Is the Cross Stitcher Handmade Cards book good? I've seen it in the newsagents, but it was all covered so I couldn't have a flick through. :/
I like it as it has patterns for every occasion really. It's also got some good patterns for men and I always struggle when stitching for my Dad's/dad-in-law's birthdays or Father's Day.

neat! I may have to pick it up then. I can get the Ipad version, so it's a lot cheaper at least.
Oh, have you seen the new book they've got? same dealie as the one you have, but more for celebrations.

Attempting Diamond Painting
Making like three crochet blankets at once #nolife

:D I've just bought the Celebrations one! I haven't had much time to look through it yet but it looks pretty good. Perhaps not as many designs that I am likely to do but again some handy ones for those tricky times where you can't think what to stitch for somebody :grin:

That's pretty funny! :D

I think i'll wait for the celebrations one to come out on the ipad and get both at the same time :)

Those booties are so cute! I wish I knew someone with a baby so I could attempt making them without looking weird!
