Mary Cottona Cross Stitch Pattern by Kathy Barrick

This is not just for this item, but for the merchandise overall. First, the merchandise is VERY fairly priced! When you spend much of your time crafting, it goes from "hobby" to OBSESSION! Which in turn starts getting more and more expensive. And then you start justifying why you're spending that much, and then your brain starts feeling fried, right? Well, that's what makes Everything Cross Stitch a great vendor. It truly is everything for those who love not just cross stitch, but everything needlepoint related. And the thing we stitchers use more than anything is thread, and this great company offers it so reasonably priced, that you gladly pay the $8 shipping fee, because the thread is great. And they have all kinds of thread! Cotton - of course, satin variegated, metallic, perle, DMC AND Anchor! How great is that!? And talking about shipping, it arrives on a very timely basis. I purchase different crafting materials from one of several online stores. I live in the Midwest, the company is based in the Appalachias, and it takes 3 weeks to arrive. Everything Cross Stitch delivers usually within 2-3 days of my order. I love that. I HIGHLY recommend you suggest this vendor to your crafty/stitchy friends. They will thank you! Mine did!
