Told in a Garden "Baby in a Basket" by
Peaches
Told in a Garden's "Baby in a Basket" is charted to be stitched
over two, with the baby's face and hands over one. I'd like to
stitch the whole thing over one. Before I spend time recharting
it myself, just thought I'd ask if anyone has already done this
-- or had advice for me.
TIA,

Hi there,

or two or three. First, let me tell you a little bit about myself. I stitch
because the process fills a gap while watching TV, not because I need more
stuff to hang -- my walls are just about covered ;-) I...

Stitch a Photo by

Well, I got my chart back... OH BOY! It's going to be an absolute nightmare.
She did say that she had had to "do a lot to the photograph" and had some
trouble picking out the colours, and wished me all the best of luck! I am
kind of looking foward to it and kind of dreading it, to be honest! I...

I'm fascinated with these materials! I've been looking at fabrics from
Silkweaver's (www.silkweaver.com) Has anyone ordered from them?
I'm thinking of doing Mermaid Heaven on one of these, but can't decide

Hand Embroidery in Mainstream Magazine by
Karen C - California
Sunset magazine, December 2003, suggests "simple stitching transforms plain
linen napkins". The directions are simply to draw a triangular Christmas tree
and "fill in with green cotton embroidery thread", so not much of an
introduction, but still, it's hand embroidery in a magazine not dedicated...
