Flip-It
Just wondering what Flip-It's mean? Can you remove one month and change it for another? Or does each one have to have its own frame? I'm new to this. Thanks.

Not a clue. Hopefully, Kristi or one of the experienced stitchers will respond. I have a ton of Lizzie Kate patterns to include one for each month. The shop owner said that I could pop one month out of the frame and insert the next.
Could that be the answer? I doubt it but decided to try. :)

PS Lizzie Kate makes great patterns. I especially enjoy the smaller ones for taking along, etc.

If it is January or september and that word flip-it means it is time to go back to school.

Hello,

Lizzie Kate has her own line called the "Flip It" series. They are a series of patterns that can be stitched together to create one big design or you can stitch them separately as they come. They are small patterns and the leaflets "flip" open so I think that's where her name comes from for that series :)

That makes sense. I was hoping to save money and not have to frame each individual piece. It looks like that's not going to happen.

It it's a Lizzy Kate "flip-it", Kristi is correct. you get two patterns, one pattern and then either above the one pattern OR you turn the one pattern over, the second one is on the back. I have a Lizzy Kate pattern titled, "Christmas Rules" and I'm going to take all the "flip-it" patterns and make it into ONE tall pattern. That way I will only have one project to frame, rather than a bunch of little patterns.

I should have known. I have a huge project in my stash that is flip it. Just couldn't pull it out of the grey matter. I wish that I hadn't been reminded! It's been slumbering away in my container for almost six years.

You can buy a ready made frame at a cross stitch shop and have the project stretched or put over padded material and change it out each month. I have all twelve months, like I said but not stitched yet, and that's how it was explained to me. Some of the ladies said that they like to use different color frames appropriate for the season but I think that's a little much. Or perhaps a frame for each season.
I bought those patterns because they were so cute but have no intentions of stitching them any time soon.
