Time for you
I’ve lost a chart I was going to
stitch – I think it was called
Enjoy Your Retirement! It was
showing a bear in a hammock.
I hope you can help!
Jean Shirer, Westhill
It’s so frustrating when that
happens, Jean! But help
is on hand, because I’m
pretty sure I’ve found the
chart you’re missing. This
design, featuring a panda in
a hammock, appeared in our
sister magazine The World
of Cross Stitching in issue


  1. That issue is no longer
    available to order as a printed
    back issue, so hopefully you
    have it in your collection at
    home. If not, you can still
    download the September
    2015 issue as a digital copy
    from http://www.zinio.com or The
    World of Cross Stitching app.


Love matters
I’m looking for a sampler for
a female same-sex wedding.
Nothing too girly, though!
Jo Howard, via Facebook
There’s such an array of brilliant
designs out there, it was hard
to choose just one for you, Jo!
But in the end I settled on this
bold and beautiful Gay Pride
Wedding sampler. The chart
features a brushstroke-style
quote on a background of
the pride flag in the shape
of a heart – with room for
names and details below.
When you’re ready to order,
just send through the names
of the happy couple and the
wedding date, and you’ll
receive a customised chart
within two days – then you

of a print copy, you could visit The

can get to work on the stitching!
The chart will include between 14
and 20 DMC colours and measure
approximately 43x33cm (16¾x13in)
when stitched on 14-count aida.

Young and old
I’ve sent you a photo of an
elephant design I’d like to
stitch. I hope you can find
it for me, Anne!
Jo Hayes, via Facebook
I’m afraid I was unable to
find the elephant design
you’re seeking, Jo, which
suggests that it’s been
discontinued for a while
now. However, I did find
a similar design that
I hope you’ll like just as
much! Elephants’ Journey
by Ver vaco is a stunning
scene to stitch, featuring
a mother elephant and
her child venturing across
the African savanna
together. The design
comes as a kit and is worked on
14-count ecru aida. Once stitched,
the design measures 26x30cm

S Jean’s planning to
stitch this to celebrate
someone’s retirement

T Jo’s been on
the lookout for
a kit like this!

(10¼x11¾in). You can buy it for
£32.65 at http://www.lovecrafts.com
or by calling 01409 404 010.

S Jo can have this
design personalised for
her friends’ wedding
