UK Patterns

I looooove some of the UK patterns on this page. Towards the bottom of the page, the "nature samplers," especially the tree one and the robin one. Those colors are so pretty!

I also love the Margaret Sherry designs, of course! And look at these naughty black cats by Toni Goffe!

And check out these charts of UK sites and maps. I really like the patterns of Ely Cathedral and the York Minster. How I wish I could find something similar showing German or Bavarian sites!

I've seen a few of these Silhouettes designs in people's online galleries, and they're so pretty when they're done. Mmm.

I just added a couple of UK online shops to my list of shopping sites in the right hand column. Has anyone had any experience ordering from Stitchability or SewAndSo to the US? I'm curious...

I just wish the dollar weren't so weak right now. Heh.

Ooooh. This one! http://www.stitchability.co.uk/PCE935.JPG I wish I could cross-stitch. That is just so perfect for my living room.

Susie,

I've bought from SewandSo. They are very quick to ship your stuff here to the US. You might want to check out some US online shops. I know a few that carry UK Patterns.

Thanks for the info, Jenn! I will definitely look into some of the US sites. It's just that I haven't seen some of these patterns before at all! I wish I were going on a trip to England sometime soon...
