They are so beautiful as is mum.

I was so close to getting the wolf design for you as well

Wow, gorgeous stash everyone. No pictures from me (darn camera) but I received a lovely piece of evenweave (the giftwrap) with sparkling green ribbon, the cutest snowman card, 2 bat glass treasures, a Mill Hill buttons and beads kit (Night owl) and a pack of needles :D I can't wait to start on the o...

That is so beautiful

Get well soon

Glad it arrived safely

Mine went postal today

Mine is ready to go postal

Just adding I've had a PM from Nachstenliebe to let me know she will wait a little to mail so it isn't caught up in any aftermath. She still plans to send this coming week though

So many options, not at all sure what colours I'll use but I am looking forward to it

That looks like it will be great fun to work on

My hubby has no shame, he'll buy 'girly essentials' for me if needed. He doesn't exactly brandish them, but he's not exactly a shrinking violet either
Cross stitch magazines, well he'd probably forget which one, get them all and a papercraft one 'just in case' (I know I'm lucky)

They are so cute

Perfect, how did I miss it

Have a great time and I can't wait to see your workshop snaps. You may find a new addiction with bobbin lace

I have my partners gift now Just the final touches and it's ready (OMG I'm organised ) btw need a fainting smiley for moments like this

Congratulations to you both

Can you talk to someone at CAB? Realistically very few people could afford to pay that back in one go. Tell them the absolute maximum you can pay each week/month. They can't take money you don't have. They take forever if they under pay but want it yesterday if the overpay grrr :hug: I did get nice ...

That sounds interesting. I hope you are allowed to stitch that and we do get a sneak peek

I've been stitching on and off for years and the funniest I ever had said was 'I used to do that but grew out of it' or the classic 'You are so boring' The biggest laugh is when you ask their hobbies they nearly all say clubbing, drinking or watching tv
