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
Afternoon
Postie brought me a pair of socks (no idea what to do with them ;)) - thank you CK :-x
Also some fabric samples from one of Merlins sites. Very nice, but very small :O

We'll all have to do some mini patchwork with our mini samples ;)
BTW Marlin, do hope that your building work is soon done and you can start on your mammoth sewing jobs ;)
building work is halted till the structural engineer comes
and he is in cananda
they built me a workbench though
but its too dusty
i am now sanding down an old dresser to go in there
i have space to do it while they are gone, so i hope i get it finished before they come back
they have taken away everything but some supports
so i can see through now, its weird

Your house must be quite large to have all this going on. Have visions of the Addams Family Mansion ;)
its not that big, 4 bedrooms
tis a bit Addams family inside though:^O
the extra bit has my workbench in it, but thats built into a sort of alcove, i have put loads of jars on it at the mo while i do the dresser (which they were on)
its not a bit of the house thats been used yet so there is kitchen cupboards in there and thats about it really

I have made ties for my Bath Apron today - took ages to turn them 😞 but was worth it in the end 🙂
Need to get everything finished before we go.
