Andie

Of course I got bored

with LotM (temporarily at least) so I pulled out an old WIP.  This WIP has a bit of a story to it, it was the first Mirabilia I fell in love with and bought.  This is the pattern that got me truely hooked on cross stitch (with a vengance!)  I started it on a hand dyed blue shaded fabby but it just looked wrong, so I unpicked it all and started it all over again on this piece of Lavender Dreams from Countrystitch.  So I really love this piece, but it has been a bit trying, it has grown surprisinly fast though

Without further ado… I give you Waiting for Ships

I got my round for the UFO WWRR, it is L&L’s Fairy Dreams, I have decided I really like this pattern, so much nicer in real life (as usual) I have this pattern somewhere so it just moved up my to do list   I will post before and after photos when my round on it has finished

Next up is this weeks progress on Celtic Summer, I finished the right hand side border and just have that little bit of skirt and then the beading to go!! I am so excited, it is hard to put it down til next week!  It will be a bit late for Stephies birthday but she is not upset, so that is good

Thanks for stopping by

*hugs*

Andie

Lots of stitching update

Okey dokey..

Here is this weeks progress on Celtic Summer, my order with my gold thread finally arrived so I just filled in a lot of gold gaps this week

Here is my latest (for myself) naughty start    I joined a UFO round robin, and sent off Three for Tea so decided that gave me an excuse to start a new one LOL

Lady of the Mist – Mirabilia, started in July – stitching on 32count Lugana – Eden from Countrystitch

 Here is my other start…. But this one is allowed LOL

Midnight Boo – artwork by Chrissy Clark charted by Stab and Stash she is being stitched 1 over 1 on a hand dyed from Stab and Stash.  My photo is terrible, it is an extremely dull day today so it has come out very dark, and I managed to get a shodow over it!  I tried with a flash, but then it was all over exposed so you will have to put up with this for today

*hugs*

I got another gift

in the mail today

Maggie sent me a lovely gift

 

Sorry, as usual my pictures are terrible!  The pincushion is for “being a great friend”  and the scissor fob is because…… awhile ago I was in an exchange and my partner never did mine, so Maggie, lovely lady that she is said she was going to make me one and its absolutly beautiful!!   Thank you Maggie!!! YOU are a great friend!!  *hugs*

My sweeties are all home now   The boys had a lovely time with their Dad and Tarissa had an absolute ball at the world vision week!

I will have some stitching updates for you soon

*hugs*

I got a belated birthday

present yesterday   Tammy from Stab and Stash sent me the most humongous and amazing birthday present!  To start with she sent me some of her handmade soaps in currant &thyme, honey gingerbread and in seabreeze salt.  They smell delicious, I can’t wait to use them!  I was going to last night but wanted to take a picture first   Also included was some of Tammy’s yummy scrubs in Blackberry delight and Hazelnut cafe (I will smell delicious!)

Tammy also sent me  some gorgeous pieces of fabric, all one of a kinds, dyed just for me, I absolutly love the burst fabric, hanging on the back of the chair, the outer edge is a kind of purple that is brownish, hard to explain but I LOVE it!!

Sorry the picture is not very good……

*hugs*

Andie

P.S The Stab and Stash has a BB its Here come along and you might get spoilt to!

Do you ever

find…….. for quite sometime now there is a person that really annoys me on a mb I visit, logically this problem is mine not the other persons, but it just irritates me that she is so rudely (in my opinion) opintionated, the things that are said could be said in a lot nicer fashion or just not said, the issues aren’t important.

Its really irritating me a lot, I am just wondering what I should do, continue to grit my teeth and be quiet?  Not visit the board for quite awhile (and a few others)?  Laugh?  Say something when I think she is being rude?

I dunno?!!!

*hugs*
