    I have pretty much the same planned for tomorrow as well !

    Flat Eric - did you want the Margaret Sherry kit off WOXS? If you pm me your details and i'll pop it in the post. Not going to have time to do it and someone who will may as well have it.

    Also, can't remember who wanted it but I have the poppies chart from XS Gold - did you need it? ;);)

    I personally haven't done any stitching this week and am now contemplating magazines to add to my to do list - I was so trying to save money til you showed us them Chicky! Love the Me to You Bears on the front of one and like the look of the Christmas gifts one but will see if Mr Smith has it as i'd like a look through first.

    Enjoy your weekends xx

    That sounds lovely and relaxing :T



    Thought I would post a pic of how far I got with Corrie. It won't be a permanent UFO, I will still need to get it done for Christmas :)
