I do the same with crochet, I have 3 different projects on the go i get half way through then frog it, but with cross stitch I only do one at once. I've put my crochet away to concentrate on the leopard, i'm getting much more done now. I always wanted to try making my own clothes but I've no room for another hobby yet!!Cross Stitch Cafe Member No1WIP: Cross Stitch: Seascape Kit - Crochet:0

Nmm I got a few stitches done on my lyric cushion panel but got engrossed in line of fire on catch up so we've watched the first two series of it.
Hope to get a bit more stitching done as I've got two weeks off for Easter.SPC~12 ot 124

Hello everyone,
It's been a while since I last posted - sorry, life is very busy. DH was made redundant last Wednesday. We had an idea it would happen but it still feels awful when it does! He has been doing a few jobs around the house and garden whilst looking for something else, which is good. He replaced a fence post yesterday and DS1's room needs decorating, so that will keep him occupied. He has an interview on Monday afternoon, and a couple of other places have his cv so we shall keep our fingers crossed.
On the crafting front, I have been mainly knitting the 12 drummers drumming for my knit and knatter Christmas display. I have decided to knit all the parts first then spend time putting them together so that they all look identical in terms of stuffing, sewn on faces etc. I would estimate that I'm about half way along at least, trying to make a couple of pieces each night (last night a hat and a front body piece) whilst watching corrie on catch up!
This means that I haven't picked up Collecting Shells for a while. I plan to have this as my weekend project for the foreseeable future. I have to help at a church event tomorrow evening up until about 8.30pm but plan to do a bit before and a bit after, then Sunday is free to stitch all evening.
nmm - well done on your leopard progress, it's looking amazing.
Mrs Ceejay - how is Sydney coming along? Not as many colour changes as the New York pattern, but still fairly colour heavy!
Right, better go and dry my hair before going into work. Don't want to scare the congregation lol!
Have a good day all,
