Darn It!

Well I was going to post my WIPs today but my camera died while I was taking photos so I'll have to wait now while the battery charges. However I can now post the RAK/ thank you that I mentioned in my last post as the photo for that is on my computer:)

You may remember that dear June kindly offered to send me the chart from Cross Stitcher for the exchange piece that she stitched for Christina. Not only did she send me that but she also RAK'd me with a bag, some lace and a felt bird. I wanted to send June a little thank you for being so kind and here is what I stitched for her.

Thank you/ RAK for June

I am so happy to say that June loves it. I just love this polka dot ribbon that I bought from Crafty Ribbons a while ago. I added some small red beads as I was gathering the ribbon and a made with love heart charm on the top. 

I still haven't got my Midsummer Night Designs Remember Me Stitching Pocket finished up properly. I really need to to get myself motivated to do it. It's not as though I have loads to do and the worst bit is done so I need to sit myself down and just do it! I still have loads to make up from my finishes over the last 3 months and before that. I think I've hit a bit of a funk as I seem to finish everything as either a pincushion or pinkeep. My L*K 6 Fat Men is at the framers. It's been there about 3 weeks. It was supposed to be done in 2 weeks but it wasn't ready when I went. I've been in again and it wasn't done so will go again when I've been to the dentist this afternoon. The ladies at craft club said I'm too nice and I should have said I needed it doing for such a date!

On the knitting front I've finished one of Jess' fingerless mitts and am well on the way with the other one. My Crest of a Wave baktus is almost done as I got plenty knitted at craft club on Tuesday. First time I've been since before my f.i.l died so it was nice to get back. 

Hopefully I'll be back with some progress in a day or two. I'm half caught up with blog reading and commenting and it's good to get back to that too. I've missed seeing what everyone is up to.

Until next time.

With much love.
