Spiral - sorry to hear that you don't feel your normal self. If there's anything we can do just let us know - we have broad shoulders. Have a virtual hug. :grouphug:

Some more (((hugs))) on the way spiral.

Hope you're recovering too Ailsb

Love owl HPSauce - I've done him too

Well done chicky - Troutbeck looked really well with that frame.

Gorgeous candlelight Louise

Really liked the heart pic/cushion (sorry I can't remember who posted).

I've been stitching a fire engine for my brothers birthday and it is driving me crazy. It's simple enough but I'm doing it on 18ct with 2 strands instead of 16ct and it just doesn't seem to be that neat really. Anyhow I'm sticking with it now. Still awaiting some of the threads from Across Town as they were out of stock. Will post a piccie when its done.

Take care everyone

...I found another UFO


Was looking for the threads for my ballerina and in a bag inside a bag I discovered this:

Joan Elliots Christmas Spirit (Crossstitcher Oct 2007)




So I can either do the Ballerina, a page of touched by magic or finish that one

Decisions decisions.....:rotfl:

:rotfl: Thanks for making me smile on this cold & foggy day.


Meant to stitch on Tuesday but got into the series 'Call the Midwife' that I have in the sky box so none done tues. Did get a section finished yesterday though that I wanted to get done so that I could put the fabric back onto the larger frame and work on it 'landscape style' again.

LMAO:rotfl:

No chance of that - decided the ballerina will stitch up quicker so got started on that last night.

FINALLY got all the kids back to school today!! :j

Whilst waiting for paint to dry so that I can get another coat on I did some internet surfing ending up on ebay looking at cross stitch.

I stumbled across this kit http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KAMA-SUTRA-CROSS-STITCH-TAPESTRY-NEEDLE-CRAFT-KIT-FUNNY-SEX-GIFT-HEN-NIGHT-NEW-/250903818341?pt=UK_Collectables_WeirdStuff_RL&hash=item3a6b087065

DO NOT OPEN IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED.

Okay who is going to be brave enough to stitch it and then display it afterwards???

Off to get another coat on the wall now.
