Kind wishes to all

Thanks for the welcome Shelly

Winnepooh that's lovely

I have made a bit of progress with my birds but have now run out of another colour and will need to go to a shop to get new thread as I don't know what official colour it is. I will be standing there with my cross stitch holding it up against the thread stand hehe

Hello girls

Sweetcarer - love the samplers. Can't wait to see your progress with those. Colours are lovely. I daren't add them to my list as much as I love them. Baby pics are lovely too - they look so different to a lot of the other pics that are available. Hope they appreciate all your hard work. Just seen hearts - they are gorgeous. Well done you :T.

ems - it's so frustrating when you realise you have made a mistake and need to unpick. Looking forward to seeing a piccy.

vl2588 - its so easy to pick up the wrong colour. Hope you manage to sort the colours ok.

winnie - your stained glass window is looking beautiful. Great colours.

Have tried to spend some time on 12 Days so have had to limit time on laptop. Here's an update of how it's looking so far.



That's half way with the cross stitching so things are so bad.

Hope it's not too wet wherever you are. Its been chucking it down here today and I have to go and collect DS from work late tonight as he is having some work done on his car. The way its going I might have more luck with a canoe.

Take care everyone. Think I might make a start on my French hen.

My current piece is staring to come together now but i think it's going to take longer than i originally thought. I have three more pieces to do after this one for presents and then i can finally make a start on the ones i want to do for myself!


sweetcarer the Sandy Hook hearts are gorgeous

blue_eyed_girl i can't wait to see what the other six squares look like

winniepooh don't worry if you've lost your mojo - that is going to be absolutely gorgeous whenever you finish it

emslovemickey oh no how annoying. Hope you manage to get it restitched soon.

vl2588 welcome. Looking forward to seeing your work.

sweetcarer your samplers are lovely. The teddies are so cute. I love seeing all your sandy hook hearts together, they look so colourful.

flateric hope you get some decent sleep tonight.

shelly welcome back. Hope you enjoyed your holidays.

beg the twelve days looks brilliant. Can't wait to see it all finished.

Well finished off the snowman xmas card I started last week. Need to finish off the backstitch on Eeyore and that will be finished too, so that's my project for tomorrow night.
