  • Just popping in with a quick reminder if anyone needs one that our Christmas card exchanges should be posted on Saturday or Monday :xmassign:

    Don't forget to take a photo first as I'm sure everyone will want to see them all

    Some lovely and inspiring work here as usual

    :(:(


    I've stuck down the envelope on my Christmas Card Exchange without taking a photo :(


    Hopefully the recipient can take one when they receive it. What a wally!

    Have been busy trying to get these done,the snowmen are going to be turned in to hanging ornaments for Christmas tree filled with chocolate pennies and then off to OZ.
    The square is going to be a pin cushion and then sent to NZ.

    Hi everyone,


    Loving all the photos and updates.


    Annie021063 - the NYC piece looks amazing all framed up.


    pm2326 - love the jazzy snowman piece, he's coming along really nicely.


    JCS1 - how cute is that sleeping kitty? Love it.


    nmm - RF looks amazing, not long to go now.


    Mrs_T_M - lovely birth samplers, very neat.


    I've done some more on Girl with Cosmos. Having trouble getting the photo to upload onto photobucket to paste here. Will persevere....


    fos - wasn't the Blackpool Strictly amazing? I loved Saturday's show too. Can't decide on my favourite, too many good dancers. Have to say that Frankie and Jake stand out for me as they are so modest. Pixie went to Italia Conti (up the road from here) so has had some training in the past I'm sure.


    Sorry for going off topic !!! Off to do some stitching.


    Have a good day all.
    Coxy

    Girl with cosmos is looking great.

    This year's Strictly is a-Maz-ing Nd I think it's going to be a close final

    Will try and get mine posted today - finishing off another one for another exchange, so was hoping to send them together so will probably be Monday before I get to posting - sorry.

  • Just popping in to say that exchange stitch is all packed up and ready to go first thing in the morning. Didn't make yesterday's collection (rubbish here on a Saturday) but I promise I will be at the PO at 8.30 in the morning.

    Enjoy your Sunday everyone.
