year and a day to get the needle threaded. ...

Colours by

New Finish - photos posted by

I've just finished my latest project "birds of a feather" by The Cat's
Whiskers, and have posted some pics on RCTNP.
Due to my complete inability to adhere to instructions, I changed some
colours and the pattern, but I think the end result is very pleasing.
I treated myself to some black Teflon...

Cross-stitch software? by
MtnTraveler
Can anyone recommend a good, easy-to-use software that will take a
scanned photo and turn it into a nice pattern? Preferably one that will
allow the user to chose the number of different yarns needed. I've found
quite a few mentioned, but can't find any threads discussing them. Thanks.
