Can help me find a real life item for me!! (i am not sure if this is possible but am willing to give 500k to the person who helps the most) I have been looking everywhere online and i think i am just going about it the wrong way. Here are the Items Details: It is a Counted Cross Stictch made by Dimensions company, also frequently called their "Creative Accents" collection The name is either "Wild Call in Winter" or "Call of the Wilderness" Heres a picture: 
You can go online to any craft store site you can think of and look around for this product. I got it at wal mart before but i doubt you can find it there anymore. The person who finds this product at a store's website that says it is in stock (not "online order only") and tells me where i can find it, Will recieve the one million tu. If there is no way that is possible, the person who finds the cheapest online price for this kit will win the million tu. (this includes shipping and hanedling etc.) Thanks for stopping by :) i am glad for people who are willing to help |

Click Here If you click on that, it will bring you to a website that has 'Call of the Wilderness' for $23.00. I'm not sure if you can buy it at a store or not, I can't figure it out. But good luck getting that counted cross stitch! Or http://www.cross-stitch-centre.co.uk/acatalog/animals.html it's 28.50 there. But i think its online buy only

This is why this is important to me: I am a Graphic Design major and i have used the pattern to this cross stitch to create this picture on the computer in microsoft paint. I recently have lost the pattern or it was stolen/ thrown away by my parents, and i can not get it back. Here is how far i have gotten before i lost it:  |

thats the unfortunate thing, the way a "Counted" cross stitch works (and the computerized pic) is that it has a pattern that tells you everything. there are two big pages that u put together to give a detailed set of symbols for what color and how many strands of thread to use in the needle, its set up like a grid and its imposible to finish either projects without it, and i cant just buy the pattern seperately, nor can i find a picture of the pattern online. i really wish i didnt loose it, i have highlited all the squares (and stitches) i have already done. even with a new pattern i will have problems knowing what i have already done. |

That's true. I can't really say much about that comment because for the most part I have no clue how to do that stuff. I only have a Graphics Tablet because I like drawing stuffs. *^-^* And I'm guessing that you would need a gridded blank picture and the picture itself to even start out, or am I way off? I tihnk I'm just confusing myself further more. XP

STARLET :) that would be amazing if you could scan it :) i ahve actually bee nlooking online for a picture of the pattern, but of course it can not be found because then no one would buy the kit lol. mine is hardly as complete. ive taken mor fondly of doing it on the computer because u can do multiple "stitches" at a time lol. Ive been working on it forever to, but im a little slower and younger too i guess. Heres how far i am on it: 
Not a really good pic of it. It needs to be washed and ironed but i got the first wolf and the trees, moon and most of the clouds done. |

oh dude, your big wolf is awesome. everybody says to start cross stitch projects in the center, but I didn't on this one specifically because of how complex the wolf pattern is. lol I started with the sky, then worked my way around on the right hand side with the trees, little wolf, snow and now making my way on the foreground trees and then the background trees. big wolf will be done last. xP and yeah, when I go up to my parents' place this weekend (I live 2 hours away from them) I can use their scanner to scan those pages. might have to do it in 4 images because the pages are so big, but hey. xP also.. I used pencil to shade out the stitches I've already done, you can still see all the symbols just fine in real life to be able do the project again so I'm hoping it will scan over just as clear and well. =) |

That would be great if it works :) its not the end though. i have a couple of friends looking out for the kit for me as well just in case. But it would be awsome if i can just get the part i need. I focus on the wolves always. i just think i screwed up the counting on my cross stitch somewhat, and i havent been working on the cloth one for that reason. plus i can fix a mistake in paint way quicker and without as much trouble as i would cutting a stitch or unthreading it.

I did mess up on the little wolf (and the mistake is visible when compared to the picture). he was nearly done and I realized he somehow didn't have enough blank stitches as he should've for his belly outline. I would've had to go back a long way to fix it.. so just kind of made up how his belly is. otherwise so far all the stitches are exactly where and how they should be. =)
