April Wipocalypse

No finishes this month - just a bit of routine work on my rotation pieces :

Mirabilia Maidens of the Season Spring & Ink Circle Bramble and the Rose as seen here and
a couple of HAEDs, QS Siberian Forest & QS Twilight Shimmer




Also did a little on my Chatelaine but not enough to warrant a piccie - it's very slow going  - dh asked me if I had nearly finished, i politely explained that as I started it about three years ago and was only on part 4 out of 12 don't be holding your breath for a finish any time soon lol!  I am aiming to get parts 4 & 5 done this year, so how that pans out...

Hope everyone who has the easter weekend off is enjoying the break - no work for me till tuesday - yay!!

woefully neglected blog

Oops - it's been a while since i updated this blog but it's because i've been trying to stitch with every spare minute i've got which ain't a lot- nearly finished my friend's baby sampler - fingers crossed will get that done in the next couple of weeks and get it framed.





Decided that as it is my birthday on Tuesday i would give myself a new start - so got my HAED Twilight Shimmer QS out and got it kitted up (well as much as i could - goodness, for a smaller design it still uses heaps of colours!) Am on a self imposed stash ban ( hubbie lost his job last year so finances are a bit tight) so will work with what i have at the moment starting on my birthday... might also through caution to the wind and start my Mirabilia Maiden of the Spring - i feel the need for lots of new starts ....


I did manage to stitch up and finish in time for Christmas a little Thomas for my wee boy Joe as he had been asking for it for months - he was very pleased with it and it now sits by his bed, along with a lot of other Thomas the Tank stuff, he's quite a fan!




Normal work as usual has been busy and then the restaurant as well has been busy at the weekends - considering it's January when everyone is supposedly poor, what happended to the recession - still can't complain, helps keep the finances ticking over.
