Oh dear

So much achieved on retreat last weekend, and so little done this week. Hoping to put the final stitches in my SSCS and get the binding on my nieces quilt this weekend (just have to get a pesky assignment finished out of the way first).

A little retail therapy at Hatched & Patched to cheer me up. No idea when I will sew this......hopefully before Christmas!

And a progress pic of my cross stitch which I am loving.

We are having really hot, dry weather at the moment. It's almost too hot to sew! We're having an air conditioner installed in our bedroom today so I may retreat to sew in bed later today.

Hope you have a happy weekend with lots of time for stitching.

  7. What a darling Christmas project - I could send you a bit of our cold and snow - we have 12" on the ground so there is some to spare...and temperature is dropping to 0.
    Hoping you can find a way to cool off....

  14. That Christmas bauble looks sweet! I do hope you get a chance to make it up before Christmas because I’m dying to see what it looks like.

    Your cross stitch sampler looks amazing. I haven’t done Cross Stitch in years ...maybe I need to break out some aida cloth and threads?
