Cross-Stitching

Does anyone cross stitch for a fee?

lauramay67
17 years ago

My sister made me a cross stitch baby record with the birth date, weight etc for me last year. I dropped it off at my local craft store for framing, and the shop destroyed it. I mean- he threw it away!! I didn't pick it up in time- which is my fault I agree, but he could have spent one measly stamp and mailed it back to me.

Anyway- the damage is done.

I still have the kit instructions and chart with some leftover thread, and the new kits are still available on the internet. But, I dont have time to do a new one now and I really hate to ask my sister to redo it.

Does anyone do custom stitch work? I would really like to have the shop owner pay to have it remade.

thanks-

laura
