Second week
I could not spend that much time as expected yesterday, so I did not finish that first motif, but I really am enjoying stitching on this one, quite sorry about putting it away for a week...
And a picture for you:

BP sal I
Hi girls!
Yesterday I could not find the time to post, but here it is now:
Not much of a progress, only half of a motif, but still- a progress.
The material is a home-made linen about 100 years old (from inheritance), the floss is DMC 902. I like it very much, stitching on it is very much fun.
See you next week!

Newcomer
Hello everybody,
I am very excited about the Beatrix Potter SAL. I have some really old linen (from the great-grandma of a Hungarian stitching friend), and I will stitch this one on that. I have not decided on the thread colours yet, still thinking. Most probably I will choose DMC.
I am new here. My name is Rita, I live in Hungary, have been cross-stitching for 3 years, and have fallen for quaker samplers just recently. The only quaker I stitched so far were three little motifs from Bois le Duc, see:
28 count ecru Linda, DMC 121
28 count ecru Linda, DMC 99 28 count ecru Linda, Madeira 2406
