there are a couple of shops I know which do get it.

I bought the Lady Rose (I think that what is called) and the one with the 4 small angels - great for Christmas presents me thought.

Carole in one way you did me a good turn as I suddenly remembered I should have ordered 2 fractal charts from a local catalogue so have now done that and I bet the 2 lots from 123 stitch get here before it even leaves the warehouse just a few hundred miles south of here. Their service is slow. You can come out of hiding now. Thanks for the laugh - much needed these days

Oh I ordered the 4 petite Christmas angels a while back--and yes, they will make great presents--quite what I have in mind for them for this coming Christmas.
I have a couple of people watching for the magazines for Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty--I'm definitely going to stitch up Sleeping Beauty and I know there are a few great charts in Cinderellas issue too!
I hope your stash arrives soon--all of it!! Enjoy!!

I noticed that sale as well.. I'm actually thinking of the Qsnaps covers and trying to avoid charts since my goal is to accomplish some stash whittling through creation. :D But I appreciate more payback Carole :lol:
