Very nice its looking good. All that purple must be driving you mad though I am kid free (except the baby) and plan on watching a film and finishing one baby sampler and starting the second one. xx

Doing all the purple is quite nice - really enjoying but looking forward to getting back to my hearts for Sandy Hook.

Up early - going to do some stitching then get ready to go out and meet up with the girls for some lunch.

Something to look forward to later - still alot of snow outside and a bitterly cold wind.

Keep well everyone.

Maria and the Imps - the owls are amazing and well done on the blanket.

I have been thinking a lot about making a blanket out of Noah's baby outfits as a keepsake. I dont have a sewing machine and I am rubbish at using one and have always done my work by hand. Just dont know if it would be too much work. xx

Maria - those are fab, I'd be really proud if I'd done them too!

Sweetcarer - that looks very intricate, you must be very patient.

Emmi - looks like you're on a roll now, well done on the completed projects. I've got about 5 or 6 all either started or waiting to be started and not a single thing finished.
