    Morning!

    Louise and 23rdspiral - hope you are feeling better today...my head has started to clear and the nose has stopped running, though the coughing is still about...so my ribs are aching everytime I sneeze or cough...no fun!

    I couldn't get much sewing done as wearing my glasses made my head/eyes hurt lots (too much pressure on the sinuses). Got some knitting done though, as I could hold it far enough away not to need my glasses :rotfl:.

    Will post piccies of what have managed to get done later on in the week...need to catch up with other stuff about the house...aaargh!! :(

    You've got loads done, it's looking great :T

    Have you found the guidelines have helped you stitch faster?


    Yeah I find it means that my eyes go cross eyed less lol! It does really help although it is slightly time consuming to draw them out in the first place it definitely saves time later on! Thanks for the advice!

    Thanks for the nice comments :)
    Keep on comping!

    Sorry I didn't get to post this over the weekend, as hoped.

    I'll probably make this into a card for my mum this year, but will end up stitching it again for myself too!

    I'm thinking that since it took me 5 years to dig it back out from UFOland I might keep this one abd get it framed for myself :D

    My mum and aunt both have big Christmas ones that I have made already so I don't have to feel guilty lol :)
