Been busy....

Welł hello there!!

I have been busy going through my bucket of doooooo!!

With all this extra time on my hands I have been productive... 

Remember this?

Only the bottom corner to finish....

I started on it straight after making my last post...


And look....


All finished....


I am so thrilled it's finished, it's been in the bucket of doooooo forever...go me!!

And now look, I also started back with this one....


The black outline work goes on and on.... And on!! But I have managed to do a fair bit..



It's not quite done... Still a little more to do. But good progress :)

So that was the stitching.

Just a little note... If you follow me or are friends with me on Facebook..... You will not find me on there anymore.  I deactivated my account today after much thought.  

If your wondering why I have chosen to leave Facebook it's just that it's become too stressful.  I loved the interaction of friends and groups, but I seemed to 'live' on there.  There is more to life than Facebook, so I decided to leave! I know there are lots of you that use Facebook, you all know how consuming it can be! So all I will be doing is updating my blog and stitching! Don't worry I have no plans to deactivate my blog! You all cannot get rid of me that easy! 

I popped around a few blogs and I have not seen any Christmas trees! Unless you all snook a post in and I missed it! I would love to see all your Christmas trees.... Have you done a post about it? Post a link I will go see! Thank you :)

Thank you for popping in :)

Happy smiles to you all :)

    Love your finish! You are so right about Facebook. My dd will not allow me to get a Pinterest account as she says I would live on the computer. She is so right! Keep posting on the blog. No post of my tree yet, but maybe later this week.

    THAT is the exact reason I have never done FB. Good for you Jacquie. I do just the blog, and feel that is PLENTY. Ocean Friends is fantastic!

    I agree that Facebook can take over your life! You made a good decision for yourself. Your stitching is beautiful. I admire you for taking on big projects.

    Merry Christmas Jaquie: I love your progress, its always nice to go back to our baskets with UFO's I have started to think about taking out the basket and get going on my UFO's.
    I will post a picture of my tree tomorrow, it is small only because Mike asked me to only put up one and make it small, next year it will be bigger.


    Merry Christmas

    A big YAY for the Dolphins' Happy Dance! It looks lovely on that fabric.

    I'm sure we will see the same amazing progress on the Egyptian piece too.

    I must have missed the bucket of doooo! But I like what has come out of it. A finish already and another one on the way. Well done!
    Here's hoping you all have a wonderful Christmas and that 2016 is a much better year for you than 2015 has been.

    The Dolphins look fabulous, I have a friend who has it famed on her bathroom wall.
    Another friend stitched the King Tut too.... how strange.

    So much stitching progress, Jacquie. That dolphin piece is such a beauty and yeah, you finished it. All the backstitching on the Egyptian piece will certainly take a while but you will get there.
    I have a blog only and have never been on FB - and I don't have the impression that I miss something. More time on the computer would mean less stitching time, so no FB for me. At the moment at least.
