Okay…. feeling much better on the stitching front now 
This week has been a busy one! I have laced and framed Ivy for my niece and sent her off, I laced and framed a small piece for a friend (she stitched it) and she is happy with it so I am LOL I laced and framed Celtic Summer for Stephanie and took it around to her, her expression was worth giving it up I then finished up Crescent Dreams, except for the name, for baby I will show you a picture tomorrow Its a dull day here so no point taking a picture Today I have worked on Cirque des cercles (hubby’s birthday pressie) I will show you a picture of that tomorrow too……. promises, promises LOL
On Monday Kristin and I are starting our sal on Celtic Autumn and this time Mel will be joining us I can’t wait and this one will be for me!! YAY! I also found a great framer, who is very pedantic and proper (a good thing) who is also not very expensive so I have decided that all my big pieces with be properly framed from now on and I will only frame my little things.
On the baby front I have made a very large decision, with the agreement of my darling, if all goes according to plan we will be having a homebirth, this is not a direction I would normally take but the system in Timaru is just so antiquated I feel that I have no choices!! Which really suxs! I have had trouble free labours with all my natural births and no pain relief needed, so apart from Ella’s birth which was only a c-section because of breech presentation I have been blessed with natural easy births, so going to a hospital as soon as my contractions are 10 mins apart (say what?!!) and having to be on my back with a monitor on the whole time is not my idea of a great birthing experience! I have talked to a local independent midwife who was very positive and I am meeting her tomorrow, she was lovely and I finally feel at peace about the birth.
Anyway….
*hugs*

I would love to be able to lace my own work. The framers here just don’t seem to get the idea that we don’t want our precious needlework glued or stuck with tape. I’ve not found a decent one yet. I’ll be trying another one with my latest finish.
Great decision about the birth. That’s what I wanted before we discovered I had GD and then it was out of the question. I hope all goes well for you. How long have you got now?

I’d love to see your laced pieces hehehe…I have so much demands dont i? LOL
It’s nice to know you have had trouble free labors, my sister never needed any pain reliever as well with her 2 kids…Meh..I had to have ITN (lasts only 2 hours)because at 7 cm I kept trying to push Connor out and they told me that it was stressing him, that by the time he was ready to come out his heartbeat went down to less than 60, so they had to work fast. Plus hubby’s family kept coming into the room, I couldn’t concentrate LOL, that at the time i had reached 10 and the ITN had wore off I had asked SIL to leave the room cuz i was ready..What came into my mind was our dog in the Philippines giving birth to over 10 litters hahaha crazy!
Have a lovely day!
