My mum bought me a Dimensions counted cross stitch many years ago. I've just started to get back into doing it, but the problem is I've lost the pattern kit. The number is 35012, it's 3 elephants. I have the front picture, Adia, and the threads. Is there anyone who could help?
Please, many thanks.
I have done this for people....contact the person selling it on eBay and ask if you could pay them fo scanning and emailing you the instructions:

I hope they are kind and will do it. I don't know them...but it would be kind!

I am looking for a cross stitch verse, that starts with the line 'All to myself I think of you, think of the things we used to do...' Can anybody help me find the rest?
I did find this on a poetry website...
"All To Myself" Author Unknown
All to myself I think of you
Think of the things we used to do
Think of the things we used to say
Think of each happy yesterday.
Sometimes I sigh, Sometimes I smile
But I keep each olden, golden while
all to myself.

This comes from a book titled: The Dead Man's Room
In this book, it says:
The sampler with its embrodered carriage--
its colorful Victorian couple who hope or hoped
once for marriage, and its message:
All to myself I think of you
Think of the things we used to do.
Sometimes I sign, sometimes I smile
But I keep each olden, golden while
All to myself.

I am trying to find the old cross stitch pattern for this design I did 20+ years ago? Anyone know where I might find one?
Thanks.
I am looking for a pattern of a horse and foal in counted cross stitch, preferably 10x10 minimum size. I would consider a kit, but prefer just the pattern.
I am looking for a cross stitch pattern of a teacup. I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,

I'm not sure if there's a teacup pattern at this site....but all of the patterns are free and they've also got other links for more free cross stitch patterns. Hope you find one!

I don't have a cross-stitch pattern for you, but for teacup lovers, there's a great knitting pattern for actual teacups and saucers in "Unexpected Knitting," a beautiful book by Debbie New, Schoolhouse Press, Pittsville, WI, 2003. Her book is filled with new, very creative knitting techniques and patterns.
www.DMC-USA.com has free patterns. There is one that is of three teacups but you could just seperate and use the one you want.
Why not make your own pattern?
One method I can think of would be to take a photo and get it into the computer. Then reduce the size so that the pixels become big compared to the whole picture (just like the boxes on a cross-stitch pattern). and reduce the number of colours to a more manageable number (one that you can match with yarn that you already own).
Does anyone have the state counted cross stitch patterns for Virginia and Maryland which were designed by Betty Haddad Shelton and distributed by Janlynn? I have made 6 of them and another military move is on the horizon.

I'm looking for a cross stitch pattern for a newborn baby girl. I'd like to have bears, balloons, or any cute baby design for the top of the picture. I'd like to stitch her name, birthdate, weight, and length under the design.

Has anyone seen a cross stitch pattern or print anywhere with the saying "Having children is like being pecked to death by a duck"? A friend and I saw a print at a craft fair a year or so ago and we would like to see if we can get them. I really don't care if they are cross stitch or whatever. I just really would like to get the saying in print. I would like it to be sort of primitive/folk art looking. Thank you.

Do you have a pattern for the poem "I'm rocking my baby"?
Katie from Saffell, AR
I hope my children look back on today,
And see a Mother who had time to play!
Children grow up while you're not looking,
There'll be years ahead for cleaning and cooking,
I also found this:
...The cleaning and scrubbing will wait till tomorrow,
for children grow up, as I've learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust go to sleep.
I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep.
from "Song for a Fifth Child" by Ruth Hulburt Hamilton
