    Lovely nappy cake, vikki_louise - I haven't seen one of these in ages. Great idea.

    I've finally done one of my projects. My first nappy cake in 2 1/2 years. I. Have so much baby stuff as I was making lots of nappy cakes but became too ill. I hope people still buy nappy cakes. This is a bad photo, I'm pleased with how it came out seeing as my mum purchased various patterned things which clashed so had to find a way to tie the colours in together

    Finished sewing this up last night, it was really quick to knit and I'm pleased with how it's turned out.

    As you can see I'm working through the blue stash.


    Hope everyone is well hugs to all that need them

    I was lucky enough to visit the exhibition which included some of sweetcarer's stitching. It was fantastic - the photographs don't do justice to sweetcarer's work. The stitches, especially on the twisted band sampler, are soooooo fine! Well done!

    I'm really sorry I missed you, sweetcarer, because I would have liked to pass on my compliments in person.

    I am so annoyed I missed you.

    Here are some pictures I got of my work in the exhibition - one of the other girls had put them up on facebook. Everyone elses work looked so amazing. Some of my work got withdrawn, as my framing wasn't done professionally and they were worried it might get damaged.

    I actually managed to knit this bird on DPNs without throwing them across the room or giving up, so definate progress is being made. He needs a friend to share the nest I made with and I've also crocheted 14 flowers but they still need finishiing off and a few leaves adding. I'm decorating some fake trees in a passageway at school so this is an ongoing project I'll try and get a photo when everything's in place

    sorry I've not been around in a while. Busy doesn't cover work at the mo. Sweetcarer I hope you enjoyed your exhibition - it looked amaazing and well done for all the finished projects I do enjoy looking at them. I've stiched a couple of nights on my cross stitch but the 18th birthday quilt is still a WIP. It's a bit further on than in this photo but I'm challenging myself to finish before the end of half- term (week after next) daughter luckily not holding her breath!

    It's all made with her old clothes, mostly jeans. Still don't quite know what I'm going to back and bind it with!
