Ohhhh I can see it forming already...:rotfl: Is that all black, or are there various dark colours in there?

Least the pages are quite small, so you will feel as though you are zipping through them:cool:

Louise, that map design looks great
Sweetcarer, what is the finished design on your project?

Had a busy day but not been stitching (oops) had an impulse internet dweeb and found tickets for doctor who live and went and watched it with dd this afternoon. She is an immense fan and absolutely loved it and happily spent her birthday money on things she adores so everyone is happy - going to settle down to some serious stitching tonight, having earned mysef 5 million good mummy points:rotfl:

Had a great day and got loads of stitching dsone and i ordered some hoop frames of ebay although I have no idea how they work, i'm sure they are simple enough.

I love that everybody puts pics of their works in progress, it's lovely to see what gets done and what designs are out there.

By the way what does ufo stand for?

It stands for Unfinished Object I think! I can say I have one less UFO in my bag tonight as I have finished a scarf! Sorry it's not stitching but means that it's one more thing out of my bag so I can do some more stitching plus one more Christmas present not to buy;) I know she will like it as she saw it today and commented on how nice it is. She will also be recieving a cross stitch picture so will get on and frame that tomorrow and cross one person off my pressie list YAy:beer:

Yes, UFO is for Un-Finished Object. I'm getting closer to finishing my UFO of Santa and did some more on him tonight. I'll try to get a picture after work tomorrow but really must get to bed now.

Everyone is doing really well, especially witchwoopiggy, that HP design is going to be stunning when finished!

I love that design, had my eye on it for ages. No doubt it's going to look stunning when complete.


I actually stitched nearly all day yesterday after having done hardly anything last week. Not going to post an update pic though as I am just doing the top border so not much to see really

Am very excited that I just booked tickets for us to see Sarah Millican next March :j We are going with friends and it's taken me ages to pin hubby down to see if he's available on that day.
I'm not usually impressed by comediennes but she makes me laugh out loud!
