I finally gave in the other week and ordered some My Big Toe Designs.

They are a Christian based cross-stitch design company located in Boise, Idaho, but unfortunately, dont sell their designs to the public themselves.  I therefore had to find a vendor over here, and chose Lekker Threads from which to order copies of  Reflections (MBT-45) ,  Padre Nuestro (MBT-031) and The Name Of God (MBT-037) .  Now I ordered on the 28th October, and got an automatic email out of them accepting my order.  I then got no other emails until last Friday (the 17th November) to say the order was on the way – by the time I got home the order was already there.  The wording on one was in Spanish, the others in English.  No major loss, as I know enough cross stitch (and enough Latin based languages!) to take a stab at the Spanish directions.

I dont know whether to be unimpressed with the service or not.  The items I ordered turned up with no chasing. It was nearly 3 weeks to get the order though, and no email or stuff on the website saying “There may be some delay in postage because……..”. Not all people have multiple languages. I’m not sure I could recommend them with much enthusiasm.
