1. Hobbies & Games

Discuss in my forum

I visit other About.com sites fairly often. I use the food sites for help with cooking (my family is grateful for all I have learned there). I visit other hobbies sites because Cross Stitch may be my life, but I like to dabble in other crafty activities now and again too. I like to learn a great deal, so I visit the educational sites too. And, I also enjoy the fashion and entertainment areas too, especially About.com Gossip.

In all my travels through the portals of About.com, I'd never realized that we have About.com Shakespeare until recently! Who knew we had a site devoted entirely to good old William Shakespeare?

I immediately signed up for the Shakespeare newsletter! I also took one of Lee's quizzes and I am proud to say, I got 7/10 questions right. (I get all those Henry's mixed up.)

Wonder why I am blithering on about Shakespeare? The free Never Doubt I Love pattern is based on a quote from Shakespeare. The quote is from a letter Hamlet wrote Ophelia. The free Never Doubt I Love chart will be good as a wedding sampler, a Valentine present, or just to let your sweetie know how you really feel.

The pattern is in three parts that may be stitched individually or as a whole.

I have a few other patterns based on Shakespeare's sayings, including the Now Join Hands Wedding pattern and the Dreams Saying chart.

What are your favorite sayings from Shakespeare? And, more important, did you beat my quiz score? Share using the comments section below.

This is beautiful – love the script of the words! Especially lovely for Shakespeare fans like me.

I have this pattern in Gothic script – I want to use varigated thread as I think it will look really good. I love the about.com shakespare’s “channel” but then I love Shakespeare!

hi

i wonder if anyone can help me. i moved house and have mislaid a pattern that i love, it was in a magazine (no i cant remember which one) and was zodiac based, the pattern was designed to allow you to sew each sign as a seperate project and showed children with animals e.g a child wearing a pair of old fashioned pantaloons and a boater with his back to us looking at a lion (Leo), a child in a bonnet and bopeep dress walking next to a goat (Aries). i would love to get hold of this pattern again.

thanks
