Cross stitch fever

Hi Everyone--

School is out, summer is around the corner, and I finally have time to stitch. Yeah! I have several projects in the works and others I need to start--a Lizzie Kate Project for my mom, two Shepherd's Bush stockings (one for each nephew) and the Drawn Thread's Sampler Game Board for myself.

And I have also decided to learn now to knit. My mom has taught me the basics, and now I am just going to practice the knitting and the purling. From all of this practice I hope to be able to knit Harry Potter scarves for my two nephews.

I also want to post a plea for help: my mom saw a cross stitch pattern called "Fox Hollow" by Bent Creek stitched up in a shop this past week and wants to get her hand on the pattern. This pattern is out of print, but if you have the pattern and would be willing to part with it or if you would be willing to make a copy of your copy and mail it to me (I would happily reimburse you for your copy and shipping costs) I would greatly appreciate it. I hope to get a copy of it without telling my mom, so I can stitch it for her for her birthday (sneaky me).

Hi Mornen. I got the message you left on my blog. Unfortunately, I cannot send you a copy of Fox Hollow.

I purchased it from The Needle Hive. Try and give them a call and maybe they have another copy. Their website is www.needlehive.com.
