| AFter two days, five binders and 3 plastic storage containers I think my cross-stitch stuff is finally organized. I truly need a 12 step program. Anyway, Here's my question. What ever happen to the magazine Cross Stitch & Country Crafts? I think it was from Better Homes and Gardens. That was a great Magazine and I don't see it anymore. Anyone know if it's still out there but under another name? Thanks and Happy Turkey Day!!! |

| I agree with you about that being a great magazine. Last I knew it is now "Cross Stitch & Needlework". Haven't shopped for any magazines lately as I have enough "Wannados" to last me at least 3 lifetimes!!! Hope this helps. |

I am looking for a cross stitch barn pattern. Particularly
from Cross stitch and country crafts magazine sep-oct 1992
and jan-feb 1993. I have the second pattern from nov-dec 1992 but there is a series of 3. Even if I could by those
two back issues it would be great. Thanks! |

| Cross Stitch and Country Crafts was first published in Sept/Oct of 1985. Later on it became Cross Stitch and Needlework, and then Better Homes and Gardens Cross Stitch and Needlework. The final issue was in July/Aug of 2000. Better Homes and Gardens still publishes Better Homes and Gardens Cross Stitch Christmas that you can usually find in July of every year. In 2002 they had another in the series of Heirloom stockings that had appeared in the original magazines, and have recently posted on their message board that they will be developing more of these Heirloom stockings in the future.

| CS&CC was sold to BH&G and bcm Cross St and Nwk. (The original CS&CC staff refused to move to Des Moines. They stayed behind and started TREASURES IN NWK. That folded, and then they started THE NEEDLEWORKER. TNW was subsequently sold to PIECEWORK, a general nwk magazine (smocking, etc. inclu). Anyway, BH&G stopped pub of CS&N (low circulation, I guess), but they still publish periodically. Usu a Chr collection. They bought the rights to all those wonderful Sandy Orton Chr. stockings, for example. CROSS QUIK was put out by the CS&CC people, and BH&G got the rights to all those patterns, too.

| I am looking for the Cross Stitch and Country Crafts magazine from the mid 80's which had the pattern for the Twelve Days of Christmas tree skirt. There are some other issues I am looking for, but would like to get hold of that one first if anyone has a reasonably in good condition issue they would be willing to part with. Thanks! |
RE: cross stitch & country crafts magazine

Hi. I am looking for one of the Cross Stitch and Country Crafts issues. The hard part is I dont have the magazine anymore to know which issue I need. I started doing the Amish Farm - which was three pictures in three issues. I completed the two 'smaller' pictures (they all go together to make one farm - the 'center' picture is larger, then the two 'smaller' ones go one on each side of the larger one.). I had the magazines to do the third one (I made the first two back in the ?early 90s? when they were 'new' but then had problems with my hands and never finished the third). I passed the magazines on to someone to do that third one for me, only I have learned she 'no longer has the magazines or my started project or my floss'. I am so hoping someone knows what I am talking about and knows where I might get that third magazine to do that third picture... I cannot be sure, but it seems one was a May/June issue? and I believe one was a July/August? Thanks for any help anyone can provide me in this endeavor.

Renee - I think I have these patterns somewhere in my collection of "wannados". If you still need the pattern for the centre section, email me at wannaBcountrygal@aol.com and I will try to search for it (although it probably won't be until late July before I have the time to do so).

| bellfour - I have two of the Amish Farm patterns (the middle section and the last section) Let me know if this helps. I can mail it to you if you give me your address or I can scan it and send it to you. (I don't know how clear a scanned copy will be) Katiecanuck - can you get me a copy of the first section? I'll be happy to pay postage. |

I have several back copies of this magazine. I have copies ranging from 1989-1997. If you need a pattern, let me know which one and I'll see if I have the issue. I am willing to trade for a copy of the May/June 1988 issue. I am looking for a copy of an apple family tree and I think that the pattern is in this issue. Feel free to contact me at mishashing@yahoo.com. Just put cross stitch or CS/CC in the subject line so I know who you are.
Thanks in advance for your assistance. |

michaelle,
Did you ever receive the pattern for the Pennsylvania Barn?
I found it in the Nov/Dec 1962 issue. The first barn was in the Sept/Oct 1962 issu and was the Midwest Barn. The third was the Western Barn and appeared in the Jan/Feb 1993 issue. If you still need it, email me at dormidor@comcast.net. I can scan it and email to you. |

I have been doing a cross Stitch for my grand daughter and misplaced the issue I was working from. I think it was the
May/June 1993. It was an ornate pattern of the four letters L O V E in purples and blues. Does anyone have that issue? If so, could you see if that pattern is in the book. If you could scan it and email it, I would be thrilled. Thank you. My email is dormidor@comcast.net. |

heirloom stockings
| | |
I started the Heirloom stockings in 1986 when I was on bedrest with my first set of twins. I completed the the 1985 and 1986 stockings way back then. I next had a set of twin girls and never made their stockings :( Now they have one year left at home and I am scurrying to get theirs finished. I have one left to make and after looking at the covers of the out of print magazines online, I think I want it to be either the Jul/Aug 95 or the Jul/Aug 96 stocking. Does anyone have either of those issues?
Thanks,
Sue |

Good Morning All!
After my last post I received hundreds of requests for copies of cross-stitching patterns and I am sad to say that although I am excited to share these beautiful projects with all of you I am afraid my expenses are adding up.
If you need copies of magazines and/or charts please send me an email with your request and an offer for payment. I will mail color copies to you.
If you sent me an email in the last couple of months and I have not responded please follow up with me.
Lastly, I apologize if this email offends anyone and I hope you understand my position. Humbly,
Annie |

| Sue, If you are still looking for the Christmas stocking pattern, I will have it. It will take me a while to find it. Email at junefred@consolidated.net and use message Cross Stitch. June |

| Annie...I am trying to find the two small pictures in the Amish triptic, I have the middle large one. They were published in the CS&CC Mar/Apr 87 (Hanging Quilts) and May/June 87 (Tending the Garden). If you can copy them for me I would be happy to pay for them, as well as postage, as they have been impossible to find. Renee, I know you posted the need for the large middle picture quite a while ago, but if you still need it, let me know and I will send you a copy. |
RE: cross stitch & country crafts magazine
| | |
| If anyone still needs those patterns of the triptic, I have them. Not sure who has answered the above request. I will be going out of town for a few days, so if I don't answer right away that is why. I can scan the patterns and e-mail them to you. My e-mail address is:sderk51@bex.net also make sure and put cross stitch pattern in subject as I don't answer any one I don't know. |

| I'm also looking for the BH&G Cross Stitch & Country Crafts July/August 1992 magazine - the one with the Christmas stocking X-stitch of a little girl's bedroom on the cover. I made that stocking way back then and want to make it again for our new baby granddaughter...but the pattern is now so faded from use that I can barely make it out. Can anyone help me out by emailing it to me? gevans3@telus.net. Thanks! |

| I am looking for the Toys and Games Christmas stocking pattern from the Cross Stitch and Country Crafts magazine. It is a boy's bedroom with shelves filled with toys and games. I have the Better Homes and Garden book with the nine stocking patterns, but I find the original pattern in the magazine gives greater detail, as in the stocking outline, etc. If you can help me locate this pattern, I'd be very grateful. Thanks so much. |

RE: cross stitch & country crafts magazine

| I have the all issues of Cross Stitch & Country Crafts from the Premier Issue thru 1993, all in mint condition, tho some have my old mailing label on the cover. This includes all the Christmas stocking issues thru 1993. I may even have issues beyond 1993, I haven't looked thru all my old boxes yet. They were stored in climate-controlled environments, and I simply MUST downsize my belongings. If you are interested in any or all of them, email me with an offer. I can accept PayPal or personal checks, and will ship after check has cleared my bank. Shipping depends upon how many issues you want, I'll figure it out based upon what the Post Office charges. |

| Hi, I have the issue(s) of CS&CC you're looking for. I'd be willing to sell it to you for $7.00, which includes shipping. The issue is in pristine condition, with very slight yellowing around the edges of the pages from age. I take PayPal, or check. If paying by check, I'd require a personal check to clear the bank before sending the issue, unless it is a cashier's check. If you're interested, please reply to cagoodfellow@roadrunner.com with your info and how you will pay, and I'll send you my address. |
