Hey guys. I have been given what appears to be a large number of Lickle ted cross stitch charts in electronic form. If anyone would like a copy let me know. I actually bought 2 of the packs a few weeks ago and they are sooo cute!!

If this is not too cheeky could you possibly send me the charts. I have some tatty teddy ones if u want to swap.

I love cross stitch but since becoming pregnant I have lost my concentration But hope to chat to you lovely people about cross stitch

I'm still working on the blue-tits/flowers/watering-can project, I'm only about 1/4 of the way through but it's starting to take shape already

That looks great!!

The one I have is just plain old simple cross stitch, maybe when I am done I can post it and you can help me add some other stitches around it to make it look a bit better?

Oooo just thought I'd pop over and say

I used to do cross stitching when I was pregnant with Caitlin and have done it on and off since. I did start doing the portraits and the large pics of the Disney Princess' for Caitlins' room but I kept getting bored

Hoping to get back into it now xx

I'm so pleased with how it turned out!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

That's lovely meldmac well done. I've just gotten back into my cross stitching again I've done 2 small Disney princesses for Caitlins room and I'm working in the 3rd and a Minnie mouse door plaque for my nieces christening xx

 

[PeanutBean]

I'm on cross stitch at the moment too. Making a couple if small gifts for some friends then a birth sampler for Indigo after which I'll be able to get back to my cranes embroidery I started before getting pregnant. For some reason I can't sew when I'm pregnant!

Hi girls! I know this thread hasn't been updated in a while, but I didn't want to make a new one.

I only recently got into cross stitching, and I love it. I got Cross Stitcher magazine and there are so many Christmas designs I want to do, I don't know where to start! The magazine had a free mini cross stitch kit with some patterns, so I've been keeping busy with those. They're Chrismas baubles.

I hope we can revive this thread!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

I still do mine

My most recent project was this for our niece/goddaughter Mia

I have just ordered the Aida and threads to do this HUG into a cushion

xx

 

[mrsswaffer]

Oh wow, that 'hug' cushion is going to look lovely!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Hopefully it will yes What are you planning to do next? x

 

[mrsswaffer]

Well, I'm currently doing the three baubles below (in the pic, they're on the left).

But next, I think I'll do these retro baubles in the same magazine:

I've got the perfect place to hang them in our lounge.
