Good morning all. Someone stole my sunshine and replaced it with rotten rain 😞
Finished Mum's Hug Shawl last night, can't wait to take it up for her, hopefully next weekend. When she wears this, I will be able to Hug her every night 🙂 Was lovely to make, quite easy, and I just adapted it a little as the pattern had no collar, and I didn't like the finish row on the pattern, so made up my own :^O

Afternoon all. Hope that everyone is as well as can be expected.
Love the hug shawl Welshie. It's lovely. Your mum will love that.
It pouring with rain here at the moment and not sign of any sunshine whatsoever. Oh how I hate the rain.

Arggg! Am searching on ebay for some felt to back brooches with, all that is coming up is loads from Hong Kong! Does anyone know of a UK supplier at all please?
21-04-2013 3:26 PM
I buy mine at the local craft shop but try ticking the UK only on the left of your search.

Welshy that hug shawl is beautiful, it does indeed look very huggy 😄
Well surprise! surprise!......not only did I wake up to most gorgeous day, been outside for most of it 😄
But my phone rang and a little voice said "hello Nanny" It was my 11 year old Grandson Aaron, haven't seen him since last November..........an upset in the family :_|
Anyway, bless him, he asked if he could come and see me.................I, of course, said yes 😄
So sad when an upset in the family happens, I was there when Aaron was born and we've been so close every since, it was breaking my heart when I couldn't see him:_|
Anyway we've had a lovely time, chatting and catching up, cuddles, chocolate and fizzy drinks, of course!! and now he's happily playing on the play station. Such a happy day for us both all round :-x
Here's pics 😄
:O.........I look so anaemic and bloomin old there 😞
21-04-2013 5:08 PM
Aww, how lovely that you have had chance to catch up and spend time with him 🙂 I moan sometimes about not getting peace and quiet, as the Grandkiddies and their parents all live with us, but I cannot really imagine being without them for too long a time 🙂
21-04-2013 5:28 PM
Lovely pics of you both , isnt it nice to get together with family for a catch up . The shawl is beautiful must taken a lot of work to make it.
21-04-2013 5:34 PM
Awwwww Mandy. I bet you had a lovely time with Aaron. What a handsome young man and he obviously loves you to bits. Both photos are lovely.
:-x

Lovely pic of you both Mandy
I don't see my eldest grandaughter very often as they live so far away in Kent
Welshy love the shawl, i have just got a book on Bavarian crochet, that i think i will give a try
The picture of Ruby & I was taken on Friday
Have just made my self a moth brooch, hope this helps me get over my fear of them
21-04-2013 5:47 PM
Love both the photos Rhubarb especially the one with you and Ruby.
At the moment, I'll be seeing Grace and her mum next week. Steph is a nursery nurse and she takes Grace with her on Wednesdays and Fridays. I'll go and pick them up from the nursery on Wednesday of next week and they will be having their tea with us. I can't wait as I love them both to bits. I'll take some more piccies of them both so you can all see Steph as well.
21-04-2013 5:48 PM
Gorgeous pic Ruth :-x
Good idea with the moth brooch, I haven't really got a fear of them, but I can't say I'm keen on them either, hate it when they get in your face, flapping around 😐
Thank you for your kind words 🙂 I feel a bit sad now though, Aaron's just left to go home, he has homework to finish. But he said he'll be back soon 😄
21-04-2013 5:50 PM
I'm so glad that you'll be seeing Aaron again soon Mandy. :-x
21-04-2013 5:51 PM
