Nailpolish of the Month

So who likes my new nail polish? Yes it is blue but it can't be too radical because my boss hasn't said anything about it (mind you he is a man...)
I do wear gloves all day as I work in a dental surgery, so I don't really get to flash my hands in peoples faces - just mouths haha, and my work is a little conservative...unlike me...maybe I'm in the wrong job...

I am doing a special post for tomorrow as it is the 1 year anniversary of the earthquakes, it's a bit of a sad and poignant post but I can't believe it's been a year, feels like yesterday

Egypt and Egyptian Garden Mandala

Image
In March I went to Egypt. This had been on my list of places to visit for a long time, and I absolutely loved it! The view from the hotel room, you can imagine how excited I was when I saw that view! The wonderful Egyptian Museum  We spend 4 fabulous day on a Nile cruise Me in my galabia Anyway on to stitching, and since I had been to Egypt, I had to start my Egyptian Garden Mandala by Chatelaine Designs. I have been rather remiss in my posting so I shall try harder! I do enjoy watching flosstube though, maybe one day I will do my own. I am going back to Egypt in December so I am very excited about that! Happy stitching! Michelle

Trophies and a Party

Image
Well I had an interesting weekend, we had our prize giving for the Time Trial club and I won a trophy! Actually I didn't win it for this season, I won it last season but we didn't have a prize giving and no one had told me I had won it! Needless to say I was very pleased with myself and it was fun seeing MY name engraved on the trophy! Here I am feeling very pleased with myself... You may remember from my last post I was going to my friends 40th birthday party, well we had an awesome time and stayed up until 4am! A good time was had by all and I have one or two pictures to show, some of them aren't fit for general viewing (I don't really need to say more) This is at the start of the night, so were looking pretty good Lucy is very talented and plays the drums, piano, sings and can also play the ukulele! (think I spelt it right) Anyway onto the stitching. I have still only been doing the Holiday Cookies so not much to show other than that.. Before- After- I

My Little French Obssesion

There hasn't been a whole lot of stitching going on since I finished Tuscany Town, I am now back at work so   even though that's good because I get a decent pay packet now, I don't have the time I use to for stitching! I have how ever been working on the Multiplication Sampler, and this actually stitches up quite fast because you only use one colour. Before- After- I have also brought another Chatelaine! The new addition is Lake Como I already have some fabric - 32-count white sparkles from Country Stitch, so all I need now is some threads... I have started a new project, it's called Je T'aime by Anette Eriksson, out of the February issue of the Cross Stitcher magazine. Fabric 28-count Linen DMC thread It uses 3 strands of thread so uses up a lot of thread rather quickly, but looks great! I will be making it into a cushion (one day...) I was having a clean out of my cupboards the other day and found all sorts of trea
