    Just popping on quickly to wish everyone a nice bank holiday weekend. Just about to head off to Clacton for a few days. Taking my stitching, so hopefully I'll get some more 'Cakes' stitched. See you all next week! xxx

    I buy the Kreinik and Mill Hill Beads for my next planned project in the Wimblebees sale but they cancelled the pattern and then my benefits got mixed up so I cant afford the threads and the pattern is double the price anywhere else which I still cant afford.
    Bubbles what pattern was it? Someon here might have it?

    Talking of which...must cut up the Chocolate & Beetroot Brownies and get them into tubs before heading off to bed myself.


    Please could you nudge me a recipe or its whereabouts for the brownies they sound yum.

    Have been off the stitching trying to get house ready for going back to work/school next week. Have gutted the garage and recycled 5 bags of books as well. Have crocked my foot though so planning to sit still for rest of evening and weekend if possible and get some stitching done:T
