Cross Stitch Cafe 2017 - do more of what makes you happy

mrs-moneypenny

Sorry I've missed the card exchange this year I hadn't been in the thread so missed the announcement. I'm still stitching and have finished Celtic Noel and a bothy threads piece called thumbelina I'm going to stitch a picture of George Michael next for a friend.

Welcome back FOS it's so lovely to have you back in the thread.

I promise I'll post in here more next year and pay more attention to when the exchange is happening. I've just got all the pieces out I've received over the years and put them out on display with this years decorations

Happy Christmas everyone. Xxx

If there is anyone who wants a late exchange partner I'll be happy to stitch a piece. X

Thanks for the welcome back. It’s not too late. We could do a 3 way exchange. You send to me, I’ll send to nmm and she sends to you.

Would that work for us?

Like you I love getting out my stitched cards and ornaments each year

Celtic Noel is a beautiful design. Mine is on display in my hall where I rotate her and her sisters with the seasons

Hope all are safe and warm. We only have a dusting of snow but my cousin who lives in deepest Shropshire had to postpone her planned visit as they’ve had 8 inches and it’s still falling Great stitching weather

mrs-moneypenny

I'll be happy to do that, I'll get something started and pm you when it's ready to post. Thank you x

YAY, so pleased the exchange is going ahead, that sounds like a plan FOS, I have Mrs MP's address from a previous exchange, if you haven't moved?

No snow here in Cumbria, my Snowdog is most upset, keep safe and warm everyone.

mrs-moneypenny

I'm still at the same address. Thanks. X

I’ve also found your address from previous exchanges. Let me know if it has changed I’ve sent a pm to Mrs mp with my new address.
It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.......:xmastree::santa2::rudolf:

mrs-moneypenny

Thank you I got the pm. X

nmm

FOS, PM sent but i think it's the same address, i will get the card posted either tomorrow or Wednesday.

My first update on the Bauble Wreath, I used my phone for the photo, think i'll use my OH's Sony Camera next time.



Does anyone believe it will be completed this christmas? :rotfl:

That’s great Mrs mp. Thanks for letting me know. I will be posting my card to nmm today

The bauble wreath already looks lovely nmm but there’s clearly a lot of work in it Even when I was stitching a lot I preferred to start a Christmas piece with the intention of finishing it for the following Christmas. There’s enough pressure at this time of year without creating more.
The main item I have stitched in 2016 & 2017 was another Shepherd’s Bush stocking but I’ve forgotten how to add an image from Flickr!
