Glad you're doing well, and no, it's not just you. I've got all mine on bobbins but they're in one of those four-drawer plastic chest things and it upsets me that they're not all lined up I bought some threads and boxes on ebay last night, so they'll all be moving into there and looking all beautiful

Still lurking but not stitching much - count down til stitching hols (ie school summer hols) is on and I have to plan what I want to get stitched while I sit in park watching dd/ds on their bikes all summer.

Sorry to hear the news about your dad Louise - you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers ((hugs))

I'm another one lurking but not stitching. I've been busy knitting my dil sent me a message asking if i could make matching hats for her and her new baby and she wanted them to look like dr who's tardis. She don't want much lol. So armed with hopefully the right coloured wool but no pattern i have done my best . My 19 year olds think they are cool and they like them but i'm not sure.

Louise so sorry to hear your dads news i hope everything goes ok for him.

Bikerchick i hope things are going well for you too.

That really made me laugh.

Hope things are getting better for you. Have you heard anymore about starting your new job yet ?

Soyy to hear your dads news Louise. I can't say better than everyone else *hug*

I'm off work today, reduction in hours after redeployment. So am planning on breaking the back of Val's card. Am very embarrassed I've missed her birthday already.

I also have to decide if I'm going away this wknd volunteering. My OH has pulled out but will still go away elsewhere. So I could camp in the rain alone or curl up and stitch and unpack more house. Hummm....

Well I done it today I cancelled my cross stitcher subs today wasn't happy for a while with it, part of my past gone.

Awe, *hugs* sweetcarer. I know that was a hard decision for you. I'm sure he would want you be enjoying it so wouldn't mind at all that you've cancelled. I hope u don't mind me saying but your still apparent love is far more of a wonderful gift and legacy (not quite right word) than a mag that no longer does what it did could ever be. *hug*.

Wow, that's an odd but cool request. Well done! I Would be interested to see a photo.

This is a hypothetical thought from my DSis actually. She's found a small (but expensive IMO) kit on a website and if she zooms in on the picture she thinks she could use it as a chart and stitch it using her own stash.

I've told her it would be breach of copyright. Does this fall into the same category as a ?
