lillybettybabs Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Does anyone know of a nice modern or simple chicken cross sticht pattern (or kit)? The ones i have found so far seem to be a little old fashioned. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 www.sewandso.co.uk have lots of chicken, cockerel, Hen cross stitch and tapestry kits and charts. Just put the word in the search box. I have just received an order from them, the prices and postage are very good and the delivery only took a day, which is amazing as I usually have to wait longer with me living at the end of the world. I ordered by phone and the lady I spoke to was very nice and helpful. The company is located in Stroud, Glos. I have no idea why the website address will not work Can any one help please? Just read the notice about not being able to do the links any more and I do not understand the instructions about clickable links Googling sew and so will bring up the site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I think Bothy threads do a chicken cross stitch. I think it's a row of chickens. Look here..lots of chooks! http://www.sewandso.co.uk/search.aspx?keyword=chicken Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that one too. And, no, just because you don't have chooks anymore, doesn't mean you're not allowed chickeny things. In fact, I think you need more to make up for it! mwaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
