Yellow yarn anchor for my kit

on April 2013, My mom bought me some Royal paris needlepoint kit. montague and Little girl with her mirror. I decided to make a second one since she was so cute and the color so vibrant.. However when iam in the middle of the process i found something odds in the kits. i never found yellow yarn anchor at all inside the kits. if i forgot/drop to somewhere or in the beginning it isn't exist at all. the answer is the second one. this is my needlepoint kit that lack of yellow yarn anchor thread


I try my stitcher's friend suggestions that i should send my email complaints to coatscraft (manufacture which produce anchor threads) directly. I try to send email complaints to three coatscraft (UK, France and also Philliphines). I hope Philipphines will have fast respond since the location is near from my country only takes 2-3 hours with flight. Surprisingly, Coatscraft in United Kingdom who response my email first

Iam happy receive that email. i hope they can delivering their promise to send me the yellow yarn anchor threads for my little girl and her mirror. Is there anyone have same problem like this before? 

and there is another updates for my WIPS that last week i have made.. I finished almost pages 1 for Parisian bicycle (Dimensions) kit since i participated in SAL Dimensions which held on this November and stitching competitions on April 2014.


I also buy some new hand dyed threads from my stitcher's friends and metallic DMC threads for my JE project. I really love it the color and hesitate to use it for stitching *err =__=a


Thank you for visiting and reading my blog! adios! :*

i'm ready to start SAL garden girl which is starting today. I use 18 CT cream Aida and my thread collection at my home

That's why i think i'm kinda busy in such a few months, It uneasy organize two events SAL in almost the same time seriously but i'm glad to join in this event i can know and meet every stitcher in Indonesia.. :') 

In the same time, my elementary school's friends got married in 3rd February 2013. She invited me to her wedding's reception and i thought Central javanese wedding record will be perfect for her. I knew she loves with handicraft also like mine


Title: Central Javanese Traditional wedding
Designed by: Blue Moon
Size: 20 x 30 cm ++
Date Timeline: 26th January - 4th February 2013
Contains of : full stitch, 1/4 stitch, 3/4 stitch and blended metallic gold

I used frame that already hanging on my bedroom's wall. the original mat actually just plain white color and i have idea to change it with gift's paper which has Batik Sido Mukti kawung pattern.. the bride usually batik for her dress/cloths so i think it will be perfect one i combined this gift paper with the cross stitch itself. how about your opinion? are they more adorable?
these is the example the real one central java's wedding costumes :
