    So we're back on to the Cross stitch, so I will no longer be off topic. :o

    Hi ladies,


    I'm back from skiing and all the contingent (21 of us) came back in one piece. Last year one of the teens broke her leg on the last day, but glad to see her bombing along this year without hesitation. No crafting done as the après ski doesn't lend itself to it - couldn't concentrate on anything more than the odd card game and glass of vin chaud :)


    I have already purchased Mother's Day cards so I won't take part in the challenge thank you, but fos I love the design you've chosen.


    I'm at knit and knatter tomorrow morning (briefly) before going into work, then running youth club in the evening. Probably won't get to stitch at all until Thursday/Friday night - DH on scout camp this coming weekend, so will be able to stitch to my hearts content - bliss.


    Love the socks Kez - I take it you knitted 'in the round'? Not something I could contemplate. We are currently knitting the Last Supper for the church Easter display. Then we are onto the Twelve days of Christmas and because I did hardly any of the Last Supper I have been allocated 12 drummers drumming - oh dear me!!!


    nmm - leopard is looking fab-u-lous.


    Have a good evening all.
