Hello everyone,I was given a afgan(sp?) blanket as a x-mas pressie but I can't decide what to stitch on it.I'm in no rush as I have plenty on the go at the mo but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas?So far I've thought of the wocs angels series (as it's v cheerful!).Or peter rabbit poss?Or I could do a random selection ie popcorn,disney?
Can't decide-opinions please! Big Grin

Im going to do an afghan with some different cover kits (from magazines on!). Not decided who to stitch yet though, but will more likely be winnie the pooh and friends Smile The cover kits are just the right size too!

Do you have any of the xs pc programmes? If so would you be able to do a mock up on that and see what you can come up with. Just a thought.

What about some of the lovely EMS animal babies or her new fantasy babies. Link below takes you to the patterns if you would like to see them.

I do like margaret sherry designs-they're all so cute! peter rabbit is classic thou so it's a tough call.
I loved the santa series but I could only bring it out at x-mas then and I'd like it to be for all year (as a comfort blanket almost).
I don't have any xs progs but my OH has just had a look at says he might be able to help find one for me Smile
Those fantasy babies are really quirky!!Can't decide if I love them or whether they freak me out a bit!Think I shall take a 2nd look.

If I hadn't already started with the Mr Men and Little Miss alphabet, I would have done Margaret Sherry designs, especially cats and mice, then maybe had some classic designs in the corners like the Tailor of Gloucester Mice and Tom Kitten.

Peter Rabbit sounds good, lots of other Beatrix potter characters around too.
