Cross Stitch Cafe 2012

Love the Teddy Skoobie!
Enjoy your rest PP!

So Monday I woke up with a sore jaw, and I've had pain sort of behind my ear, sort of down my neck, sort of glandular since then. It makes my head all pressurey and spin when I bend over. Ibuprofen takes away the pain, and it isn't like any ear infection I've had. So my thoughts were is it A) a trapped nerve, a pulled muscle, C) the beginnings of an ear infection, or D) something else? I ran a quick Facebook survey, and everyone said to go Drs! (including my boss)

So I called in sick and braved bothering the Dr for something trivial... And the Answer is.... D) something else. I have unhappy lymph nodes due to an infection in a mere scratch from coppicing last wknd (on my head so couldn't see it). Am staying off work today, and have antibiotics to take, as being run down means my body couldn't cope with the little infection :0(

It's odd being off work but not 100% ill and incapable. So think I'll rest and stitch, thatsok isn't it? ;0)

If I can do it you can do it spiral

Managed to do three laps of the front room and kitchen this morning with just one crutch

now for some serious stitching.

Hope you start feeling a bit better spiral, enjoy your stitchy day.

So I've been driving myself mad all morning must have looked at thousands of charts on eBay, sew and sew and across town. And I just can't find what I'm looking looking for to do for my front room. I know what I want but I can't find it, maybe it doesn't exist ! Found a few I like though, so might have to settle for one of those. Never had this problem before! Normally have to many to pick from !

I love the In the Garden one

Is this instead of Garnet? Or are you still going to do that as well?


I was thinking that you said it was too big for your wall, they alsodo a cut down 'Quick stitch' version:

Decided to save garnet for a different room planning on carrying the red on from the front room through the hall stairs and landing so going to do garnet for the top of the stairs so you can see it as you go up.

I love in the garden as well just wish it had a bit of red in it aswell. Maybe a little bit in her dress. If I can't find anything else I like I will go with in the garden. Just being really fussy lol
