This weekend we have had enough sunshine to dry my washing even though it has been bitterly cold and they are threatening us with snow ... I know lots of you get snow but we don't get that much these days and go into panic mode at the first hint of it ..lol ...I carry a bag in the back of the car for emergency stop overs at work ...touch wood never had to use it as yet ...I have had a good week with the stitching and crocheting , even almost getting another finish .. just got a tiny bit of border and then my initials and then My Pink Rose by Blackbird Designs will be another finish for the year wooooo :)
I have started on a new blanket for my bedroom just because I could as a wee celebration of finishing and passing all my assignments for my NVQ .... I just have three more Q & A's to write up and do a discussion on one and that is it done and dusted wayyyy before time phew .... My new blanket is in duck egg Arron wool with flecks of gold and red in it .... I have done more than in the photo and sorry it is blurry, it was taken the other night at Chris's when we were having our crafty night ...
We are starting operation Kitchen next weekend so it could make life interesting to say the least as we are unsure of how much work we will have to do to change everything ...first thing we will be taking out is the breakfast bar and cupboard underneath it and we hope that there is still a fireplace behind it ...I will of course take some progress photos :)
Soooooo onto my blogaversary winner (s) yes there is a wee S in there ..lol ... I wrote all your names down and folded them up and popped them in my wool bowl and DH picked the main winner as Lynda .....and then I picked a second one to receive a wee stitching as .... Daffycat so ladies can you please send me your snail mail address's to my email that's on the side bar...along with a few likes and dislikes of things you like stitched etc colours designers and then my wee paws will do the rest :) Congratulations to you both :)
