Unfortunately I think people are changing their settings and becoming more 'private' I don't understand it myself. I know many people are fearful online but to me it's a bit like walking into the party then turning your face to the wall and saying...

I made a trio of ornaments to exchange with other ladies from the Cross Stitchin' Fingers group. I found a freebie pattern online yesterday for partridges and pears made of fabric, and I'm thinking about making some of those.

I personally won't be making ornaments, as I don't keep Christmas, but I do have the 'An Elizabethan Christmas' book, which has the details of about a dozen circular small hangings. They're meant to be for the Xmas tree, but I felt that they could...

These are the cutest things! But I say the poor fairy who has left them at your place must have cold feet.

Sharon,

Thank you for your kind comment about my fairy shoes.

I see we can choose a page to jump to in the photo gallery. PHEW! Thank you for that too. No more clicking through hundreds of pages to go back to where I left off.

thank you. i really admire your work. i'm going to be adding favorites later this eve. that little tree is one of the smallest things i've done, but now i think i might concentrate on postcard size more often. you can really zoom in on the stitches. it's actually way more impressive in online photos. if you had it in your hand, you would say, "where'd it go?!" LOL

Hi
Love your dragonfly postcard. Can you help explain why just this last month it now takes 4minutes plus for any of the stitching fingers pages to load up. I have no problem with other websites. I love visiting the site but now find I do not have the time as it can take all morning just to see 2/3 pages.
Claire
