Not that I am keen
! I just thought it would be good to start early! Since my boiler has died I have decided to make quilts for the family for next year so that we have fabulous warm things to snuggle up to!

I'd like to give this a go. I must admit I'm not very crafty but I do like cross stitch. This year I did a picture for my granddaughter but I thought I'd like to do one for my mum and my daughter for next year.Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts - DFW Nerd 323
