    Hi Dora,

    I've PMd you with my addy. I'm sure i did originally, but i've done sooo many fabric swaps this last month, it's possible i've been an idiot. What i do know is that i'd never have been able to sort out all you did, i'm in awe of your dedication and organisation!

    I do hope to get started soon as i'm working at Glastonbury festival for a week later this month and can't imagine it would be a good place to stitch - far too muddy!

    Ok don't worry, just pm your address and ill send some out to you, i happen to have some in my little thread stash :)

    Dont worry I have some now. I popped in hobbycraft on the way home today so bought a skein. Thought it would be easier and just as cheep as the postage with out putting you out of pocket.

    Hobby Craft must be making some mark-up on anchor and dmc threads.

    Thanks for the offer anyways.

    On the stitching front i have the clothes of the fairy stitched now - I have enough thread left to stitch his clothes again, so i think other than the 333 problem I had, you've done a great job of providing enough thread Dora.

    Hi Dorastar, don't be embarrassed, you did a fantastic job! I don't envy what you had to go through sorting all the colours, names and addresses out!

    Did you manage to find my address again or do you need me to pm it to you? I'm still happy to paypal postage to you again if you need it. I don't want you being out of pocket after all this?

    Yep is on its way in the morning.

    Is done apart from you have no surname on the envelope - unless your postie is used to calling you 'spiral' it might be handy :rotfl:

    Holiday has been delayed for a day cos the lady lending us her cottage forgot her husband was there till late Thursday so have got a bit longer to stitch/send stuff out. Am looking forward to getting my quilt square started then!

    Hello - Quilt material's arrived today. Thanks Dorastar.

    I've made a start - I will try and get myself sorted out with photos when I (hopefully) have some more time at the weekend.

    Holiday delayed cos the person we are borrowing house from is a vicar and has offered to stay and help after yesterday's awful tragedy (just up the road from where we are staying).

    Still not heard from Craftlady or Jailhousebabe for their stitching stuff - all others have been posted and hopefully received by tomorrow morning. :j

    Got to get on with my square now:eek:

    My fabric, threads & needle arrived today-thank you, Dorastar! Just need to figure out how to change the ink in the printer, so I can print off a decent copy of the chart and I can get stitching!

    Thanks for that offer Emzy, but i popped into the local town near to my OH's house and found a lovely little needlecraft shop and was in heaven, so i got a skein of 333, and tied my hands behind my back so i didn't buy anything else :rotfl::rotfl:
