Cardboard City

Welcome to Cardboard City!! LOL



This is the sight that will greet me tomorrow, and a painful reminder that there is still more to be getting on with. I hate moving house!!

My PC will be all packed up tomorrow night, and I am not sure when I will be getting back online again, so I will take this chance to say goodbye for now, hope to see you in a few days!!

Now that's why I didn't blog for so long...

I forgot just how addictive blogging can be once you get going. I was up until 2:00am last night making a start on getting things right here, and oh no, I still have such a long way to go!!

This afternoon, I want to show you the Santa I recently finished stitching for the Christmas round robin I was invited to join at Threads of Life:



This is one of a set of 12 ornaments in a Leisure Arts leaflets..the other three ladies in the group will be stitching their choice of the reamining 11, so the final choice and placement will be a surprise. I am really looking forward to working on all the other pieces too, I love Christmas stitching!

Well, back to work n my blog now, sort out a few more of those links. I guess blogs are a permanent work-in-progress, always something new to add!

Welcome

I have decided to move Jo's Journal..I think this free blog has a lot more to offer, and I am hoping it will renew my love of blogging, I've had nothing to write for such a long time!! Please bear with me while I tidy up here, make this page really 'mine', and transfer over all the old entries.

Karen's Cross Stitch Meme - #25

The theme this fortnight was "Olympics" - wishing we'd had more of these....I chose to stitch this gold medal:



If you would like to see what he others stitched, check out the Meme Gallery.

I also had time to stitch this little buterfly as a belated piece for theme #24:



This is stitched on sparkly aida, and will be joined by 4 more critters to make a bookmark for my Gran.

Well, it's 1:15 am, and I have to be up in 5 hours for work, so much as I am aready enjoying becoming re-addicted to blogging, I will call it a night!!
