Last But Not Least...

This is the last Christmas card I stitched and was for my friend Em, who definitely deserves a stitched card.  She bought me a stunning lamp for Christmas, one of those with a pretend flame made out of fabric.  All I got her was a Laura Ashley mug.  Guilty!

Also here is a update of my Long Winter’s Nap socking.

The first page is nearly finished and I’ve had a ball doing it.  There is a lot of boring beard to do on the next page down but I loved that the first page had his face on it.

Been feeling a bit down lately.  I think my depression is rearing its ugly head again.  All I want to do is stay at home and hide, so I bought myself some beautiful tulips to try and cheer myself up a bit.  I’ve had two days off work and I’m due back tomorrow and I’m absolutely dreading it.  No particular reason, I just don’t want to go out.  I told my husband on Monday night that I felt content and he was really pleased to hear that, but it was only because I knew that I could hide away for the next two days at home.

Dave’s Mum & Dad’s Christmas Card...

This is the card I stitched for Dave’s Mum & Dad for Christmas.  Same range as my parent’s card.  I only stitched three cards last year. Normally everyone gets one but I just didn’t feel like it.

I have started a new project.  A Long Winter’s Nap Stocking from Heaven & Earth Designs.  This is my progress so far after two weeks.

I’m loving it.  I’m just going to complete one page and then put it away so I don’t get bored.  

Also, look what I found in my local Home Bargains.  I presume it’s a child’s lunch box but I’m using it to store my threads in.

Very Cath-esque I thought, and only £1.29!!!
