Cross Stitch Cafe 2011

Oh, you definitely should go! It's kind of in the middle of nowhere but lovely scenery & right on the river. Take a picnic if it's a nice day.

Shelly - glad to hear your Dad's through the worst of it. I know it's horrible to have a family member on Critical Care but my experience is that they are mavellous and treat not just the person in the bed but the family as well.

Just a quick update before I go off to bed. Haven't had chance to do any stitching tonight. We are off on holiday tomorrow afternoon so been busy getting ready. As we are going in a tent I'm not taking any cross stitch with me, I don't think the light will be good enough. I'm taking knitting instead so not completely craft free.

Anyway this is the progress on my wedding sampler over the last 2 days, feel fairly happy with it at the moment.

Thanks ladies.

Mum phoned Papworth this morning at 7.30am and apparently Dad was sitting up enjoying a cup of tea! He had a very good night, aches abit from lying in the same position for hours but apart from that he's doing very well so they are moving him onto a ward later today :j

It's also Mums 60th birthday today so I'll let you know how she liked the fairies when I get a chance to post again. We are going to visit Dad so will be a late night tonight.


postingalwaysposting. The cat keyring is very cute. I had a kit of one once, messed up his paw and made him look like he had a club foot

Ailsb. Very nice progress on the church.

Have a nice day everyone.

I think it's just that we're all at the age where having a baby is appropriate.

Personally, I'd rather eat arsenic filled pasties than have a baby

I will try and post the photo they send me when he's out. I guess she'll not be moving much this evening

Yeah, someone who feels the same as I do about having a baby! Loved having cuddles with my godson, but when he started screaming, I was happy to give him back.
