Hello everyone

Meant to get on yesterday - to do my final update for 2013 but things took over.

I managed to finish both my work sampler (but have left it at work - doh! - not back till Monday) and my autumn sampler.

So I think that makes it that I have completed 12 out 13 and have completed 4 parts of the number 13 - the learning sampler.

So here is the autumn sampler completed - will try and do a group picture later - using my old camera and the pictures are not as good as the new camera.

Autumn sampler -


So my list is now -

1. Calendars - at least 2 (one for me & one for my former MinL) - complete 12/01/2013
2. AOY charity squares - letter O x 2 - complete 27/01/2013
3. Birth samplers x 2 complete 04/08/2013
