? um, should i admit this, but, um, what you talking about ?

Marru had posted earlier that her avatar below her name was a design she had found online, and I thought it was a good idea. I may be teaching Granny to suck eggs here but you can have a picture below your name if you want and I never did as I hate pictures of myself so was pleased to steal the idea of using a picture of the design I am currently stitching....:)

after struggling with rubbish internet for the last few weeks I am finally back online and can't believe how much you lot chat now I am going to have to sit down with a cuppa later and catch up!:T
Still need to plan out my projects for the year for gifts etc but now I am online again sure seeing all your progress will encourage me.
Does anyone know if I can post photos yet not sure I have made enough posts!
While I am here wondering if anyone has issue 165 of The World of Cross stitch I am desperate to do the Charlie and Lola picture for my daughters birthday but its next thursday so thinking even if I ordered a back issue it wouldn't get here in time for me to do it so wouild be really grateful if anyone can help me:)

. How's your dad anyway?

Dad's fine thanks, waiting for an appointment to have his heart scan before the bypass.
I feel a little better each day and I hope it stays that way

craftygranny - the bears look great

caroline - wow you've done loads! It always makes me really jealous when I see how quickly some of you progress, I wish I could stitch that quickly. Although it's probably good I don't or I'd end up spending a fortune :rotfl:

shelly - hope you are feeling a lot better soon, it sounds like you're having an awful time.

dorastar - sounds like you had a lovely birthday, I hope I'm as lucky when mine comes!

Elle1267- hope you're having a great birthday too.


I'm starting to sort out which threads I need for the Dragon Rider HAED (thanks to witchwoopiggy's the other week). That'll definitely be a slow project, but I really want to start it! Not much stitching going on today as I've got to tidy the house for a viewing, and then I don't want any mess out anywhere.

Have a great day everyone

Stole your idea and used my avatar to show the piece I am working on at the minute...good idea as I don't like showing pictures of myself and couldn't think what else to use...lol

Cute idea! Might do that with my next project.
