i'm almost ready to send mine

I have (nearly) finished mine, just need to weave in ends

Just checking in. Nearly done. Is it ok that it's just one thing?

I don't see why not. It's still something handmade by soemone else.

good grief, i've only done one thing!! how many are others sending?

I have one definate, and one possible, and a third I keep having second thoughts over...

Ok, mine will be sent by Friday or Saturday. Apologies for the delay but should get there in time for Christmas!

Mine is nearly done, will be finished by tomorrow. Was supposed to be done today but had one of those days. Jack my email went a bit pete tong but will go and try and reply again now.

It's here!

Can I open it? Can I open it? Can I? Can I?

Have finally finished my swap thingy. Will post it tomorrow.

Just the rest of the pile to finish now...

Doesn't sound like a poodle.

Just checking in on the thread! You should open it before Christmas, it is not a poodle, but I'm hoping you like it!

Santa, you are wonderful. Some absolutely gorgeous decs for my tree. We're putting the tree up tomorrow so it's fantastic timing.

You are very clever

i have just carefully and irreversibly ironed interfacing to the ironing board.

Twice.

Arse.

Per, have done exactly the same thing today. Got some on the iron too and it will not shift. Serves me right for taking short cuts.

Tis the only time you normally see me at the ironing board mind

at per

Have just finished mine. So late but will get it in post tomorrow so it should arrive on time. Also found the original stuff I did (and then lost) so I will send it all on.

I reeeeaaally want to keep it!

Now have to finish presents for teachers, and parcel for my best mate, only she may have to wait for her main present. Have made her some of the teachers chocolate covered candied orange peel and a crochet emo doll. Which is very disturbing

Phew mine is finished and I'm just going to post it now. Hope it's ok!

Wow! Just Wow! We got a fab parcel just now! I know it was you! (probably cos I did the picks...)
Girls have fabric crowns, DD1's is blue, which is her favourite colour, and sprakly, which is great, as most blue things aren't glittery as well. DD2's is deep red which goes great with her hair, and I havea blue fabric notepade cover with matching fabric covered pen, and pockets in the cover. It is gorgeous!

Posted my stuff off today as well, so sorry it'sd late but it should be there soon...

Sounds fab, Jack

Finally - it's posted.

I was so pleased with myself at having posted the parcel vaguely on time, that I forgot to check back on the thread to see if it had been received!

Anyway, glad you like it Jack! I must admit, I was tempted to keep the notebook myself - you narrowly missed a last minute poodle-substitution...

PerArdua - not only did I get interfacing over both ironing board and iron, but I also didn't notice that my husband had been ironing shirts on the highest setting, and managed to melt polyester all over the iron as well... ironing at top setting onto brown paper will remove it.

Mine is all wrapped up and will be sent tomorrow. Apologies for the delay.
