Link: 5 blog awards and stitching news
Hi everyone, I hope you are all well, it has been a while since my last post as I have been quite busy lately.
I was very pleased to receive five blog awards,  thankyou so much ladies I really appreciate them.

I received this one from Theresa at Giraffexing and Dawn at Goldenangelworks

and this one from

Carol at  Carols blog ,Adriana at Randa home made lace and Patti at Tapestry of Dreams

These are the rules:

  1. Accept the award.
  2. Thank the person who gave you the award.
  3. Add a link to the person who gave you the award.
  4. Paste the award on your blog.
  5. Write ten things about yourself that others might not know.
  6. Pass the award on to ten other people.
Ten things you may not know about me.
  1. I am 50 this Friday! Aghhhhh!
  2. It is our 26th wedding anniversay this Wednesday. (31st March)
  3. I used to eat chocolate and bread quite regularly, when I was younger it never made any difference to my weight, now it does so I don't eat them very often, however, I have the occasional treat on a Sunday evening.  
  4. I prefer winter and spring because summer triggers my hayfever and I hate it! 
  5. I am impatient, I want everything done yesterday!
  6. I have a law degree and a Masters degree in employment law, I never tire of reading my law books and keeping upto date on the subject.
  7. I graduated with my law degree when I was 40 - its never too late!
  8. I love reading about Queen Victoria.
  9. I love watching period dramas. 
  10. I am really scared of wasps and bees.  
 I am now going to pass these awards on to everyone because I think everyone deserves them, and the other reason for not choosing ten blogs is basically I have not time to do it as I am going away tomorrow for a couple of days!


Stitching News

Jane sent me this lovely mail art gift to me, it was a total surprise!  

It was full of these lovely threads and a threadwinder, thankyou Jane I shall treasure this!   
I have started stitching this Country Cottage Needlework design that my son bought 
me for Mothers Day. 
Here are some close up pictures.




I have just one more photo to show of a biscornu that my friend Connie has made, but I will show that in my next post.

I am going away for a couple of days to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary and my 50th birthday, I am quite looking forward to the celebrations, we are going to one of  my favourite parts of the country - Bath.
We are having lunch at the Pump Rooms in Bath where Jane Austen used to visit quite regularly, I will update you on my return, and hopefully I will have some nice photographs to show you all.  

Happy stitching everyone!
