So - what are you stitching

I've been stitching away at a baby dragon alphabet. I've also spent a little time on Bouquet for Cheryl in the DMC variation dark green.

Cheryl Altho' I don't usually do kits, I couldn't resist this one - It's called Lofty Living by Bucilla (a bunch of birdhouses) ... It took me a good 1 1/2 days to match the floss to DMC before I could start it - I hate not knowing what floss I'm working with - and don't ya just love it when they say - lt. pale grey, lt. grey, pale grey, lightest pale grey, grey, medium grey blah de blah You'd think it was a crime to tell us what floss they're using so we could convert to what we like to use. Oh well, no one yanked my arm to buy it, did they? :-) Sharon (N.B.) |

Sue I, once and only once, found someone selling a class kit - and it wasn't on ebay but a semilocal swap group. Cheryl If you ever do come across a resource for the kits, please, please share. I would love to attempt one. L |

VBG sue Y'know, you're local enough, Sue, that you could do one of her classes. You could probably e-mail Betsy and find out when/where she's teaching and just c'mon down..... ellice |

We can give you the number of the local shops that carry a lot of her stuff. She has a freebie up on the Rainbow Gallery site. Ruth is local here now - and reps for Rainbow Gallery. Amybear - she sells directly off her website IIRC. The Monkey Works page seems to be down - if she is in the UK Ellice |
