I'm currently cross-stitching the Welsh Flag, which seems to be taken forever (possibly because I spend so much time on here, and stitch late at night ) Should finish it this time next week. Also working on beaded jewellery.

Got a baby gift to stitch next!

So, what are you working on?

A baby blanket similar to the one on my profile for a friend who loved my original one. Just over half way through the squares now. Will have to break off to make halloween costumes soon though (argh why did I have four kids?? Including a very indecisive one who won't make up her mind what to be!?)

After that I have been promising myself a cardigan but I daresay it will get put on hold yet again for something else ... !

I'm still trying to master seed beading which mostly means making stuff and then taking it apart again (argh)
I need to knuckle down & start thinking of some different ideas for my 'usual' beaded jewellery as I have 2 school Xmas fayres that I will probably be asked if I want a stall.

I'm about to make dresses for DD and her cousin - have the same fabric in two colourways, so the main dress is one colour, other bits (pocket, band around the hem etc) in the other, and the other dress the opposite way around. My mum used to do this for my sister and I

Also someone on here recently linked instructions for a fabric carrier bag, which i want to try out.

And have made a start on my share of 500 xmas cards for the PTA.

A wedding sampler for ds2. It's got a ton of beading on, something I'm not very experienced in.

I'm painting some box canvases for the school christmas fair. I painted a couple for my daughters, and friends said I should make them to sell, I may post them to see what you think.

I'm making vintage fabric and linen brooches for craft fair stock and for orders from friends/family. I am also doing lavender sachets and have 3 horses to finish off.

My little birdies finished at last - after sewing one completely inside and back to front as my mum is visiting and kept talking so I was not concentrating.
Had to unpick and start again Grrrrrrr !

Anyway they are here on my blog.

Have a lovely day all.

Have just finshed knitting a wooly hat for ds. Then knitted small orange mouse for ds too!

Am about to embark upon either a felted stachel for my sister or a shrug for my SIL (both christmas presents).

Must also bear inmind need for a reindeer costumr for DS christmas song concert (Nursery suggested trying Woolies! )
