sunday stitching










okay i have been sorely neglecting my blog for a while but with good reason, as i have actually been stitching and here is the final result
and here it is framed - it's for one of the doctors at my work who got married recenlty, she was supposed to be getting married in the Cayman Islands but a bit of a hurricane put that idea out and she ended up getting married in Mexico - thought i would do this for her though as she is really sweet and always get's us pressies at xmas...with my stitching time being a bit on the short side just now, i've just concentrated on this. I've a couple of updates on the others i'm working on - baby sampler for my pal (whose baby i have still not met, i must get up to Glasgow soon..) and christmas stocking for ds Joe which is so not going to be done for this christmas lol!
I can't believe september has been and gone, i definitely feel like i slept walked through that month - it's suddenly autumn and the leaves are falling - yesterday it was blowing a gale, chucking it down with rain and freezing cold and today lovely and sunny and blue skies, out picking out leaves for the kid's school projects - a lovely day has been had by all ( and now off to watch Strictly Come Dancing )

  8. I am happy for the "I do!" - couple. I am sure that framed present will make them very happy.
    One of my pals has also said "I do!", but that happened over one or even two years ago already. I still have the unfinished stitched item. I should get it done soon and take it to the local Framing Man. He knows what to do with it.
