A little disappointed

I printed out the chart this morning that i bought on pattensonline and it was a really bad copy and far too small for my eyesight :( Looks like it will be staying on file until i either have access to a good printer or i buy another. Oh well i'm sure i'll find something nice to stitch after daisy.

Page 4/6 finished single white daisy



I finished page 4/6 tonight. The confetti was annoying but i am happy with it. It hasn't taken me that long to finish this page. I am looking forward to seeing it finished now :)

New chart


I've just downloaded this pattern by Alessandra Adelaide Needleworks from www.patternsonline.com. There is a sale on at the moment on cat charts and this one was £1.95 in English pounds. I've already done an Angels Garden by the same designer. They are simple but effective charts. I just need to buy some nice opalescent fabric, haven't decided what colour to stitch it on yet :)

Stitching in the sun

 


I've been busy stitching for the past week and today have stitched for a few hours in the sun :) I am now halfway through page 4 of daisy.

Browsing the internet


Two posts in one day! i think i must be bored lol. I've been browsing the internet and have compiled this wishlist for future reference. The first is a new design by Heritage called Scarlett, the 2nd is called Toddles christmas carol and the 3rd is a Haed Stocking Teddy Bear Tree by Dona Gelsinger. The internet is not good for the bank balance, i think toddles will be the first one i buy until i finish the daisy :)

Back to daisy



I have made a start on page 4 of Single White Daisy :) I had a night in last night stitching while the boys went to footy, so i made myself comfy (bad back)  and stitched. I really want to finish it before next April so my Grandma can take it home to Majorca with her. I have coursework too so will need to stitch a little faster! lol.  Some more news - Hannah from Cross Stitch Gold has sent lots of model stitching to the care home i work in. I went in work this morning to have a look. They are lovely and  will look fab when they are displayed.
