I have had a rather nasty stomach bug so no stitching of late for me.On a happier note I hope to trace Christmas pattern tomorrow once I have been out to get ink. The stitching will begin. I have my pattern on order and hope this comes soon! Happy Stitching.

Chooky, I've decided to cheer from the sidelines. I've started making quilts for our service people & for this year at least, I'll put my sewing time into that. I see that a lovely bunch of ladies have signed up from all over the world & I will enjoy following everyone's journey. cheers, Jan Q
