I don't believe it!

I thought that it would be quiet over the Christmas period in blogger land - I couldnt have been more wrong...I only have 242 posts to read!

I am off out now but will be reading them later :)



I hope everyone had a good christmas and are looking forward to the new year, and to all those crazy people who are taking part in the January challenge or WIPocalypse...Good Luck!

 I have three things I want to start/finish next year...

  1. The Geisha (deadline: March)
  2. Joan Elliot Calendar (as provided in the free diary that came with World of Cross Stitching, I will be hoping to stitch one each month during IHSW)
  3. Mirabilia; Lady of the Mist (no deadline)

Bye for now and look out for comments later :)

    Oh, I hear ya, Kate. I'm here catching up on blog reading instead of stitching on Chinese Garden cos I'm afraid that if I leave the blogs for another day, they'll need a county of volunteers to dig me out. ROFL!!

    Happy New Year!

Whats 11 months between friends?

Hey there

I have spent a fair bit of the year on instagram, just because I try to avoid wittering on, but I miss this blog and although I need to tidy it up...it is one if the things I want to focus on more in 2020.

So lets get up to date...

Some stitchy finishes this year....

This was completely new - a pattern by Durene Jones - the idea is that it is a FFO stocking. It was a quick stitch and I loved all of it except stitching the white.

This was a new start and a finish this year, its Bothy Threads row of dinosaurs - i had some issues with this and made some design changes. It also needs to be fully finished along with the rest.

This was in a magazine and I want to say it was designed by Emma Congdon...? when FFO it should be an envelope to put your childs letters to santa in.

This was stitched for Halloween. It was taken from a magazine and when FFO'd is a 3D monster mansion. The original colours were greens and I made other changes. Hopefully, I will get some time to write the…

**I changed the name of the post! lol Nothing lasts forever...but trust me...it was really long!**
So this is it! My final list post...yes, yes, I took my time but its here!
Its actually a combination post, because whilst stitching this weekend my brain was whirring away and thinking about the task in hand and I made some notes in my mind as to what I would write in my next blog post. Well, after I had been mentally wittering away it did occur to me that I was liable to be accused of teaching my grandmother to suck eggs unless I made a point of stating that it really is aimed at beginners. However, those cross stitch lifers who so very kindly comment on my posts may have some extra tips too and feel free to add them.
So less of the waffling....but before I start the list...a little more waffling....
My last blog post was about the Christmas Ornie SAL that I have joined and will be parti…
