Yes, indeed:
firstly, a back issue (4) of New Stitches which I'd loaned to a friend and never got back.

secondly, the next instalment of editing work. Good thing! Just totted up the cost of aforementioned son at uni.

I just got my Sew and sew order through, they are so speedy, aren't they? Nothing to exciting, just Loran project cards and the DMC sticker things for my bobbins, I fancy a bit of reorganisation!!

Got busy with Hubby trying to get everything organized for his trip and I forgot to tell you that 1 of the 2 squares I am waiting on showed up. My sister finally got it shipped and she said she is working on the other so I hope to have it very soon. Then I will be very busy getting it sewn and quilted.

I will take a picture tomorrow so you can see what it looks like as today is going to be very busy getting things packed and hubby off.
