Hello People
I have done a number of small projects and am looking for something medium sized, I have a tatty teddy I love you I can pass on? I didnt think about keeping them b4 as I have never joined a forum but in future I will save my patterns and pass the copyright on.
Anyway would love some suggestions or offers of patterns I hope someone might reply?
Thanks and happy days
amy

Perhaps you can tell us the kind of thing you like. Flowers? Birds? Cutesy stuff?
At least then we know what to check our stash for.

Hi Amy, most of my stitching are for living room display (as my mom said our home turn to crosstitch showroom now

)...i stitch mainly flowers, some stitching quote such My needle & my floss they comfort me by waxing moon or Crosstitcher in Residence....I pick these design as I want people who step into my home to know that i am a serious stitcher...

...I would suggest you google freebie patterns or point de croix grilles gratuites...they have plenty of freebie charts...for example, maryse a french designer and maurer stroh offer lots of nice freebies or alternatively you can buy online for nice samplers such as from the sampler girl, littlehouse needlework, blue ribbon design or blackbird designs to name a few........

Hi Thank you for your replys and suggestions, I will check these places you mention. I have only done small things in the past and want a go at a nice medium sized collection. I still struggle with that horrible french knot! I get the first one and then they come undone or pop through! Argh
I think I would like either wildlife or scene's my partner suggested.
Once again thank you!

Maybe a welcome, or bless this home. I am doing the freebie from blogspot its called my little heart SAL (found this thanks to social sue...i believe) its really cute. I am doing this on 14 count so that it will be big enough to display.
