85 rows left to go on the rug and I promise i will post a picture of it tomorrow - decided I need to get it finished for the 19 Jul as my mum has said she will back it for me, so that's 4 rows a day.....oh well I work best under pressure i suppose.
Though I now look at everyone's x-stitch and really miss doing it, its so portable too (the rug is not).
Have a good evening everyone - (have a new project too that I'll start on 28 Jul and need to finish by 8/9 Aug as its a wedding anniversary present for OH) - I may need advice closer to the time

7 Embroider new hanging for kitchen (6 in total) - finished
8. Cover for Sunglasses - finished

I have finished four of the quilts and making the fifth one. Drats I thought I could upload the evidence directly from my computer, Back to the drawing board and have to use photobucket:eek: Now where are the details for photobucket, it's been so long since I have used it. I will be back:rotfl:

welcome to the new joiners to the thread, always nice to have more company.

still working on the garden bench cross stitch for step mum, its not going well as those on the cross stitch thread will know so i wont repeat my moans and groans about it here. it will get finished.

ive knitted another baby item so only have one thing left to knit on my 50 for my 50th challenge then that will be another crossed off. wanted that finished by the beginning of july but as long as its done before my 51st birthday i suppose it still counts as completed in my fiftieth year LOL.

Hi everyone

Here is my latest Sandy Hook quilt square - it is for the hospital. Now on to my last one - one for the school.

Hope all are well.



PS Happy July 4th!

Battleaxe - your quilts are lovely and the littles in their cardigans are so cute - well done.

MrsMP - I agree as long as you finish before your 51st birthday then you're fine and as it's only a self kmposed deadline a few extra days won't matter.

Sweetcarer - as usual nice Sany Hook square. I must add my details to mine and send it off.

Added you, and put you down as 4/13, is that right?

Soulie, I have finished four of the quilts, the cardigans, the wall hangings for the kitchen and the sunglasses cover..by my count that is seven. I am working on the quilt for J today, so far this has been an exercise infrustration...

ok I promised this ages ago, but this is how far I am now almost done and have about ten days to get it completed so I can take it to my mum's for finishing off.
Then I can crack on with everything else in the list
