Catching up
I missed an update last week. I got myself into a bit of a tizz with my Train of Dreams, not with the stitching itself but because I couldn’t get comfortable sitting behind my frame. It’s a very big 36 […]
A crafter of many years, now using this blog to share my ongoing projects and tips for others to enjoy. I mainly concentrate now on Heaven and Earth cross stitch designs - with several projects on the go at any one time. Also often found knitting shawls and socks, papercrafting. Easily distracted by new cross stitch patterns. Slave to a tyrannical black n white cat called Yuen.

I really don’t like the hot weather and it’s been hot and stuffy here for quite long enough, which although it’s only been a week or two is still long enough for me. It’s so stuffy and it’s putting me […]
It was fairy day this week so I have been working on Faces of Fairy #70 for the occasion. Her face is now complete so I’ve started filling in some of her lovely purple, blue and pink hair. I seem […]
Had the time to get lots of stitching done this week and without hurting my shoulder or my neck. I’ve put in just over three columns since moving onto the next page. There’s a lot more of the dragon beginning […]
Yes I’m about 25% of the way through the Train of Dreams, this week was week 9 and I now have 4 pages complete so only 12 pages left. If you say it quickly it doesn’t seem quite so much […]
