  • MMP- I might be interested in the fantasy book if no one else is, could you find an online link poss so I can see if I would use it rather than just stashing it away, lol. Thanks

  • Will do subtle but I'm on my way out. so i'll do it either tonight or in the morning

    Receive my £50 m&s voucher ( for joining sky) and seen as how I never got to spend the bit I put aside from the ppi (bloody men) I'm going to drop littlest imp at nursery and go and spend it, now if only they sold cross stitch!

    ailsb -

    let me know if these are any good if not we will continue our search

    These fairies are fantastic just the right sort of thing, fairies but not too childish. I will PM you if that's ok. Love the MIA as well.

    Thank you so much for your hard work in finding these for me, I really do appreciate it.

    FOS - thank you.

    Non stitchy - well I went in to work and picked up laptop, then went to Drs - have infection in my Uvula (the dangly bit at the back of the throat) so now on antibiotics. Officially working from home, I'm pleased as keeping warm, in comfort in fleecy pj's and boss is pleased as still responding to emails etc. Win win situation.

    MrsMP - that books lovely = now if only I could use magic to give me extra time I would gladly have the book from you, but alas I am all out of magical powers at the moment.

    Louise - I hope you don't mind but I would like to pinch your idea of the colour scheme for the fairy/ies.

    MrsBaggins - your fairy and name kit is really nice I'm sure your grandaughter will love it.

    Laura - your finsih cushion front is fab, how lucky to have a M-I-L that can turn it into a cushion.

  • Ailsb - hope the medication kicks in soon and you're feeling a happy little bunny again.

    maria - love the fairy pics (particularly the purply coloured ones). Hope you managed to find a treat for yourself on your shopping trip.

    mrs baggins - that is a beautiful kit. I look forward to seeing your update pics. Good luck with it. It looks as though it is a nice little step up from card size projects without being too adventurous. :D

    laura - love the reindeers. Don't forget to post pic of the finished cushion :D

    mrs m - you have been busy. Pooh and Piglet particularly appeal. I think I did those xmas decs last year too.

    Supposed to be going to Shape and Tone class tonight but in all honesty I could quite easily give it a miss but it has been booked and I told a friend I was going and its still pouring down and I would much rather stay in and stitch. :(

    Hope you haven't got too wet today.

    Take care
