Cross Stitch and Craft Café 2024 - pull up a chair and join us!
For complete disclosure, I have made an error and @Wraithlady’s card has gone to their neighbour who hasn’t been in for WL to collect it. Huge apologies for this - must try harder next year (or pass the baton on…)
We saw ILs today to exchange gifts over a coffee and mince pie. Such a subdued atmosphere. SIL not coming home anytime soon, is not up to visitors and as BIL is working this week she will have a miserable Christmas. Just shocking.
Hope everyone is doing okay in respect of plans for next week and inclement weather.

Just popped in to wish you all a happy new year 🥳 I hope you all had a good Christmas. It’s a magical but challenging time for lots of people. I hope you could collect your card @Wraithlady, I could kick myself for not photographing it before I posted it but here’s a photo of the design I used. @Coxy11 I think you can forgive yourself, it’s been a lot to take on in a year when you’ve also moved house and all sorts of jobs.
