Re: Stitching from Stash Challenge Support/Confession Thread

Hi all
I like Mel keep bidding on eBay as a sort of faux spending. Lucky for me I have some Christmas money still unspent in the kitty. Bought myself a magnifying floor lamp - I seriously needed it as I have none and the eyes are not what they used to be. It is going to be tough sticking to the $25 ...

Re: When you know you've gone wrong...

Hi there
I have done the frog and the adjustment to correct mistakes in my stitching. The trouble with the adjustment is that I know that I boo booed - to OCD. Also it was a kit with no extra floss to spare. Even worse I kept on making slips in stitching. Good luck in what you decide.
Cheers Linda

Hi everyone
I thank you for your comment Christel. Though I must say that I would have been further advanced on my UFO but for having slept! I am trying to squeeze the last few moments on it in before it turns midnight and becomes the 7th - cannot see me stopping though. Hope everyone has the same ...

Re: UFO Club (1st to 7th of each month)

Hi there
I am glad to read that UFO's are coming out. I looked at 'Kittens in Boots' and thought that my Christmas one can wait a little. I have dedicated about 12 hours so far and have nearly completed a quarter now - that is the tulips in flowerpots and the part of the picture window. Wish I had a ...

Re: UFO Club (1st to 7th of each month)

Hi all !! I have been reading all your posts and am impressed with this thread. I have been sooooo snowed under with other things i.e. work study etc and in truth I do get mood issues in getting depressed at times and have not participated as much as I would have liked in the forum. I have several ...

Re: UFO Club (1st to 7th of each month)

Hi. I wish that my UFO were that unfinished. It is a beautiful image of the Titanic. I suppose I should get meager effort out - bell pull of cats.
