I'm after a pattern for the Eiffel Tower done in blackwork. Anybody remember seeing one in a book or anywhere? 

[Melladh]

I definitely remember seing one, but I don't know where  Googling is just giving me quakers. Maybe you could grab an eiffel outline and just fill it with a nice blackwork texture, if nothing else turns up?

[goldfishpollywog]

I'm not finding it either, but Melladh's suggestion is great!

I've had a go at designing some of my own cross stitch patterns. I would really do with some feedback on if they work and what could be improved about them.

Careful! Designing patterns is very addictive!

I'm loving the union jack heart especially.

[Melladh]

They're really cute! My favorite is the union jack as well. Though if I were to make it, I'd probably add 3/4 stitches

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I'm looking for supplies.  I'm looking for cross stitch accessories like recipe boxes, jars, cards, and all that neat stuff you see in cross stitch books and magazines.  I found framcraft.com, but they're UK based and I was hoping for something in the US. 

Thanks!

I'm a bit confused when you say you want supplies such as recipe boxes, jars and cards
and calling these items cross stitch accessories.  I know some people make jar covers from fabric with cross stitching on it.  Is this what you are referring to?  Otherwise, I don't see the connection.
