Knit Your Square to Give Your Share - PART 4

mioliere

Hi everyone -

Chalky, I hope both you and DH are over your tummy bugs. How lovely that DD2 is in love! Glad you have sorted out the blog!

Pippa - so glad that you feel good; I'm sure the shot of brandy was useful!

Mrs Moneypenny - how is the loft project going?

Lovely links being posted here. I love the Scottie dog, and think I may just have to make one each for the two youngest GDDs! They may be in weird mixture of colours as I work through my stash, but that will hopefully add to their charm! As Chalky has said, I will have to have eyes in mine!

We are waiting to hear from the agent about the second viewing we had on Monday; the couple were here for ages with their builder, so we are hoping that they are just drawing up plans and that we will hear from them soon. BUT, and it's a big 'but', I am not going to be disappointed if we don't get an offer - as my mum often says, 'if it's meant to happen, it will happen'.

As for right now, I am still sort of getting the house ready for packing up, and I am sorting out the drawers in the bedrooms today. DH just thinks I am spring cleaning; he hasn't twigged that it is all to do with moving!

At the moment, it is lovely and sunny here, so I hope it will last longer than a few hours.

Hugs to all in need.

morning all
been in school for a meeting this morning so late in hope all are well

wasin the loft again yesterday said i wouldnt go up till next weekend but i put a dolls house on freecycle and a ladys coming for it this afternoon. while i was up there i got a couple of boxes of the kids old ornaments down, mostly cheap seaside trinket type stuff ive managed to cull 2 crisp box sized boxes down to 1 half sized box. all the rest have been washed rewrapped and are going down the CS shop.
finished two more hedgehogs last night while dallas was on so thats a bit more stash busted

hope everyone is managing to stay warm and play with their wooly stuff

I've found this; I think it's a lovely idea to add a pocket to a child's blanket for a favourite toy, and it would be so easy to do.

Hi everyone

Pippa - no news so far, but we're not holding our breath! Your Flickr photos are gorgeous!

A dull day here with rain now and again - surely spring is out there somewhere?

Hope everyone is having a good day.

still busy love sewing in the bedroom - but clearing up after myself and not liking that one bit. No rain yet so perhaps I will get out and about and do some exciting stuff today - if I can just make it as far as the poly tunnel without getting soaked it will be a huge bonus.

Hope you are all keeping safe and warm and snug - I did see the weather report for the UK and it looks terrible. Will be back in a bit

Hi

Hope those of you with snow are coping ok. We're just cold and damp, with little bits of snow now and then. Horrid weather makes it a good excuse not to go out and a good reason to stay in and knit :-)
Have a blessed and prosperous day. Hugs for all in need ((((hugs)))) Love you all.
