Last night i joined in Friday Night With Friends hosted by the lovely Cheryll.
I started this little Christmas decoration stitchery Thursday night & finished it last night & discovered this morning the threads dye had run. Grrr. Looks like i'll be re-stitching this one.
I almost finished this one before bedtime. Just hope it doesn't run when i wash my tracing pen out. Pop on over to Cheryll's & see who else joined in last night what they worked on.
Happy Stitching,

If you are using Cottage Garden Threads contact them re dye running! He looks cute!!!
That is such a shame Jeanette. Such gorgeous designs...love the reindeer. I hope you can remedy it.
love these,just a hint Jeanette if your thread is cottage threads,i soak them in water with salt and then rinse them out and let them dry on a tea towel and i havent had any problems since,good luck.xx
That is sad to see. I do hope your other one will be ok! xx debbie
Gorgeous designs shame about the thread :-(
Beautiful stitching but such a shame about the dye running. I had a lovely brazilian embroidered doily that used to run each time it was washed. I washed it in nappysan and gave it a quick rinse and then immediately ironed it dry with an iron and hairdryer. It worked a treat for getting the bleeding fixed but I have to do it each time I wash it. Worth a go anyway.
Oh no! I would hate to lose all that work. The designs are so cute.

Lovely Jeanette......real shame about the thread...
What a pain. Lovely stitcheries too.
Hugs......
Oh how annoying for you, they are very sweet stitcheries.
Grr not nice thread! I do love these stitcheries!
Oh dear, how very disappointing for you. Maybe you could use a different thread and see if that makes a difference.
Oh what a shame, you had done such lovely stitching. Good luck for the next one....
What a shame, all that beautiful workmanship....good luck with the next one.
they are so cute - but I would just keep washing it - I once had a Danish Flower thread run in a cross stitch - hot water and OMO did the trick!
Oh how annoying. I use a dye catcher when I wash mine and it works well.
Love the reindeer stitchery.. lovely thread.
Hi Jeanette -bah, what a pest about the thread colour running... hope the reindeer doesn't get it too x
Cute Rudolph, sorry about the thread running after your beautiful stitching.
