Ok please bear with me here as I'm VERY unsure of the actual details, but I was just looking through the wanted ads in CrossStitcher magazine and saw the following ad
I'm looking for a CrossStitcher Fantasy Specail, about two years old. Should contain charts by Josh Kirby - Rincewind. Will pay all costs thankyou!
Anyways after reading the ad I'm now also seeking that magazine as I'm a massive fan of Josh's work and have a few prints from the Discworld seris when he was designing the covers (rip Josh) I would love to do a cross stitch Rincewind he's one of my favourite characters from the Discworld novels by Terry Pratchett.

I'm willing to pay all costs donate a kidney give you one of my children pretty much anything really if anyone has this magazine that I can either borrow or buy anything really but I'd be the happiest person in the world if I could get hold of it :)

Pretty please and many hopeful thankyou's in advance
Dawn.

I think that you are referring to a magazine that I bought for my daughter (sorry but she will not part with it). If memory serves me right though it is more than 2 years ago, more like 3 or 4, but then again I may be barking up the wrong tree. Good Luck with finding one.

There seems to be no mention of the mag you are looking for, despite a good googling session :(

I just read this and looked up the comment in the latest CrossStitcher, wow I bet that was/is a good issue to get! :D Absolutely :love: Discworld books!!! Love Rincewind and the Librarian (Oook! Oook! :lol:)

Thanks for the links Jilly and xstitchsue :D Might get one of those and stitch it for Mike (he's a big fan of Terry Pratchett and is where my love for Discworld novels came from! :D)

Hi Dawn, I am new to this forum and I have been going through the forums. If you have not found the Cross Stitcher Fantasy Special Magazine, I have it and you are welcome to it. Please let me know. Yes, Rincewind is in the magazine.

Regards

Anne

P.S. Still learning my way around.

This thread is from 2008 and I don't believe that this person visits the forum any more.

There was a company producing Discworld cross stitche kits. I haven't been able to find any at a reasonable price but they come up from time to time on ebay for a small fortune.
