As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

Just realised that my avatar has suddenly dispersed.

Good morning , at last the wind has died down its been so bad here most of the soil from the farmland is on our drive !  

Im feeling much better now & off the extra meds so may go back to hospital gym today even if i don't do much.

Hope you get your new chair soon stroppy ,   what about the inconvenience they have caused  & not even a sorry !

[*pixachu*]

I thought I posted on here yesterday, lol, but it appears I didn't...

Hope you're all ok. Stroppy I cannot believe they actually thought they wouldn't have to give you a full like for like replacement for your wheelchair. And no real apology either! Very disappointing. Hope the new chair arrives soon.

I have been hob nobbing with Russ Abbott again, lol. I got a hug greeting this time 

He's like the loveliest uncle, and he makes me feel part of the family.

If you're going to get new friends, get the nicest ones, eh? I was at a family party 

Have had a busy few weeks, the outlaws visited, I got my downstairs floors tiled (they look fab!) and my washing machine broke. Thankfully there were two non-uniform days at school that week, so I didn't have to go to the laundrette!

Oh and I have had cuppas and a chat with two separate people, so I am trying to make friends here. Can't be a lonely moo on my pc forever. I need to grab life and get out there and enjoy things more. 

How is it December already?? I think I'd better get writing some Christmas cards and do a bit of Christmas shopping. xx

Twishy -just say a prayer to St Anthony - works every time.  (That's one very busy saint...)

[stroppy*cow]

Twishy - just nip out and buy something else to use for the project - the original stuff will immediately be found.

[petitecalicocat]

Twishy its very annoying isnt it , ive lost my pin cushion cant find it anywhere & worse still its a cathedral window one  Maggie made ages ago :(:(

[bitsnknots]

Have been out for lunch today and I had a lovely meal.  I started off with pate and toast, and then had cod, chips and mushy peas and for pud, I had apple and winter fruit crumble with custard.  I am full now but it was brilliant.  It only cost £11.95 plus a drink.  I think that we'll be having our tea at around 7pm.

I've been threatening to do just that Stroppy...in the hope that it will be frightened into showing itself.....

I've been giving it a right telling off interspersed with prayers to St Tony but nowt's surfaced yet....

[bitsnknots]

Mum lost her purse in the house once.  She couldn't find it anywhere.  More than a few prayers were said.  I went into my mum's bedroom and found the purse under her bed as her purse had fallen out her handbag.  Sometimes, prayers are answered.

[captainbovine]

glad you had a nice time Chris.

I've been in work, a lady came up to a guy on the butchers who I made a santa for his work hat. She asked him who made it and he said me, she asked would I make her one!!!! so that should be more money for the donkey sanctuary. So I've been sewing like mad tonight to make a few more.

[ilove2patch]

Well done you.

[bitsnknots]

That's brilliant CB.  At least cottage industry is still living.  We keep getting orders of Grace's great grandmother for hats and mittens.  I'm not complaining even though she can be a bit of a pain.  As long as we get paid, that's all that matters.

[petitecalicocat]

Wonders if twishy's lost items have turned up yet ...............mine hasnt im still looking for my pin cushion 😞

[twishy123]

Oh well done Capt....do we get to see a piccy when theyr'e done?....

I've been sewing tiny jewels onto something and it looks as though it's covered in glittery pomegranate seeds.....

and I've got two orders for cushions of all things...

[twishy123]

oooh you snook in there PCC....

..

No I haven't found it yet......

[petitecalicocat]

Hummm im begining to think im losing the plot or weve got   a family borrowers under the floorboards !

[twishy123]

I think mine's a black hole.....sucks everything in and then spits them back out as plastic carrier bags and odd socks....

[bitsnknots]

Morning all.

Hope that the Swishy one has found her material.  

The weather seems to be a bit quieter here today.  I hope that it's like that tonight as we are going out for our tea.  Might see Grace tonight but her mum and dad might be going out and Graham's mum will be having Grace.  I'd love to see her again.

Must go now.  Hugs to all that need them.

It's a lovely day here today. Popping into Weymouth later as the Hospice has a street market this weekend.
