Sorry to hear that sweetcarer, but not sorry at the same time, if you know what I mean. They've put him through a lot of **** there and he's better off out of the place - their loss! xox

I'm off to the Stitch and Craft Show in Braintree, Essex today. No idea what it'll be like, it's their first there. We usually go to Ally Pally but its such a faff getting there even though it's only 25 miles.

I'm going with my sis who is a craft fanatic - her hobby of the moment is beads and jewellery-making. Mum (87) is coming with us as she likes cross stitch, although she can't manage very well at the moment as she has cataracts (waiting to see if they can be treated). So, none of us needs anything in the craft line but we're bound to come back with stuff. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

So, all in all I foresee a lot of money being spent by the Ericsmum family. (Plus we like regular coffee and danish breaks and a good lunch;)).

I think my post may well have been missed a few pages back.
I asked after which mag the Justin Bieber chart was in. DD is a HUGE fan & if I can get it it'll give me something to do 'secretly' whilst she's at school.

Thanks

or perhaps no one knew or had time to check?? is this any good?


Well baby bump is annoying me now!! (10 weeks and a little bit left). I am shattered at night (was in bed by 10.30 yesterday.... asleep on sofa by 9.30). think i managed oh at least 20 stitches.

tuesday I snuggled inbed with stitching at 8 but my bum (sorry TMI) was sooo sore/ itchy with the rashy bumps all over that my baby allergy has given me that I couldn't get comfy enough to actually sit and stitch!! :mad:

hmmm will i get any done tonight........... watch this space.

ohh and then midwife did not tell me nice news .... but not bad news. for those who aren't baby minded your bump (as you hit 28/30 weeks) should measure laying down approx 1cm for every week you are along. Well surprise surprise I'm measuring a week smaller!! DS1 was a week smaller all way through and was...........a week late!!!! Ohh please send 'not late' baby vibes to him and tell him mummy would quite appreciate him on time or a few days early!!

Hi Guys
Hope all is well.

Completed Valentines card for OH.. Here is pic..


Must take pic of wedding sampler I completed as well. Need more projects LOL. Atuin needs a frame rather than hoop as tension not right (it is over 22" x 16" so no surprises!)

Take care

All the valentines cards are lovely, ( i lost some of the threads for the card i was stitching on the plane, oops) and I think the John clayton seasons are great - I have some of his flwoer panels if anyone needs a wink.

Am off to the states with work - and if i get any time was thinknig of popping into a stitching shop as i keep seeing mentioned on here how much chepaer it is over there.... any guidance as to shop names (in Norfolk Va if that helps)
