My suggestion is that we all pull together, and help out those that have missed letters INSTEAD of voting for the next in line of the alphabet.

Hi motoandnutty, I'm so sorry that more people did not heed your very sensible suggestion regarding CuteAlphabets.
The result is that a lot of people were unable to gather the complete alphabet (including some who were unable to get certain letters due to the site being down.)
I was lucky to get them all, but am sad for others who could have had the chance if EVERYONE were to be as considerate as you and the SiCKie/Cuties are.
I hope more people will give a thought for others in the future.

This is what I have been thinking alfiedak!
Sadly motoandnutty's prediction that there would be little time at the end, has proved to be correct. (I have them all as well, but that is little consolation to those that don't.)

Not everyone, who votes for the next Gift design, actually comes to read the community posts so I'm afraid your requests will probably not be read by most of the voters.

I notice that most of you posting here are quite new to Cute so you may not be aware that there is already a system in place to request missed designs, it is considered only polite to make your request and wait your turn.

If you urgently require the gift design you could always support this site by buying the one you missed for one little dollar, thus avoiding a mutiny amongst the people queuing ahead of you.

Sorry to disagree. I have missed many in the past, but rely on THIS SITE's CUTIES to determine what is next. Perhaps ALL could follow the suggestions from THIS SITE's CUTIES, and get in line for voting-requests. If you search other postings, you will find there is someone who tracks voting requests for missed designs. Please reconsider your comments.

I think that this thread was started with regard to the designs at CUTE ALPHABETS, not here at Cute Embroidery - as has been pointed out, it is not at all easy to get repeats of letters there, even if they have been missed due to the site being down. EVERYBODY who posts here is a "THIS SITE's CUTIE" - they could not post if they weren't - and I haven't seen anywhere that has a list of voting requests for CuteAlphabets apart from this thread.
If there is somewhere else, please point it out to me.
I applaud motoandnutty, and all the others that are prepared to help those that have missed something, and don't understand what it is that you disagree with.

Unfortunately there are still way too many votes for the 'next in line' letter for any others to get a look in. So far I see that the A B and P are needed, and I will be asking everyone I know to vote for each of these (in the hope that one of them will get through).
If everyone spreads the word NOT to vote for the next 'obvious' one, we may prevail :)

i'm on board with you.

have already missed one or two and hope somehow to recover those in some way. let us know how to go about it. maybe wait until all the letters are posted and then - what? great idea, bless you...

As motoandnutty has said, there is no point waiting until the end - a new alphabet was started the day after the last one ended, so that is TOO LATE!
I have read that Veronika has said that she won't start a new alphabet until the present one has been completed, so it makes perfect sense to try for missed letters BEFORE the end.
If NONE of us voted for the next in line letter, that would make it SO MUCH easier for the missed letters to win the vote.
I for one will be voting for the P today, and the B after that.

I was one of those unable to DL here at Cuties yesterday. My pages were loading weirdly and I'm not sure if the site was updating or if it was the update to Firefox addons the day before (there was another update last night). I had the same problems with the sister sites too. All appears fine today but yes, I suspect I wasnt the only one to miss the freebies. Oh well, they are free so I'm not complaining but its lovely of you to offer to vote for a repeat of what some of us missed. So I'll go vote now too :) Thankyou *4U Dana xXx

Thank you Dana, I think that it would be best to try for the P AFTER the next letter has been won, as there are already WAY too many votes to beat - but if NO-ONE votes for the next letter, it would be fairly easy to get the missed ones.
(Fingers crossed!)

I have them all except A, so please vote for A to, thank you.

I missed A also, and of course the P due to the site not loading properly for me. Will go vote for P
