Hello Cuties, maybe someone can help me. I have a need for a conch sea shell design, I think it's called. You know the shell we used to hold up to our ear and hear the ocean, or so my mama said when I was little. We had one at home but I don't know where she got it.

Anyway, it doesn't have to be a filled stitch and about a 4x4 size, as I want to add Virginia Beach above it. It is to go on a purchased tote to be given away, on the bus trip next month, although I would like to get it done asap.
Any help is much appreciated.Have a great day/night where ever you may be-Toogie

Did anybody else go download the free designs at joydesigns and discover that she has died. Her sweet husband is keeping the pages up in her memory, as he can. I had a little cry.

I did and I remember I had gone there ages ago. I think I read it then, so it has been awhile. It was nice for him to do in her memory.
The conch shell she has is what I am looking for.

Probably so, I'll have to go see. I have been looking through pages here at Cute, but haven't ran across any yet. I wish we had a search button....

I guess you are going to Va Beach. That is my home. Lots of things to see and do plus a lot in the surrounding areas. Hope you all enjoy it.

Yes, we will be in Virginia Beach, colonial Williamsburg and Norfolk. Do you live there now or it was your hometown, growing up?

I must not have collected them, as I don't have many shells, real or designs-lol

Not sure it this is what you want or not. There is a font with a sea shell on it.

Thanks, I will have a look.
I don't know how you locate them.....but thanks

There are instructions in the Q&A done by jrob.
I just use whichever method fits my needs. Key words or "Tags" are usually a good way.

Use this link and put a keyword or tag at the end in the address bar

I'll take a look...have been making, and still am making, coasters. Thanks

Whew! just looked. I won't be paying $39 for a set that I only want to use one, probably just this one time AND to give the item away!
Thanks for showing me though. Doesn't hurt to look.

I know I didn't pay that much for the set and even now I never pay that much. I actually bought it 16 years ago! It was more affordable then.
