Final prep for the Spring Fair in our village where I have a stall - this is my demonstration piece, which I will invite visitors to have a go at, trying a few stitches.

Re: 2024 Quick Daily Posts

Re: Mabel's designs 2024
I needed something simple to take to a family weekend so quickly transferred a tulip based on one by Dick Bruna (who drew Miffy).

Re: 2024 Quick Daily Posts
Oh well. Interesting weekend. It sounds it :shock: . May I say that your brother sounds, ehm, rather different from you? The house - yes, that won't be an easy sell, both because of the state and because of its location. On the other hand, there are people who like that sort of thing; a challenge, ...

Re: 2024 Quick Daily Posts
Richard, this gives a whole new meaning to "roast lamb" :shock: Your theory about their hearts stopping is, I think, correct - I once read about being near an impact you must make yourself as small as possible (or was it as long as possible? Oops, I can't remember...) to minimise the risk ...

Re: 2024 Stash & Grab Virtual Pub
OK, it's not the World Domination that DH keeps urging on Mabel, but Stitch magazine have asked if I'd like to be their Meet the Artist profile feature for the edition with Bunny Beware in it. I'm chuffed to bits - beverages-with-snack-of-choice all round!
