JCS, that stash picture is great, you can certainly justify the cost now. Could you tell me what the seed beads are like if you have opened them. I have to use them in my current design and just wondered if they are better quality than normal seed beads.

Winniethepooh, love that tapestry! The roses really pop on the bright background.

Don't know if any of you follow Bothy Threads on facebook but look at this kit, I must say I did lol when I saw it. I would love to do one or two of the designs just for card fronts.

Have a great weekend all

Love the new Bothy Threads kit. So that's 2 more projects added to my want to do list this and Dressmaker's daughter

Well done and best wishes for the interview. Do you know anything about the format of the interview? One person or panel? Just questions or will there be tests etc?

Thank you one and all for you support.

I know it is going to a panel interview and a typing test of some sort - probably audio. It a competency based interview - so have give real examples of situations.

Spent this afternoon with the area manager going over some things. He wondered why am I wanting to go. Couldn't tell him the truth - said looking for new challenges. Really quite nervous about the whole thing. Have printed off my application so can read over it and think of examples.

Thank you again for your support,

Won't 'let' you? :eek:Remind him that you live there too and you want it up. Even if you have it up for 6 months, then he gets to chose something to have in place for 6 months. Blooming men...

Seed beads look the same as other ones I've used in the past, though haven't yet got around to opening them - daren't with an inquisitive cat in the house :rotfl:
