Welcome to ChitChat!

Finally after 16 1/2 months!

After an absence of about 15 years from stitching, i have taken it up again and loving it!

I have 3 old patterns that I am wanting to start but cannot find the fabric that was used.

They are:
28 Count Natural Cashel Linen
28 Count Olive Green Cashel Linen
28 Count Dirty Linen Cashel Linen

Are these no longer available, and if not can you recommend a similar substitute?

So glad that I found your website and looking forward to hearing from you real soon?

Kind regards,
D'Ann Holk

Good Friday morning everyone. I got my 250th anniversary kit in the mail yesterday and can't wait to start it. Here's my question, though. When using light effects DMC floss do you use one strand or two? I have never stitched with that type of floss before. Today we get to try one of the rib eye steaks we got at the meat market yesterday on the grill. Steak is a once a month treat in our house. Still stitching on the seed packets and then on to the Americana kit. Have a fabulous Friday and upcoming weekend!

Does anyone know of a good place that I can get a clip on small witch on a broom and a bat charm? I have very small frames (2x2) I want to attach them too. Thanks

Good morning everyone! Hope this finds everyone in good spirits today. Just finished baking my Caramel Chocolate Bars, they are so good caramel, chocolate, coconut and German chocolate cake mix, and evaporated milk and margarine.
Going to do some stitching after dishes. Have a wonderful day!

Today is Friday …………………………….……………………. Good Morning, MJ 💕

Hi maybe it is time we all tell what state we live at.
I live in North Caolina

Good Morning


Leviticus 19: 1 -5


1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses saying:


2 "Speak to all the congregation of the sons of Israel
and say to them, "You shall be holy, for I the Lord
your God am holy.


3 Every one of you shall revere his mother and his father,
and you shall keep My Sabbaths; I am the Lord your
God.


4 Do not turn to idols or make yourselves cast metal gods;
I am the Lord your God.


5 Now when you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the Lord,
you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.


Have A Bless Day!

Good morning! Can anyone recommend an alphabet chart that features script writing as opposed to block letters? I am starting a wedding crossstitch for dd and need the names and date ( which I am adding) to look more elegant.

So I've always been a fan of Q-snaps, but now I am finding them getting heavy and harder to hold for long periods of stitching. I'm finding that I set my stitching aside far sooner than I'd like. I am considering switching to a hoop, and am interested in the Nurge rectangular hoop. My question is how long can you leave your work in the hoop without leaving "hoop marks". I tend to do cover-all patterns, so my work stays in place for 4-6 weeks at a time before I reposition it. I would really appreciate some advice. Thanks.
