May's Ornament & Stash

I'm on the ball with my ornament for the Christmas All Year Round SAL this month. I've finished the stitching so just need to make it up sometime.

Country Cottage Needleworks Season of Love ( JCS Ornament preview magazine)

32 count Amber permin linen

DMC

I've finally got my snood blocked and sewn up. I had to block it twice and it still curls up but I figure when it's round my neck it won't matter.

I started another. This one is for Abi.

I had more new stash. Yes I know it's naughty! I ordered from The Patchwork Rabbit on Friday and it arrived on Saturday. Fantastic service.

Just a short post today. I'm in a panic as I go in for my surgery tomorrow ( hopefully) and I'm not feeling too well. I went to craft club this morning, got sat down and I came over all funny. I had got very hot though. It could also be panic I guess. I can't stand the thought of having to cancel so hope I'll be OK for then. Otherwise I'll have to wait another 8/ 9 weeks:(

I'm afraid I haven't got caught up on blogs and won't now so I'll visit you all when I feel up to being on the PC again. See you all on the other side unless I end up not being able to go! 

With much love

Sally

    Oh Sally, I do hope you get to go in now and get it over with. I have prayed it is so and that you do well. I would panic a bit also. :)

    Lovely ornament Sally! Gorgeous snood too.

    I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. I know how you must be feeling as I was just the same before a very minor dental op a few years ago. I'm sure you'll be absolutely fine.

    Sending you my best wishes and hopes that all goes well for you with a speedy recovery! Your recent finishes are all lovely...love Six Fat Men, the Shepherd's Bush and all the others. I'd have no use for a snood here in the hot desert southwest LOL but it's lovely.

    Hi, Sally! I love that scarf! The yarn you used is perfection. Your stitching has been such eye-candy for me on Facebook, but I'm glad I stopped by to tell you. Your blog is dynamite, too. I've missed chatting with you. Don't forget I'm still on http://lavenroseramblings.blogspot.com as well as my bookishlibraria site. Feel better every day, will you? Hugs...
