"If you can count the number of projects you have going , you need to begin another, so you have a varied range of complexity from the very simple 'mind-less' ones to those that demand undivided attention." (Laura Early).

One in , one out .

When I took Chicken Run to the framers the other day , I was really pleased to find out that Moon Struck was all done and ready for me , so I brought it home . Just got to wait until next week to see if SIL likes it . If not , she can have the money and I'm keeping it , lol .
Jane has received her giveaway prize , so I'll be able to show you what else I sent to her now ,
I included a pair of craft scissors , and made a little hanging bunny . Jane loves bunnies ,so I knew this would be perfect for her .
This is the back

My husband also stitches and has a couple of projects in progress at the moment , but he's not stitching at the moment . Meanwhile , I've been getting fed up of having to hunt for threads I need when they're stashed away in his project boxes. So , I did a full check on my thread boxes and filled in the gaps .Lots of lovely stash . This was ordered from Sewing Club Express , and I'm really pleased with the order . DMC threads at 32p each , free p&p and they were delivered on Friday after being ordered late Tuesday afternoon. Not bad !

I have been stitching , but can't show it yet as it's for exchanges .

Denise is having a great giveaway , if you want to nip over and have a look .

Thanks for dropping by ,

Cath.

Jane seemed very pleased with her new stitching buddy after Tilly ate her floss. ;0)

I completely agree - there is nothing more frustrating than hunting for floss! That's why we should all have as much floss as we can store!!

I kinda hope your SIL doesn't like the piece - that way you get to keep it!

Smiles - Denise
ps - thanks for the promo!

Moon Struck is gorgeous Cath! Can't blame you for wanting to keep it!

Lovely prize you sent to Jane. The bunny is so cute.

Thanks for the link to where you buy your threads.

If you SIL doesn't like it, I'll send you the money and I'll have it!!! It's gorgeous and the colour mount and frame compliment it perfectly ~ how can she not like it! xxx

Hi Cath
Moonstruck is gorgeous. Your SIL is going to be delighted. Love the cute bunny too. So your husband is a stitcher too? Mine once tried to do a small flower that came free on a magazine. He wasn't very good!
