I have been busy.....

Hello friends..

I have been stitching away in my stitching corner.... I am so happy as I have managed to finish off my mum's Prairie Schooler ornament for her.  I was experimenting with shapes and wanted to make something in a shape I have never created before... think I did an OK job :)What do you think?

Front...

Back...

I have learned so much from making this ornament, working with such a small thing was slightly tricky for me.  It actually took me a few days to complete as it was starting to frustrate me, and I had to put it down for a few days!  So pleased I stuck with it and finished it, just hope my mum likes it now.

It was Frances that got me hooked on making ornaments!  Thank You as they are a lot of fun :)  And oooh I also love Prairie Schooler now too!! Job done Frances!! ha aha ha

I have been working more on my pumpkins too...

Started like this...

And this is where I am now....

I am really enjoying these pumpkins a lot, the design has them in a another color.  For me I love the design but the color of the original pumpkins made no sense to me, hence why I changed them!  Do you know the design?  I bet you get it from the next part of the design!?

Oooohhhh yes!!!

Goodness!!!  

Today I received a wonderful packet from my Round Robin partner Catherine, she sent me a wonderful sheep design and some 'nice happy things' too! :)

I think the sheep design she stitched is a Shepherds Bush design, its adorable :)

Here is the packet.. lovely paper :)

Cute adorable sheep...

And ooohhh 'nice' things! :)

Those buttons are so lovely... and these pegs are so tiny and cute too :)  Oh yes and look at the sparkly fabric to :)

Thank You ever so much Catherine, it was very kind of you to send me these 'happy' things too :)

I am very excited at my next Round Robin challenge... its so much fun to take part in.  Its been organized by the lovely June... at the top of my page I have a button showing all the Round Robin things so far and a link to June's blog to see more :)  So pleased I decided to join in :)

OK.... well Han and I nipped out today to get Jon a birthday gift.. ha ha it a fun one this year as he told us not to buy him anything!  As if!!  You will find out tomorrow as its his birthday tomorrow!  I will post photo's :)

Happy stitching everyone..

Smiles to you all :)
