I have been stitching on Bygone Stitches A Quaker Christmas for the rest of the week in an evening. I am loving it so far and am so pleased I chose red as the main colour as the Carrie's Creations Old World Red is just gorgeous. I think I messed up when I bought 13 skeins of it as I'm stitching with one strand of thread and the model is stitched with two so I should have a few skeins left for something else:) I'll be carrying on with this until my Sunday JN SAL with Nic:) 
Abi finally went back to school yesterday although she still didn't feel 100% but today she's much better and is actually managing to eat better. DH is on a first aid refresher course, as he's one of the first aiders where he works ( this is someone who hates the sight of blood!), and he wasn't feeling well this morning but we think it could be nerves as he's got his assessment today and wasn't looking forward to it. Finger's crossed he gets on OK today but I have every faith in him. Jess just wants us all to stay away from her so we don't give whatever Abi and I have had to her! Lol!
I am looking forward to this afternoon as Chris is coming to visit to hand over the RR, have a cuppa and a natter. So I'm popping out in a bit to see if my BBD Where My Heart Blooms is ready at the framers so she can see it. That is if I can catch Billy to get him back in his cage! He came out on his own yesterday but this morning Jess got him out of his cage and I can't get him back in! Lol!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Looks like we're in for another cold, blustery one!
Hugs

I love the colour you're using for Quaker Christmas! When I eventually stitch this, I'm planning on using a red/green overdyed thread and I hope it looks as nice as yours :)
Lovely progress on Sea Stars too!
Oh wow both look fabulous!! I am really enjoying seeing sea stars grow.
Hope you managed to get Billy back in!
Great progress on SS and Quaker.

Love the red on QC, the softer tones really suit it, & it's coming on great. SS is just gorgeous. Would love to know all the colours you've used on it.
