Well I finally went back to Tuscany Town Mandala, and this how far I have got - Before- After- Well I must say I am getting there, and hopefully I can actually finish it this year! Here is my progress on Holiday Cookies before I put it away for a wee holiday... Before- After- Maybe I will even finish this one as well!

When and only when I have finished one of these two WIPs can I start another one - Oh the agony!!! Other than stitching nothing much has been happening at my house, winter is nearly upon us and it's getting really cold, so I have set up my bike on the indoor trainer (it's virtual reality) so I can go cycling in France! Stops me getting completely bored and throwing the whole bike out the window :) Happy Stitching! Michelle

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...

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
