BOINK is completed. I will wait until I decide how I want to finish it and what fabric to use for the backing...... I am leaning toward a cushion.

Hi everyone

I've not been here abouts very much again lately I'm afraid - real life has a nasty habit of taking over unfortunately.

Good to see a finished boink Socialsue! Well done - I know the effort that's gone into it!!An inspiration to the rest of us to get going?!!

Mabel - how I envy your beautiful stitching...I am really looking forward to seeing the end result with the lovely floss you are using.

How's yours coming along Jilly? Hope you're making some headway too!

Well here's my very meagre progress...

Image


I've not done much at all I'm afraid but to get me back into the swing of things I started work on the friendship exchange project yesterday - loving every minute of that! I was afraid I'd leave it too late if I waited to finish my boink!

BTW - my brother-in-law is doing very well after his brain op and my mother is virtually 100% recovered from having 104 (yes 104 - that's not a typo) kidney stones removed a couple of weeks ago!!
