Oh I think you have justified yourself Dorastar - hope you and your daughter will have many hours of enyoyment with it.

Just sitting down with a cuppa as I have been 'doing the kitchen' - you know when it takes a bit more than a flick of the cloth'. So while the floor dries off I thought I would have five minutes and a bit of a catch up. Sitting down justified ????

Bit of a nip outside but is a lovely day here.

Hi everyone,

Sorry I've not posted for a while but was waiting till I could FINALLY post some pics! Tiny things as ever, but they have taken me ages - find it hard to stitch when it gets dark so early and feels like night time

These are the two cards I have finished - I know I've posted the snowman before but he is framed and posted (Royal Mailed) now

Was really pleased with the door when I'd finished, but then I framed it without realising you could see the threads behind the material Oh well never mind its done now and sent. Adds to the homemade character I guess, will be checking next time thou, I wont do that again! :rotfl:

Lovely day here too today but cold and a lot of black ice about. Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend x

Ashamed to admit I've done no stitching so a christmas present for a friend won't be done til January..oops.

I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend. I am full of nervous apprehension as I am dreading the forthcoming week at work. I suspect it is going to be busy and stressful and I just want to fast forward the clock to 12.30pm on Friday when I finish for xmas.

I have yet to pick my stitching project for the festive break. What does everyone else have planned as their xmas stitching project ?

Hi Guys

Been a hectic year and not much time for sewing/forums so my new years resolution is... sew more and be on forums more LOL..

I have a few mates expecting babies early part of next year so I bought a Bobbie G designs sampler chart (and a tonne of thread!). I'm scanning it in this week so if anyone would like a copy then please PM me with your email address and I will send to you by the end of the week
Equally anyone willing to do a PDF swap of any baby sampler charts they have I would be very grateful !
Heres the design of the chart

Hi Ladies ,
Just thought i'd pop by to see you all . Since my illness in summer i just can't seem to get back to normal. Doc thinks it's shock but i don't know. There also seems to be some worry that i may have early onset dementia . I can't remember owt lol so doesn't bother me but my oh and the kids are worried.
Hope You are all well or getting better i will try to catch up with everyone and everything you've all been doing.
Big thank you too to chicky for reminding me you're all here .
