A Stitching Love Affair

Well that's not entirely true, I have done a bit more on Tuscany Town...but it was my birthday last Friday and I don't really like the idea of getting older so I just tend forget how old I am, but BF kindly put in my birthday card "happy 37th birthday" thank you very much!!! I told him it was a typo and he should fix it...he just laughed at me...LOL! Anyway I had a lovely weekend with lots of dinners and lunches out with family and friends. So here is my progress on Tuscany Town: Before- After- So I have finished all the little Italian trees and I have started on the squares in the corners, I am slowly getting there and I hope to finish it by March 2013 so I can enter it in the Oxford A & P show, which is the local agricultural show but also has a handcraft and cooking sections, so fingers crossed I will have it done by then. I also got myself a little birthday present- Are they not the prettiest shoes you have ever seen!!! they are very high and I am ...

Woo Hoo!! I have finished Nora Corbetts letter "M" Recommended Threads - Cresent Colours Mill Hill Beads 32-count Linen I have also been doing a bit on the Chatelaine "Tuscany Town" Before- After- It's coming along nicely and if I'm very good I may have it finished by the end of the year! LOL! Also a progress picture on the Enchantment of Winter Before- (stitching is upside down by the way - oops my bad...) After- Just started on the 1 over 1 and not really enjoying that! Unfortunately there is quite a bit of it. I have done a bit more on Mirabilia's "Goddess of Wisdom" Before- After- Thanks to DMC changing the colours slightly, some of the blue is a different shade from the parts I have already done. GRRRRRR Not sure what I am going to do about that yet.... I hope you have been enjoying the Olympics, most of the live coverage here in New Zealand is on during the small hours of the morning, thank goodness for the Mysky...
