Cross Stitch Crazy Mag., ABC exchange,...

First of all, thanks so much for all the nice comments over my first model. Honestly, with stitching 3 threads over 28ct. evenweave plus lots of the backstitching too, put me off to sign up anymore.

Received my copy of Cross Stitch Carzy Magazine this week and only has the time to have a look today and what a surprise
to see picture of the pinkeeps i've made earlier this year. Sent it through e-mail a while back but never received a response so i thought it just got lost in cyberspace. I did mentioned pinkeeps but it was written here on the magazine pincushions.



Just read that Chris received my package for the SBEBB ABC exchange. I've stitched her this freebie of Anne Les Petites Croix
and finished it off into a pinkeep. Do hope Chris likes it and and all the extra's enclosed(no picture here)


Been working on a couple of exchanges, LHN exchange and ILCS small finished exchange. I understemated the finishing time especially for the ILCS, it took me longer than i had expected. Will finish it off tomorrow.
Since i've seen this Season SAL of Helga Mandl Designs i am in love with it. Didn't stitch the Spring block yet but i started with this summer block. I prefer to stitch them separately but not sure yet how to finish them off.

You did an amazing job on your model stitching. It certainly looks like an intense piece.

What a pretty pinkeep. I've been scrolling through your recent posts - lots of lovely stitching Mylene.

We even get to watch Holland play here in the US. We are thrilled with how they are doing so far.

HUP HOLLAND HUP!!!!!

Congrats on getting in the mag. I sent a pic off years ago and I think it did get lost as I never saw it then I stopped buying the mag! Ooooh you did the tournicoton freebie too. I saw it on Carlas blog. I have it downloaded - just need to choose colour. x
