Lovely little sampler and a great start on the lily.

A big welcome back to your stitchy bug too.

At least the sampler is out of the way now. It looks fantastic though!

Great start on the tulip, such a pretty series.

So very glad your stitchy bug has finally returned and I just love the baby sampler you finished, very adorable. The tulip is looking fantastic already!!!

I love the baby sampler!

I really like the way you have picked out the colour of the girl's tights to do the lettering and the mount and frame are perfect. It was well worth perservering with and I'm sure Francesca will love it when she's older.

It IS pretty! But I agree - I decided before even trying that biscornu was not for me! They seem to be rather like Tribbbles in original Startrek: eternally multiplying till one is drowned in 'em!

And now I've finished reading the whole thread - lovely work!

I especially love the twin birth pics, they are charming.

Such pretty colours in the magnolia, and I love the fabric. That bookmark looks very nice as well.

As many of you know my son is in USA and he is staying with a host family who have 4 daughters. He wants to give the girls some English choc and sweets which I will be sending out to him and also some little gifts. I have stitched these little bags for them, the purple one is for the 15 yr old, the red one for the 12 yr old who is soccer mad, the turqouise for the 8 yr old and the pink for the 5 yr old who are both keen on gymnastics.
I thought he could fill the bags with goodies.

I have given the link for the site I got the bags from, they do all types of bags of various sizes and also aprons, in case anyone is interested. I think their prices are quite good with speedy delivery

I've ordered from that company before, but hadn't seen these -- they are great, you've made them so personal!

Which size are these?

What wonderful gifts these are. The girls will always remember you son when they use them.
