Hi to all. Counted cross stitching is my passion! It's very addicting...you know..hurry up with one pattern, so you can start the next one. So many designs..so little time lol. I make cards & bookmarks, etc. out of my cross stitch. I have been cross stitching about 15 years. I have sold my cross stitch items on the other site but, nobodys even looking here. Guess I just need to be patient. I like how friendly you all are. Have a great day! :)

Think I may have noticed the problem, the link you have to your auctions in your signature doesn't work. One http/ too many I thought but when I took it out the link took me to my own My eBid pages and not your auctions.
Think this is the link you need

problem is when I use it, it goes to my Items I'm Selling page.
You need the link that was in my other post it is specific to your auctions only.
Just highlight it and right click Copy Link Location then paste it where you want it to go. :)

When I click on your link it goes to my auction page but, the money is in pounds. When I click on the link I have it goes to my page & the money is in US dollars. Why does it say account pending? I did copy & paste too. I will try again. Sorry to be such a bother. Sandy

Are you signed in when you are looking and seeing it in pounds, else it might think you are in the UK.

Hi, yes I am signed in. Guess my signature is all messed up. Why is it still "account pending"? When I click on your link all I get is your logo picture. Sandy

Thanks so much buttons-and-bows!! This seems to work! Thanks to all who helped me, or tried to. When I was on the other site..my daughter set everything up for me. She now lives 100 miles away. I'll prolly ask for help many times as I stumble my way through. Lol...I started this computer stuff kinda late in life. Sandy

Hi fellow cross stitch addict, I'm also one too! And like you also sell cross stitch as well, especially cards. I've also come over from the 'other side' as its complete pants for use little people.
Hope you get some new customers soon

Hi Stitchybubbles..just looked at your cards..they are beautiful. Isn't it odd, I had to buy card blanks from the UK, when I'm from the USA. Couldn't find what I wanted here. I can never list a lot of stuff at one time..this is kinda like a hobby. I stitch & sell what I can & hope I make enough to cover everything. I do make a few "scrapbooking" type cards too. Ebid looks better then ever. Always wanted to have a store but am not sure what all is involved in having one. I still don't have the little green icon for address verification yet. Have a great day.

Hi Sandy, thanks for looking at my cards. It's the same with me, I make them as a hobby more than anything and used to do quite well with them over on the dark side until they brought in all their silly new rules and regulations.
Do you also stitch larger projects for yourself and family? I have done so many over the years and my favs are Heaven and Earth designs, Lavender and Lace, Mirabilia and historical figures, especially Henry VIII and his 6 wives.

Hi stitchybubbles, I have done a few larger cross stitch projects. I just finished a Wedding stitch for my daughter, and had it professionaly framed. It is a Ursula Michaels design. Very pretty. I was really pleased with how it turned out. I have done B-day cards, get well, etc, for my daughter, the grand kids, and now, I have 2 great grand kids with another on the way to stitch for.I think I'm getting old, lol definately entitled to a senior moment now & then. Mostly, I like to do smaller ones for cards, etc. I sold pretty well on e**b. Not a lot, cause you can only stitch so much. I think I bought as much on e**b as I sold [books, etc. lol, a lot of cross stitch books]. Do you remember when Paula Vaughn designs were the hottest thing on e**b cross stitch items? I bought 2 of her books..lol.. they were so involved ...so many color changes & took so long to do, I never did get any done [started 2 though...still have them]. They must take months to do. Lavender and Lace designs are beautiful but, am not up to doing all the beading & all the work involved with them. I just mostly do my small items. That way I can do whatever strikes my fancy. Wow! Did not intend to be so long winded.

I just used the suggested link and I was straight to your listings. Very nice they are too. Alas, I like doing my own, so no sale here. But I am sure word will spread and the site gets more use with time
All the best
