Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

Morning. Looks like it's going to be a lovely day. I am off to a christmas wreath making workshop today with some friends. Should be fun.

Love your quote Stan. I am a big fan of the Alice books.

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

It was fun to do. I have sore fingers now though from the wire.

Afternoon all.

 

Love the wreath Maggie.  It looks like that it was well worth the sore fingers.

 

Glad that your feeling better today CB.

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

I know what you mean Maggie about the wire, I've had sore fingers a number of times trying to tie stuff with wire. I love my glue gun but I know some stuff you just can't glue.

 

it looks wonderful.

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

Morning all.  Must admit that it sounds a bit windy here at the moment but it's nowhere near as bad as it was last Thursday.

 

I'm being taken out for lunch today - I think and then we'll finish off this weeks food shop.

 

Hope that everyone is as well as can be expected.  BTW, CB, have heard as to when you'll be having your hoof done yet?

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

Merc, the material was probably under all the choccy wrappers.  Woman LOL

 

Spoke to Steph earlier and she has had a bad dose of septic (sp) tonsilitis and was given a sick note for a week.  She's feeling a lot better so she is going into work tomorrow.  When Steph, her mum and Grace had come out of the doctor's yesterday, they went into a shop as Grace wanted a sausage roll and a gingerbread man.  The shop was busy and the lady who was working on the counter asked one of the staff for some help.  Grace's words were 'I'll help.  I really will'.  Typical of a soon to be 3 year old.

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

Wow sore fingers here,,,got a bit attached to the old glue gun...oooops 

 

No parcel yet Maggie,no post at all today actually...

 

and no it wasn't under any choklit wrappers you cheeky lot...it was in a pile of material that I'd supposed to have already checked,in my defence it was folded in with another bit that matched but was plain so I must have thought about using them together.

 

Got to crack on....I'm two days behind....flippin' material....

 

 

 

my hextra speshul smileys are broken 😞 booooooooo

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

Twishy just think how much chocklit you couldn't have whilst your fingers were stuck together.  Did you have withdrawal symptoms?

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

My mum was just saying that there's that old people going to A & E and being kept in hospital therefore taking up beds which doesn't help does it?  Having said that, I had to get my mum into hospital last new years eve didn't I?  My mum doesn't realise at times that she is 81 now and doesn't realise that she is 'old'.  Honestly, mothers.

 

Hope that you hear soon CB.

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

Oi whats going on in here ????

 

No-one posted on this thread at all yesterday so I'll start things off this morning.

 

It's blinkin freezin here and a real hard frost first thing this morning, really wanted to stay in bed wrapped up in the duvet.

 

Got a mountain of wrapping to do tonight and really must get a shift on doing it or will still be sticking stuff together xmas morning.

Re: THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

I agree Stan.  The thread has been quiet lately.

 

We have a lot of dark cloud overhead and we have been forecast rain for today.  Never mind.  At least rain is better than snow.
