loving the makes as usual ladies.

i havent been posting on here lately but i have been reading.
i have finished another two signs, one that my friend had asked me to do (unfortunatley i forgot to take a pic) and another for us. im trying to upload a pic but flickr seems to be playing up.

i can see this signmaking taking over my life, my sister has now requested one!

hopefully will work this time!

this is going in my dining room and will be the centre of a new photo wall. im going to frame loads of pics and cover the wall with them, will hopefully look good!
i just cant decide whether to have all my frames black or a mixture of black and red or all differnent ones (wood, black, white, red and any others i find?!) what do u think?
i also cant decide whether to leave the sign as it is or to sand it off in places?

Morning all,

Thanks Maria:D
Love the signs carlamarie gorgeous.
Mrs Moneypenny Tinkerbell is looking great.

I've struggled the last couple of days. A bit bored with my squares, having been waiting for inspiration to strike. Anyway have decided I really need a new peg bag, so off to see what I can find.

mrs-moneypenny

Tinkerbell is now finished and ready to frame so thats another off my list.:T ill post another picture of her later now she has both wings.

have sorted out my next project which is a cushion that will be for either mil or my mum for christmas (i've got 2 cushions to do so will decide who gets which when they're both finshed)

at some point this morning will sort out the huge bundle of wools ready to make a start.

ive now completed 7 of my 13 but there are a couple of really complex ones left that will take up a lot of time
