HELP! Winnie the Pooh cross stitch pattern needed!


EDITED TO ADD March 8th 2017:  Thank you for visiting my blog and this long ago entry. Please note though that I sadly never found the pattern to purchase or anyone to loan me their copy (and it's too late now for me to make it for my nephew).  Wishing you all good luck if you are also wanting to find this long out-of-print and extremely hard to find chart. Rather than posting here about your desire to find the chart, please post your desire on your Instagram account, which has an audience far and wide and also try asking on embroidery groups on Facebook. Happy hunting and I hope you'll soon be stitching! 


Hellooooo! Crazed soon-to-be-an-Auntie, on a mission! My niece is decorating her nursery in Classic Winnie the Pooh and I sooooooooooooo want to make this birth sampler for her as a gift. It was a kit made by Anchor and is no longer available - at first it looked like I could get it from the UK but it's not available there either. WAH!!!  sniffle sniffle

Does anyone possibly have the chart (I don't need the kit, just the chart) and would be willing to lend it to me, thereby making me immensely happy (and very bouncy, like Tigger) and eternally grateful and less likely to go bonkers???

Thank you bunches for listening to my whining and any help you can give!

Wish I had some Elevenses, as Pooh would say, a scone and some tea would be delightful ... TGIF!

gonna be an auntie


My oldest niece is expecting her first baby on July 2nd, a little boy. Her baby shower invitation came in yesterday's mail. Fun fun fun. I've been enjoying looking online from time to time for our gift to her ever since she told us ... but I've gone a little OCD since the arrival of the invite LOL. You knew I would!

My brother passed away when she was just nine years old (and her little sister was only three), needless to say they are very dear to me and I want to give her EVERYTHING that's cute out there!

(I'm also gathering children's craft ideas, so Auntie can make the little guy stuff and also have craft dates with him!!!)

Anyway, began bookmarking contenders for damage to Auntie's bank account this morning and that just wasn't working for me. Need to see it together! Because - if you know me at all, you know that I'm a girl who loves themes. So I put these together this morning ... there will be a million more to follow, you can count on it.
