It's especially difficult when you see others out and about, but you are shielding for a reason I'd guess, and your health is more important than anything else. Anyway, those mice won't stitch themselves, you know. :P

So very true about quarantining, staying home and about the adorable mouse. Can't wait to see what is next!
Also remember that we span a lot of time zones so if you are up late and feel a need to make contact, I can't guarantee of course that one of us in a different time zone will see your post, but it is always possible.

Thank you for all the kind words and encouragement, its hard being diabetic and asthmatic. I know that the government have said that it is safe to start resuming some normal activities but with social distancing but I'm too scared to risk it, work have got us all working from home which is great but on the other hand doesn't help as I don't really have a need to leave the house!

Having said all that I have started on Dandelion Mouse, because I didn't have all the colours I needed I have changed the colours of the mouse to grey, all credit goes to Margaret Sherry for creating these adorable mice.

Did the "turbo needle" need time to cool down properly. It would be lovely to have a turbo needle right now as I race to get a small card done for youngest son's 52 birthday on Friday Thankfully he is staying with us at present so I can just hand it to him.

I love your new update, and those rings of flowers really finish off the design beautifully. Well done. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

I was worried it was so hot it might burn the fabric!! as I am currently on leave it seems I have loads of time to stitch! I've swapped an 8 hour office for 8 hours stitching.

I'm trying to avoid the news, it just depresses me :(
on a happier note; another one done!! I do plan to wait for the weekend to stitch the last one.

of the three Dandelion is my favourite, it should be a similar colouring to buttercup mouse but I actually prefer it in grey.
