Cross stitch

[jimi]

I'm thinking of taking up cross stich to while away the empty hours, has any tried this? I'm particularly thinking of doing my own designs with a nautical theme.

I know a 9 year old that could give you lessons

Not nautical but at least West Highland. Take a look.

Cross stitch kits.

It's my wife's web site.

Perhaps you and Tome could practise your sewing together - though I think he was going straight stitch wise and eclectic (whoops, electric) whereas you're getting into the cross stuff and by hand type job.

Jimi,
I'm really concerned about you. First dodgy photos, now sewing. Are you going through a mid life crisis?
A well wisher

i do believe you've found another niche in the market easily the equal of my liferaft maintenance job. Dual purpose pullover & Nautical chart? washable, eh?

technically, the shrinkage of the article need not be such a problem as the scale will shrink too, won't it? a pair of grundies would seem a good place to start and there's a willing outlet in M&S who are in need of a new line of knickers to bolster flagging sales. and, speaking of flags, would a stitched ensign be an ideal application .... i see a potential market in the windsor area the month after next, especially if you can include a pic of an old bloke and his bint on the flag ...

onyways, heres a wee help tae get youse awa' ...

Been through that, I'm now happy with my obesity,sexuality and mortality. Just drinking a bit more beer to help me through the rest

Happy with your obesity, sexuality, mortality etc...... Drinking a bit.....
Does this mean there is a recognition here that you are a fat w***er, who's drinking himself to an early grave then or have I missed the point?

These posts have become dreary again. We need more gratuitous insults.

Re: I\'m off in the huff

Excellent!!! Thats the Jimi I remember...... But as a matter of accuracy I think you mean hairy palmed, not hairy nosed. I never insulted yer nose.....
