I didn’t enjoy stitching with wool but do like the looks of it when finished

It's the middle of the night here right now so I'll rummage through my stuff when the sun comes up on how many I have. Ann

Just wondering if we can look forward to more than three scenes in the Farmhouse Christmas series? Also ladies, if anyone is stitching them as a single scene or if you've chosen to use different colors than those charted, will you please post a few pics? I'm looking for some ideas. Thanks so much.

Have just received the first of two pieces of PTP's random dyed material and it is beautiful. I picked Alchmey to do Artecy's "Hang On" and it will go beautifully instead of using white. Now I wait to see what the other piece will look like when it arrives for the "Yuk Tuk Dancing Bear". I chose Phantom for that one and I will go and see my craft lady and pick out sparkling beads and buttons to put on instead of Krienik braid. Now back to the cushions that are having their stitched pictures hand sewn onto them. What a job!!

You are so busy but I saw a pattern that I did about a year or so go that called for Picture This Plus aida but ECS did not carry it so I dyed my own fabric. But now you carry the fabric (hurray) so sku-22715 might need an update in its supply list. Definitely nothing to race to but.......

Having to postpone my ‘granny square’ shopping until I can see doctor about right arm injury....sigh...when it rains it pours.....😏

I got a piece of Lugana 25 ct fabric in my last order a couple weeks ago. The information about the color, SKU, etc. was on a sticker that was stapled to my fabric. What happened? It has always been taped to the fabric with masking tape. I managed to rescue the fabric, but I don't want to see any staples in my future fabric orders. Has this happened to anyone else?

The Quaker ball, the price 29.95, is that for the pattern only? and does it have patterns for all three sizes.

I signed up for another challenge through my Bootcamp. It is a six-week challenge that plans out meals and gives us recipes. This week we are focusing on low carb. We also get points in the challenge when we post the food we make and doing extra exercise tasks that our instructor gives us. The points are all added up and there are prizes at the end. It started Sunday at dinner time. Basically, the dinner you make that night is also your lunch for the next day. So far we have made two new dishes in my house. Sunday night I made a chicken, cauliflower alfredo. Although I made noodles for the rest of the family, I myself did not eat this over noodles. Last night was Salmon Tandori with arugula and cuccumber sauce. My hubby made this while we were at Bootcamp class. He also made it with chicken because not everyone in the family likes salmon. It was tasty but I vote for the chicken alfredo dish out of the two. Tonight it is a cobb salad with a homemade ranch dressing. In the morning I can eat two eggs scrambled and a cup of fruit or we can eat oatmeal. I have been doing the eggs. Since I normally only eat a banana for breakfast if anything, the eggs have been a good way to fuel my body. I am not going to lie this is a very tough challenge and I have found it difficult already and it's only day two!! I am going to try hard to stick to it but I have to admit I am glad we have a cheat day in there! It happens to be Friday which makes it all the more reason to say TGIF. Of course, we can switch out the day for the cheat day as needed. Wish me luck. I am going to need it! PS We do have a list of snacks that we can eat. These include celery and PB, nuts, clementines, apples just to name a few.

Hi I would like to do this sampler in 14ct aida as my eyes aren't as good as they use to be. I did a calculation with the stitch size of 220x350 and determined fabric size to be roughly 34"x32". Does this sound reasonable?? Thanks for any help you can provide. Peggy

I found a poem my mom wrote to my dad before they married. She passed in 2016. He is in poor health. I want to stitch her poem with a few anchors (Navy) or a sunset or something. This may be his last Christmas with us and I think it would make a wonderful gift. Does anyone know where I could send a pic of the poem and have a pattern made?? I cannot freehand. 🙄 Any help is appreciated, thanks!!

What color would be the closest to the Portobello linen?

I think I'm a little confused. When I tried to buy this pattern, it asked me how I wanted it shipped. I just need the pattern. Not the kit. Is there a way to just order the digital pattern?

Thanks!

Thanks!
