"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).

Red sky in the morning

 Means stay in and stitch .


A beautiful sight this morning has left a very cold and windy day, and to top it off it is now wet .
 So , nothing to do but stay in and stitch . After a full day stitching last Wednesday (the kids were at an after school club so I got an extra hour too) and a few more sessions , I only had the sand left to do on Calm Seas , so now it is Happy Dance time !!!! YAY!
 I mostly enjoyed stitching it , but I'm glad it's done. Quite pleased with how it's turned out ,though it needs a good wash before taking to the framers. It is one of those that looks better from a distance though , as it is taken from a painting.
 So , what next ?
 Well, I have a square to do for LQUK, then I would like to finish off all of my WIPs/UFOs before the end of the year if I can .
 They are  LK ABC Lessons
Christmas Recipe
 and Three Little Maids , which at the moment is only Two ,lol.
 I would love to get these all done so next year can be a clean slate .
 Next year is going to be a Big project year I think , but more on that later .

Thanks for dropping by,
 Cath
