Very quiet on here! Guess everyone's busy stitching :-)

I wish, apart from the teddy I finished at the weekend, I've yet to pick my piglet cushion back up yet. Been busy getting my eBay items packed up for the post office today.

I'm going to try and do at least a little bit tonight. I must post an update pic for you too, cos you haven't seen it yet.

Well apart from the tiling in the kitchen, the whole house in now finished. Not bad for 8 months work! So should actually be able to settle down to a serious winter of stitching.

Still a few outside jobs to do, new back fence and moving the patio but they can wait until spring.

Have just bought a chair for the conservatory off ebay for £6.06, collecting it after work tomorrow night. May have to re-cover the cushions as they are not my style but that will be my stitching chair as the light is so good out there.

Guess what???

I finished...with a week to spare! :j:j:j


This was it on the 18th of Oct when I dragged it kicking and screaming from UFOland (or was that fuss maybe me...:o) :rotfl:where it had been dumped in 2006



Completed this afternoon - it's huge, dunno when I will get it framed :




Chuffed to bits.:D:beer: Next challenge isn't a biggie, just doing coasters between now and Xmas, and need to find/design a suitable wedding sampler.

That is a big piece!

My aida still hasn't come into the shop, will try again on thurs. I'm doing some tree decorations out of a magazine and I only have some back stitching to do and then I will be without a project:mad: I feel a little lost at the thought:o

So all of us that said you would complete it by the end of the month were right. (Unless you said end of Oct )

Happy days today the extra bits for my Needlecraft Magic came today, which is brilliant, so I have everything I need for any future projects from the folders.

Well done Louise!!! We knew you could do it, even with the ambitious timescale. It looks fab!

The materials for my next project have arrived today. I might start it tonight, or I might go do some garage sorting so I can get soon-to-be-ex-hubby's things out there... hmmm, I'll let you know what I decide.

(((hugs))) sweetcarer I'm sorry for your lost. My nanny died a few years ago too, I know how you feel. I like to think she is always looking down on us and sometimes I still talk to her. Your Gran is probably looking down on you too.
