Hello Lovelies,

Thank you for your kind replies.

I've made good progress this week with Primrose

Phew that was a long drive, hope you feel better soon

You've made good progress on your lovely fall fairy.

Absolutely beautiful.

I'm certain the recipient will love it when gifted.

Hope you have the Happiest of Birthdays! And many more to come.

Wishing you a Very Happy Birthday and peace and safety to be your gift.

Thank you Serinde for contacting Lyudmila and for giving us hope with her reply. The World changed on 24th Feb last year for all of us but that is nothing with how it changed for the good people of Ukraine what they have had to and continue to endure. Jo I agree completely. Thank you for letting he...

Yes of course, there will be two bunnies and two baskets with four Chocolate Oranges being gifted at Easter. Maybe along with a small bag of the solid Chocolate Mini Eggs.

Oh the changed font does look so much better, good call.

How appropriate for a stocking with an image of cats to have cat speciality threads

It's beautiful.

Gosh, so much detail

Absolutely!

I really like this, I mean really really like this, and the extra stitches at the bottom do balance the design

Well done Mabel.

Now that's a lovely vision!

Chewy is really coming along.

Hello Lovelies, I have been knitting again, I was sent a link for a knitted crown to fit a Terry's Chocolate Orange in advance of the upcoming Coronation, and whilst I wasn't interested in the Crown I did have a look on etsy to see what else there was that would fit as in our household we always hav...

Hello Lovelies, Just a small update this time, it's been one of those weeks when I've been busy every day but don't have a lot to show for it, just the daily chores and a little extra. https://i.postimg.cc/W3MqcwYb/IMG-3055-2-Large.jpg She has the void space on her arm stitched now with her filmy sh...

Oh my gosh, this looks so complicated. The different techniques are so effective and the stitching is so so beautiful. After reading (and thoroughly enjoying Tanya Bentham's book) I am more aware of how the light is so important in the stitches and how it affects the whole look of the piece, and you...

Cats are certainly coming along, great progress!

This is going to be a fabulous stocking.

Hengest!

It's so good to see Hengest again, he is simply adorable, and that mane is so beautiful
.

I agree, he is very handsome.

Oh that is great news Carole, it must be such a relief to not need chemotherapy . What a relief too that the radiation treatment can be carried out so locally. :x: the preventatives do their job with no side effects either. Please be good to yourself and give yourself a lovely treat - you so deserve...

Hello Lovelies, thank you both for you replies, you are ever so kind.

I had thought I had posted this update but obviously I hadn't.



I have stitched a bit more than the little bit of the filmy scarf/shawl over her arm.

Ouch Roland, I hope you get the answers to your pain and something can be done relatively easily. Richard, it's ridiculous the lengths you had to go to to get a Doctors appointment, :x: it isn't pneumonia and is simply (!) a run of the mill chest infection. I hope you feel better soon. Oh and yes, p...

Well I thought I had posted a reply but it seems to have disappeared into the ether.

What a great start and what a great idea to crop the image to your favourite part.

I hope the blends and confetti don't cause you too much trouble.
