Please can anyone help me.

My husband has just informed me that we are going to his friends engagement party next week. I'm totaly skint and really can't afford to go and buy a gift for them.

Can anyone recommend a chart for a really nice engagement card or something I can frame for them preferably in DMC as I have the complete set.

I so love cross stitching, it's an easy gift.

I'm afraid I can't help with a specific engagement card suggestion (I don't think I've ever stitched one), but I would think that many wedding card designs that don't actually feature brides and grooms would be easy to modify. You could also just use a really nice alphabet charts to stitch their names and engagement details, maybe with a few hearts or something in the background.

Sorry I can't be of more help - good luck!
