Another instalment of 'flower pot sticks' . . .

These are so cute!

Great that you paid it off, I almost think 18 is too young to be given so much credit. I had one at 18 too and went a bit crazy! Now I never leave anything on my statement so I don't pay interest, I really use it to buy online rather than use a debit card.

Anyway, good luck with saving for a house ...

Sorry to hear that it must be a tough time for you both. Hope you can manage to stay positive, I know that's a lot harder to do than say.

Thank you all so much

I was definitely inspired by the forum so me wanting to work on these projects is your fault

Thanks! And thanks again for the chart, love it

I posted this in the wanted forum as well for charts people share which they have the copyright to. Haven't made masses of progress with my two WIPs but I had to do something else and made the following thank you card from Kell's design. I love it :)

I used part of Kell's design to make a thank you card for my boyfriend's mother (she came to visit on our ski season and treated us to lots of lovely meals etc). LOVE the way it turned out!

Thanks so much for posting the design!

Thanks everyone! I'm so glad I joined this forum, you are all so encouraging :) and I love looking at your stitching also.

I'm making good progress with the KISS cushion and will probably save Green with Envy until the first for UFO week!

Have a good weekend everyone. I'm dreading travelling in ...

Good luck! I hate moving, mostly because I've done it so much over the past 3 years. Looking for a long-term flat now so hopefully only one more move in the foreseeable future!

I don't know the whole of Basingstoke that well but I visited a friend there once and it was lovely. Hope you enjoy it ...

Now that I'm home I've started on the Emily Peacock Kiss cushion. Loving it so far, it's really easy to do which makes a nice change from my Green with Envy project as I'm not stitching on dark aida or only sticking to a few colours. I haven't done much so far:

I just got back from being away in France for 5 months and was really worried about missing my Mum (and her missing me) but it went so quickly and it was such a great experience. I'm sure he'll have a fabulous time and it's so great when you get to see each other again! Will you get a chance to ...

Aw, thanks guys!

So I'm about to leave France to go back home to the UK, very excited! Anyway, it seemed like a good time to post an update on this:

Buffy bookmarks?? I've watched every episode. Have any pics of the finished product?

Me too! Watched every episode at least twice! Would love to do a Buffy bookmark for my friend who also loves Buffy...

I love Buffy and have only recently watched Firefly which I really enjoyed! I've never stitched anything related to this though...would quite like to. If anyone can recommend any patterns could be good for my to do list!

As the characters seem to be on a plain background can you not just re-adjust for the mistake and copy the characters themselves rather than worrying about the pages lining up? Not sure if that makes sense...

Anyway, love this, would be a shame not to go back to it at some stage but I can imagine ...

I'll be working on my Serenity project for the UFO week. It will be a UFO for quite some time, but hopefully this will encourage me to keep at it steadily. Before and afters to come after the 7th. :)

(Serenity, the ship from the show Firefly).

Brilliant! I'm ashamed to say I've only just got ...

I'll second that. It looks like Stevo to me.

I'll third that, definitely Stevie G!
