A Finish & Other Stuff

I put my last stitch into “Cheryl” (which I have been stitching along with the other members of the SAL) on Sunday evening, but due to the rotten weather the light has not been any good to take photos, but today is sunny and bright so without further ado…here she is….

I was luck enough to trade with Sally this week for a Ewe Eye and Friends chart she had completed, it arrived in the post this morning and I think this will have to be a start I do soon…I love it!!

Not been up to much exciting recently, I have finally completed the curtains for Martha’s bedroom, I hand stitched the ribbon trim on them with invisible thread last night…what a job and a half that was…lol!! Just the bunting to start now, why do we think these are going to be good ideas…!

Talking of Martha…just a couple of piccies I took this morning…she decided she wanted to pose for these..

I did start my “teaching” at school this week…I must admit I was really nervous, but the children were lovely…if somewhat over excited (I couldn’t be a teacher..lol!) My maths course is going well and lots of fun and I also start my School Governors course next week so I am going to be busy over the next few months.

Well enough of my ramblings…I better go and do some ironing…boo…hiss!!
