You are welcomed Doug....another suggestion would be to contact the site. I checked and the email contact is wendy@allcrafts.net. Should you contact her and she is able to shed light on the color key, I'd love to know what it is. That picture of Elvis is a really good one, and I might want to stitch it too! Thanks!

DOUG - I went to the site and found the Elvis graph but I cannot locate a key either. There is a link at the top left of the page that says turn off this top frame. When I do that, a picture of the completed graph shows up. It's all in shades of grey/black, and I'm wondering if the stitcher chooses colors based on his/her preferences? Just a thought. HTH!

Two of them has sheet music in it . . . there's (5) listed with sheet music by Bucilla (which is a kit, all with different sellers) and (2) with sheet music and a violin (a computer-generated pattern only, same seller). There was another pretty one there too. It didn't have the sheet music you're looking for but it has roses in the upper and lower left hand corners (which is a pattern only). Just type the words Amazing Grace in the cross stitch search engine and there you'll find them. Good luck!

JUNE: i like the precision of cross stitch; that you don't have to stitch backgrounds; and, the fact that you can buy components (fabric, floss, chart books) and build up stash. i often can produce a finished piece without buying anything. i suggest you go to michael's or joann's and buy a $2 cross stitch ornament kit and try it. they come complete and not much of a loss if you hate it. also, if you're near garden grove, there's a lovely shop http://www.needlepointsltd.com/home1.html that has both cross stitch and needlepoint. welcome to your new obsession!

June - I guess I should also add that I prefer cross stitch, but needlepoint and cross stitch are very similar. Basic cross stitch uses fabric and thin floss while needlepoint uses heavier canvas and thicker yarns. Many of the stitches are exactly the same. It is best to have needlepoint stretched tightly on a frame. I like to cross stitch in hand without a hoop. Some needlepoint canvases are painted (very expensive), but you can use blank canvas too.

JUNE: I've been cross stitching for 22 years & it's my greatest passion! I've never done needlepoint but x-stitch instructions are pretty straight-forward. I normally do kits & they provide an easy-to-read chart, the fabric, thread & needle. There's rarely any guess work involved & the end results can really be spectacular! Almost every single room in my house has at least one x-stitch project hanging in it that I've loving stitched rather than just some generic, boring picture I could have picked up at Wal-Mart. Plus, I've done smaller things (like coasters, trivets, & ornaments) & given them away as birthday/anniversary/Christmas gifts, as well. Try it. You'll absolutely LOVE it!

June, I have done both needlepoint and counted cross and definitely like counted cross better since I am NOT artistic. With needlepoint there would be an area of a certain color and you'd have to make decisions as to how far within or out of that area to do that color. With counted cross there is no guessing. Each square is marked. Just my thoughts...

Hi. I am trying to locate a vintage Elsa Williams crewel embroidery kit for "The Fox Hunt" pattern which was designed based upon the Wedgwood china pattern called "Hunting Scene". My sister had one done for her by our mother and she lost it with most of her belongings and her house in a horrendous house fire in April. If anyone has one or knows of one I would love to purchase it so that I can make it up for my sister who is devastated by the losses. Many thanks, Susan

I am searching for a pattern to finish a project my mother was working on. I believe it is by Creative Circle in the late 80's. A blond doll and teddy bear sitting. the fabric space is square with a patterned "mat" printed on the fabric. It could be finished but the doll's face looks like something is missing. I would love to find the pattern/kit so I can purchase and finish her project.

I made one for myself and my husband and now my son is getting married next summer and i want to do one for him. The pattern has a large ring on it with flowers wound through it. The saying on it is Love is eternal like the circle of a ring whole unto itself..... I would really appreciate any help I could get in finding this pattern.

Paula, I think your stocking pattern was printed in The US Cross Stitcher magazine. It was in two or three issues.Do a search for internet cross stitch magazine data base and search there. It is now associated with cyber stitchers.

Terry, Back Cross Stitch Gold magazines are very difficult to find in the U.S. You could try ebay, I've had some luck there finding old ones. Barnes & Noble carries the current one, but nothing old. The do have a website to order back issues and the Euro is doing well now, so it shouldn't be that much. Hope this helps some.

Vicki - Working on 28ct over one will present a challenge. Changing to a larger needle will help in your stitching but I think you will find that weaving you ends under will be difficult. If threading is your onkly problem try a needle threader. There is one our by LoRan that is my favorite because it amazes me why anyone would want to thread a needle threader - This one you dont it is a tiny hook and you just lay your thread into the hook and wow it is threaded. Hope this helps. www.stitchnframeonline.com

Vicki -- If a size 28 needle seems too small and is difficult to thread, you can switch to a size 26 needle or even a 24. Some people feel it is better to use a slightly larger needle because it opens the hole and the floss is less frayed when going through the fabric. The hole won't remain larger. It closes back up just fine.
