THE FHG SEWING THREAD :-D

[ilove2patch]

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

meant to say but my fingers press post to quickly

Well done with getting the dolls finished on time, i hope you sell all and get lots of orders for more 🙂

[****merlin*****]

oh well, seems we are already then

[*hippyfairy*]

Thanks Gems & Merlin

Be lovely to sell loads - my bank balance needs it.

[ilove2patch]

Of course they will sell. You make lovely dolls.:-)

I think ours is in July isn't it hippy?  All our TVs are 'ready'??  Where is your shop? I can just see the dollies all sitting together in the window, and one by one they get sold..........until there is just one, sitting there all by herself...........................wondering why no one loves her..........:_|   You'd better get making plenty more hippy, so that one is never left on her own!:-D

I do the same CG, use streetview to "see" a journey or destination beforehand, makes me a lot more confident about going somewhere new 😄

Morning all, very misty here and can't see across our field yet, hope it turns into a nice day. Yesterday was the first "proper" springlike one here 🙂

[****merlin*****]

morning ladies:-D

we dont have any weather today, its not cold, not warm, not sunny, not dull, no rain or snow, nothing

[*hippyfairy*]

Morning

CG - the dolls are off to the florists in town - she also sells other gift sort of stuff - wants as much of it as poss to be local & handmade 🙂 A friend makes cushions/bunting etc and another makes jewellery.

We have fog here (again) - hoping it clears later - I wanted to take photos outside.

morning

Hippy there a a few shops in southwold that have allsorts of little things in the windows,  have you tried a little further afield?

was a little misty around teatime last night but now its sort of cloudy here, felt warmer in the night - or maybe that was just me 😐

[*hippyfairy*]

Towery - at the mo I shall stay local and see how it goes. If this shop takes off then I'd be happy. Don't want to get into a situation were I have to make dolls all the while.

Am still waiting to hear back from someone else who had contacts in a couple of other places.

[ilove2patch]

Morning.:-) It's a beautiful warm sunny spring day here.

[learning2me]

Heavy fog and rain here - not nice at all 😞

[chickengrandma-2008]

Morning ladies.:-D  It's not as foggy today as it was yesterday but it's just grey and cold.

Daughter has just been and cut our hair.  Hubby has the shears, No.4, and I have the scissors.  I think she got a bit carried away with the conversation, it's rather short!:O  Shouldn't need doing again until Christmas!!

I wonder if my sewing things will turn up today, only been waiting 9 days!!!:-(

[learning2me]

CG I waited 9 days for 3 parcels all posted First Class.

They turned up yesterday on the post van, and the postie said he was on holiday last week 😮 It looks like nobody did his deliveries while he was off X-(

*watches out for WANTED poster with pic of CG on*

Afternoon 😄

Dull grey misty rain & fog here, I wonder if Merlin has been swooshing her weather down our way 😉

Been out for breakfast this morning with hubs & daughter, very nice it was too 🙂

Going into Mexborough now to the library, you didn't know i could read dids ya! 😛

[petitecalicocat]

OOh CK get well soon 🙂

Merlin can you sew a tiny hem by hand or if you have a sewing machine with a roll hem foot that would do it nicely .

[hiddengems2010]

Like this Merlin & it wont take you long

[chickengrandma-2008]

Well I DID actually think of that (ok, you don't believe me :-p) but I thought it would cause a problem right on the corner?

[****merlin*****]

roll hem foot?
