Hi, Everyone! I am looking for the chart to the "Mother and Child" kit that is always in the Needlework Shoppe catalog by Herrschners (the child is on the mother's lap and the colors are very muted). I don't need the entire kit. I have checked the website, but they only sell the kit or the kit and...

Any news of Trish? I heard that Newcastle has been very badly hit by violent storms and floods. Pat -- Be who you are and say what you feel....Because those that matter....don't mind....And those that mind....don't matter.

Hey cross-stitchers, I'm using the program PC-Stitch to try and make a cross-stitch pattern from a picture, that I can sew by hand. The program says, that you can max set the DMC colors to 200. Is that all DMC have? Any other fabric manufactures, that has more? Maybe it's more than enough, I don't...

I have 5 works of art on cloth which I want to frame myself. These pieces are not expensive. I'm looking for a reasonably priced mat cutter for one time use. Since this purchase is for one time use only, is there an inexpensive mat cutter I can get in any store? All my cuts will...

I need the chart for the cherries picture. Longaberger sold the four fruit picture cross stitch kits at the Homestead. They are now retired and I didn't get the chance to get the cherries kit. All I really need is the chart and I would be happy to pay for using it and send it back to you.

I was time-wastin' for a few minutes today and stumbled over this wonderful old sampler. Check out the third photo down on the right-hand side of the page: http://www.shakespearespeddler.com/ By a NINE year old! And it looks like the lettering is over one. sue

Hey all, sorry for the late notice, but, I'm a slacker. Sue H., whose been offline for a couple of days (away) pinged me to maybe post something about our "RCTN" outing tomorrow, Friday, 12/29.

I'm hoping the experts in this group can give me some advice. I see many fabrics listed in the FAQ, but there's no comments. For example, "I like the look of Belgian Linen, but you can see the back through the front -- don't use it if you are carrying threads across the back." I'm planning on...

I swear this piece is jinxed! Several years ago, a friend asked me to stitch a kit for her. Right about that time, I went into relapse. To get it to her quickly, I asked someone else to stitch it. After some major frogging, it was done and mailed, but never received. When I started feeling a...

Does anyone use a Kindle or a Sony E Book Reader? My friend was asking about one and I have never given it much thought before. Lucille

My sulky white ink transfer pen is in the garbage! I carefully followed directions to get the ink flowing and the little ball on the tip just won't move sigh Also, I think the ink might be all dried up. Naturally, I think there's a design flaw in the pen, not the fact that it's been in a...

Many years ago, I purchased several baseball style caps that had a front panel of cross stitch material. Does anyone have one (or more) these (unstitched) they would like to sell or know of a supplier for such items. I've searched the internet till my fingers are sore, but can't find them...

First I have do say that I don't really sew, not with a sewing machine. I don't need an expensive embroider machine, I do THAT by hand :) What I MAY need is something to help me do hems when something needs re-doing for whatever reason, and to finish certain kinds of liturgical embroidery projects...

Hello Ladies, Some of the cross stitch kits I've purchase recommend washing your finished product before framing. Why does it need to be washed? What is the benefit for or against washing. I understand why you'd pre-wash darker threads before use, but I need some help understanding why you'd...
