A Stitching Love Affair

I have got my first finish for 2012! Holiday Cookies 28-count white evenweave DMC cottons Phew! didn't think I would get it finished so fast - yes folks this is fast for me! LOL Anyway on to my next WIP and see if I can get another finished...maybe... Michelle

I have some good news - I have a new job! I got sick of my bosses temper tantrums, so I gave my notice and start my new job on the 13th July. I CAN'T WAIT!!! Anyway back to the stitching - I have nearly finished (that's right nearly finished!) Holiday Cookies. Here is my progress: Before- After- Not long now, hopefully I will have finished it by my next post. Other than that I haven't done any other stitching, mostly because I have been out after work or training. We have had a locum dentist at work and she is sooooo nice, therefore we have had a few trips to the pub after work! Unfortunately she was only there for 2 weeks and now my regular, soon to be ex-boss is back :( I do however has some cute Ginga Ninja pictures- He likes to "display" himself in front of the fire. lol! Last night he decided to have a little nap inside Mum's tote bag. It was such a nice day today so I decided to got for a mountain bike ride. Still quite cold but rugged up...

This week we got a big dump of snow, and the worst part was that it froze overnight and was sooo icy in the morning - not good for driving in... Where the tracks in the the snow are, it was solid ice and very very slippery. So that meant we I got a day of work when it was snowing so of course there was only one thing to do - stitch! So far with Tuscany Town mandala I have been doing the little trees Before: After: I have also picked up another WIP, Athena, Goddess of Wisdom by Mirabilia I have also done some more on Holiday cookies Before: After: So overall I had a very busy week, and got done quite a lot of stitching! Also my favourite cyclist Jakob Fuglsang (a.k.a Wonderboy) hehe, won the Tour of Luxembourg Awww....he's so cute! Happy stitching!!! Michelle
