Aida sounds perfect for sewing in bed as the holes are easier to see and I can see why you were itching to start on the Daffs :wink:

Not sure about leaving the Lowery "upstairs" the idea of carrying it up and down the stairs could be dangerous :thinks: maybe you need another for downstairs :lol:

Oh no what I meant was I took Sweet Peas off the Lowery and put Daffodils on instead. I leave my stand up in my room. Now Daffs is on the stand and I can do Sweet Peas handheld ;)

Finished and framed Sweet Peas today! I have had barely any strength or will to do anything what with being ill with Covid but I persevered :tizzy:

:applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: Looks lovely. Doesn't matter how long it took you to do this. Make sure you stay at a pace that is not exhausting. You aren't in a race to get things done quickly. But I will wish you a quick and complete recovery from the virus!

Nicola that is so beautiful and such lovely colours. I love sweet peas and we always grew some in every home we lived in - they bring spring closer for sure. :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Do take care of yourself and try not to overdo anything. Your body needs rest and peace to recover.
