    I have decided to do J H Pless - Glasgow. My husband is my second one (and I would like to let him know he is important) and I still don't use his name as yet professionally (long story). Also he knows me as Jenny.

    Really enjoying doing this stitch.

    Will wash and iron it before I send.

    BTW - anyone heard from from MrsMac?

    sweetcarer ;)
    :j cross stitch forever, housework whenever :j

    No problem at all, I'm happy to PM my address to anyone that wants to take up that offer and then I could post all the squares in one go to Lellypants. ;)

    I started my square today, so here's today's lunchtime progress:

    It's my lunchtime cross-stitch, so hopefully at least 20 minutes a day, depending on weather I need the internet or not.

    you did ALL that in your lunchtime!?! :eek: oh my! :T
