It was me that stitched the BOTD 'Hitched' & I know I still have the chart...somewhere! Can hunt for it if you wanted me to.

Ah Ruth_honey it was your "hitched" one I remembered. It is so good it stuck in my memory

Awww, thank you! I only posted a pic recently although it was stitched years ago.

I love BOTD designs, and that one is lovely.

Well the ebay buy "on the beach" has arrived at last, after 4 weeeks! Can't wait to start it, but feel I should finish my ducks before they become a UFO.
Lottie is drying as I type and shall be framed tomorrow, cutting it fine, but have had a busy day. I shall post pics once I have framed her.

I baked a batch of buns and a cake ready to ice for DD, but they were not right thats the trouble with egg replacement cakes, they don't always taste right. So I have now remade them using cocoa powder in the hope they will now be a bit sweeter.

I have painted a big tree on canvas ready for my party games, hopefully it is big enough for my apples to fit on lol.

Well, I best get some rest, I have 24 buns and a cake to decorate in the morning :eek:.

Not sure what do do now tbh, can't be bothered with Corrie, dunno whether to get out a UFO or do some Xmas stuff

Wow! you are all so nice to take the time to look at wedding charts for me. I love the Michael Powell Church but a wee bit too pricey.

Thank you all so much. And an extra big thanks to Crickett1234 - I will be in touch.

morning all
Louise your mermaid looks stunning
thank you all for the kind comments on my stitching, the orca was actually a bargain carboot find someone had made a start on the fin and given up, it did take me a while to resort the threads and get going but for 75p im certainly not complaining.
