  • How come F1 - you tell us all you are la la - when you can do the kitchenette stitch without the aid of pictures, a crib sheet and no swearing either I bet? While I, after a year of practice on lots of different items am still struggling. There is something to be said for being la la so can I join that club too?
    EYES on the weather worms - well they are meant to be outside hanging in the WEATHER - OR am I dreaming that one and being far too sensible. on the back of the LABEL THINGAMIEJIG - YOU could have a warning - NOT A TOY - not suitable for under 5's or something along those lines. Raining today - yipeee means I get a craft day indoors WHEN I finish the jobs. Love and cuddles to you all, back later today

    Christmas presents made so far:-

    These cost pence to make and as my family love their charm bracelets I thought they would make a great present at a fraction of the cost:-

    and last but not least making great use of the "Birds Nest" knitted for Loving Hands Challenge:-

    Your craft photos are gorgeous I am dying to try one of those owls but must keep on track for the wedding!

    Jean -- Thank you so much for that link. I will definitely give it a try. Thanks for popping into blog.

    Ginny -- What a kind person-- lovely.

    Pfungi-- I am so glad the cataract op went well and I hope you make a quick and swift full recovery.

    Salome-- Lovely to see you back.

    Mrs Moneypenny-

    Evening all

    Met a friend in Birmingham this morning had a good shop around in the market got load's of bits I need, 4 coat buttons big ones, 10 medium and 12 small googly eyes, a couple of felt squares, 5mtrs gauze ribbon and 20 little bells for the christmas tree wreaths the whole lot for just about £6... well pleased and she gave me some extra bits of felt :)

    Had a nice lunch at the hotel we used to go to ages ago it was yummmm

    Been a funny sort of day though... I got home to some sad news, OH's Aunt Mary died this morning, we visited her on her 90th birthday in July and stayed over at her daughters on Portland for a couple of nights, then went back over to the caravan in Devon. We are waiting for the funeral date now from her son who lives in Spain.

    jean - I LOVE the weather worms, the lable really made me :rotfl:I aim to do some and the owls for the girls school christmas fayre.
    f1 - lovely photos,awww don't they look grown up when they go to seniors? your work is lovely the owls look so cute
    salome - hello welcome back from your travels
    ginny - ooo how kind of her 2 whole bags full

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATHY HOPE ITS BEEN A GOOD ONE :bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake:

    I have an octopus to sew up and an Irish Rose square to finish off for MrsTwins only got the ends to sew in though so it wont take long.
