Hello all, wanted to say hi and loovvvveeeee the site. I started stitching again a few months ago with a kit but wanted to do some nes stuff and google led me here, now it's about all I do with my free time.

I did have an idea of stitching a background and some figures and make like a playset type deal. Maybe for my niece.

Looking awesome :cool:

Also... may have to steal that play set idea... It's too good to pass up!

I was wondering the same thing but thought it might be some cross stitch accessory I never heard of :blush:

It was at one point. But I was browsing through and found the what do you do with the floss scraps thread and saw people putting them in bottles and that was the only empty bottle I had.

Booze would be an amazing cross stitch accessory :nod :grin: A good beer, some nerdy movie, and cross stitching. That sounds like an amazing night!

I absolutely love the Maniac Mansion piece that you are working on. Now I'm tempted to creat something similar but with my brother's favourite party instead

With regard to the boozy cross-stitching... I've tried it @_@ it seemed like an awesome idea when I came home from a party one night but it just resulted in Many many stitches that needed to be pulled out the next day :cry:

Nice work! You should totally do a playset. Having made one, I can say I found it quite interesting to create. I've just started a new one too... ;)

Well. I need to actually finish one before I start a set. Lol. The maniac mansion one I found somewhere here. I have some sprites and plan to make a pattern since I got kg chart pro the other week. But now I want a sewing machine for Xmas so I can start quilting, and sewing in general. I know how to do some basic crocheting, made a blanket with butterflies and a baby cap with bear ears. Can't seem to follow crochet patterns to well, but would love to make some ruppees and stuff. And I have tried to xstitch buzzed, just can't focus. Oh well.
