    mrs-moneypenny it could be a frozen shoulder, in which case you have my sympathy!
  • Afternoon all, couldn't make time this morning to even pop-in, lovely to see Mrs Moneypenny and Chalky back -bet you missed us. Hope the Quack can sort out your problem
    Delain, I bet you it will be unique when it's finished but at least you achieved it.
    Off to the Deer park this afternoon, we have to pick up our neighbours son - who is working there during the hols, I am so looking forward to seeing them - my Dad used to look after deer so I will try and not cry too much.
    Back later then

    I have almost finished the 1st Friendship blanket but want to crochet an edging to it to give it a real finish. The 2 other Friendship blankets are coming along beautifully. Once again thanks to you all
    Try and do a good deed every day.
  • Evening everyone!! I've been MIA for a few days - we had a short break in London with our son and his girlfriend. Really enjoyed it. Manged to get out to Wembley Stadium for the stadium tour (love my football), and also went to see Phantom of the Opera. What a fabulous show. Even managed to get some knitting done on the train there and back and also in the hotel - although it was a bit hot for knitting.
    Hope everyone is well - cuddles and hugs for those who need them today.
    Chalky - the blanket looks fab. Looking forward to seeing pics of the friendship blankets as and when. Thank you for co-ordinating this for us.
    Have a good night all.

  • Chalky - that blanket is looking the business, as Ann says thank you for co-oridinating it all and doing the sewing up - which no one seems to like doing.

    chalky the blanket's looking great, can't wait to see the others.

    shezmit.....ahhhh, have you got a special little cushion with a tooth pocket? I found a pattern for one somewhere or other (American of course) and thought it was a lovely idea.
