I decided to be brave and fiddle around with my blog for a new look. I'm not sure if it's what I want so I may change it again! (Now that I know what to do! lol)
Anyway, I know you're here for some stitchy news so I'll get straight on with it!
I have managed to squeeze some stitching in this week along with trying to catch up with my course work (nearly there!) Here's my progress on Simple Treasures so far...
I'm still really enjoying this design and can't wait to get a bit more done. I feel like I'm almost at the half way point now, which of course means......time to start thinking of what the next project will be! Hee hee! I've got my eye on a couple of things already....so please, no reminders that I have a Geisha sitting as a UFO.
This month's issue of Card Shop (or maybe it's last months as it takes so long to get here) arrived - but who can complain about a Cross Stitch mag arriving, certainly not me! This was another great read and some more stitching to add to my to-do list. The Polka Dot cards that I was asked to design were in this issue and looked great (even though I say it myself!) stitched on a variety of lovely pastel coloured fabrics.

My wonderful postie also delivered an envelope filled with the samples that I had made for Craftseller magazine. The samples are returned to me after publication and these are the goodies the envelope contained...
A couple of Mother's Day cards...
...with lots of paper layering....
Some cross stitch coasters...
(don't you love it when the sun comes out when your taking pictures!!!)
And finally some key rings that you have seen before, (sun still shining!)
Phew...after all that, maybe it's time for a cuppa, or maybe it should be iced tea since the sun is still shining!
Until next time...happy stitching!
