Thanks to all the girls in the Cross Stitch Cafe! You're all fantastic! :A0 -
a mix of cartoon and realistic animalsThe square lo0oks great chicky... I didn't do my name on the MSE one...thought once was enough!!
Not done any sewing today...been sorting stuff out for a car-boot tomorrow morning. Back on the 'puter tonight to print off some signs and short descriptions of the tomato and chilli plants I am selling (surplus to requirements). I tend to grow unusual varieties, so they need a brief description.
Couldn't get logged on earlier as DS2 was watching the Scotland - Argentina rugby match, which they won 24 - 16!! Much better than that other match tonight (they only drew??!) Also watched bits of the Ireland - New Zealand match (NZ won) on the 'puter this morning, and England - Australia (Oz won) on TV this afternoon - trust my son to find 3 international rugby matches the second day of the football world cup!!! More next week too...great!! Much prefer the oval-ball game to the round one!
Now, must get my signs done....hope to make a few pennies tomorrow...and I will NOT buy more stuff/junk (!) to replace what we are selling...honest!!
Night, night...up early tomorrow...car's packed already though, and car-boot is in our village (only one a year), so not far to go.
Have a good Sunday everyone.

feeling lots better than I was though now
Chickywiggle Your squares look really great :j :T :T and nope I don't think we're putting name and county on those 'lettering' squares
Think you definitely made the right decision with the letter 'f'
lol you aren't silly 23rdSpiral and at least you haven't got lots of french knots to do now
Ruth your square looks lovely :j :T

a mix of cartoon and realistic animalsBack from the car-boot, even managed to get a bit of stitching done on my niece's bookmark before lunch!!
Did really well at the car-boot, making a profit of just under £80!! We might try a bigger one in a couple of weeks time, then what's left will be taken to a charity shop. Didn't spend any money, and paid for the pitch out of our takings...RESULT!! :j
Chicky, your square looks great, and the "f" is a great improvement on the original.
Right off to do more sewing, happing stitching!!!
