    Just a quickie as I know you would all like to know, just got back from seeing the Doctor, (my appointment was for 8.10am - or in other words, stupid o'clock lol), no MRI results but she asked me a load of questions and she seems to think that the chemo is working, but I suppose I've got to wait for the MRI results to be sure but I suppose if it wasn't working or if it had spread then they would have had my results back quicker.

    Hi everyone sorry I have been awol for a while. I've done absolutely nothing to any of my projects so I'm completely behind but I have set up a work from home business making hairbows, tutus some jewellery items etc which has been going really well, so I've been crazy busy.

    Still want to complete this challenge though if I can so today I will finish the upcycle shirt to dress for my daughter whilst the boys watch the formula one.

    Love pics tinkerbell is great and my boys would love those military vehicles in the frame. I'm not going to attempt any cross stitching since I still have the pooh bear half completed picture I bought to do whilst I was pregnant with my DD over 8 years ago.

    Hope everyone is ok and I should be back this evening with a pic of DD in the dress x
