Bad, bad Sally had a new start on Wednesday! Bad, bad Sally does not regret it one little bit! I had got a bee in my bonnet about starting HAED Tiny Treasures letter J which Jennifer very kindly RAK'd me with last weekend. Thankfully I had enough threads to start it and just the right sized piece of 25 count fabric ( these are charted for 18 count but I decided on 25 count) so I gridded for the first page and away I went. I was intent on just stitching a bit in an afternoon when I got the chance but the new start went to my head a bit and I ended up stitching on her every night except Friday so here's the result. I love this piece so far. It's just so nice to stitch, big blocks of colour and little confetti. On Friday the DMC arrived from my floss fairy, Kelly, so I now have plenty of thread to complete this piece. 
The little PIF gift has arrived safely with it's new Mum over in Germany so I can now show a picture of it. June kindly sent me a couple of Just Nan complimentary charts a few weeks ago so I decided I'd repay her kindness so, as she loves snowmen, I stitched her this wee fella and I can't for the life of me find the link to it but it is a freebie fron Angelsan. The finishing didn't go exactly as I wanted but I am happy with it and June loves it:)
I'm getting a bit worried about the needleroll I stitched for the secret exchange on S&S. It's nearly two weeks since I posted it and, as far as I know, it hasn't been received yet. I am keeping my finger's crossed that it still reaches it's destination safely.
And speaking of exchanges I'm taking part in a private Autumn colours biscornu exchange with Hazel, Tracy and Hazel's friend:) We have lots of time too as send out isn't until late September/ early October.
Thank you for all your good wishes on my last post. I am beginning to think I will never be right again. I am stuck in the house at the moment because of "women's problems" as I am that heavy I daren't go out and it's getting me down. DH and the girls have gone to do the fortnightly shop armed with my list so finger's crossed they don't come back with a load of extras that they might fancy!! Lol! I am off for a session of my new DS game which I keep losing as my DH decided he wanted to play on it last night and Jess did the same on Friday for a bit after tea!
Have a good Sunday!
Hugs

You do know that trusting teenage daughters and their dad with the shopping is crazy right? their is alway extras we fancy and all we have to do is go "daddy pleeease i'll even make you and mum a cuppa when we get home" and its ours lol(i know this because im an expert at it lol).
i like the new start it looks quite pretty!

Wow what a great start on the HAED. I started the HARD Celestial Night, but I am not sure of that 1 over 1 thing on that BAP,lol. Seeing your I will pick it up again and see how it grows on me.
The FOB is the cutest.

Your new start is looking lovely! I wish I could justify a new start ... but I can't!
Love the new start Sally!! I hope your needleroll arrives at its destination soon. :o)
Lovely new start - looking forward to seeing more.The fob is adorable - lucky June. :0)
You have my sympathy Sally: I "lose" 3 days out of every month due to the same problem. Got a leaflet for a new procedure you may be interested in that stops flooding problems - going to ask my GP about it. Will email details to you if you like.
Great start on the new project. WOW! You do have such big ones going.
Scissor fobs is soooo cute.
