This is a little break?!?!? Well, compared to the HAED I suppose anything is :-). I've seen this design advertised, it's lovely -- I'm looking forward to seeing it take shape here.

Fantastic start, lovely picture, will look forward to updates.

I think it was a grave mistake joining this forum because it looks like all of you are going to be encouraging me to buy yet more kits and charts and there is no way that I will live enough lifetimes to do the ones I have already.

Oh yes, yes they would! They are very bad for that ... look at what they did to me *tries to look pathetic and hard done by* I started off all unsuspecting like with a few kits ... now I have a cupboard full of stash!!!!

Like all stitchers I need NO encouragement.

My OH was pleased that I had found the forum because here I have no-one to 'talk to' about my fabourite hobby but now he has heard 'aw that is lovely' so many times that he is now looking quite anxious.
