Day 7: Are you more like your mum or dad? In what way?

Morning,

I look more like my dad and his side of the family although I think as I have gotten older I have started to look more like my mum.

Personality wise, I think I get my antisocial behaviours traits from my dad and all my good ones from my mum and I guess a few bad ones too.

Its funny to watch my nieces and see how different they all are, yet how they all resemble their mum in looks and behavoiur (gained genetically and through environment). We recently unearthed a school report of my sisters from when she was 10 and reading it was the same as reading her 10 year old daughters!

Who are you most like? Do you actively try not to be like one of your parents?

    Funny you should ask... My mom recently went into hospital for open surgery. While we were waiting, she popped to the loo. A nurse entered the room, gave me a gown and told me to get changed! 'No, I'm not the patient!' In walked my mom. The nurse looked at both of us and smiled. So, in answer to your question, I look like my mom. And just to add - she looks young, not the other way round LOL!! The surgery went well and she's well on the road to recovery. Bless her.

    I'm a lot like my Dad personality wise and have many of his traits. Physically I think I'm a mix somewhat, not so much my Dad, but how his sisters and mother are.

      I think its odd how we pick up traits of our parents, I wonder why we veer more towards one that the other? It can't all be genetic.

    My dad in looks and I think a good mix of their personalities although they were a lot more outgoing than I am.

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…

10 things about stitching with plastic canvas (30)

Okay so that is a ridiculously long title, not catchy at all, but I wanted to be clear...hehehe...
**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…
