I've even bought embroidery in charity shops after seeing things other bloggers have made with vintage stitchery - they've not been cut up as I just cannot bring myself to do it! Perhaps I will, one day! As for the strain on the eyes - I have long used a magnifying glass hung round my neck to stitch cross stitch, something I don't have to do with embroidery! So my neck suffers too!FlashinScissorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408946289711452871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652096409954439984.post-82169170530455582392015-08-25T16:49:17.367+01:002015-08-25T16:49:17.367+01:00Thank you Alex, most kind.

You have already spent a good amount of time on it. What are a few minutes of frogging. I love your cat too. Great idea to save your new tile.CathieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15466163934848609107noreply@blogger.com
