So Many Sweet(?) Dreams.........

It might well read 'Happy Christmas' on this little ornament finish, but I am certainly not feeling the least bit Christmassy!!
I finished this a couple of weekends ago and rather enjoyed stitching it. But, I haven't even had time to think about picking up a needle since......
A week today, our daughter will be married. I am so happy for her and her lovely husband-to-be! I am also very tired!! Even our poor cat, Freddie in the picture above is tired - though what he does all day apart from sleep is anyone's guess.......
The cake(s) are made - but they need to be iced, and trying to find just what I need in shops locally is a nightmare. I'm sure it will be all ok - after all, we love it when a plan comes together, don't we?!!

It's just that I'm dreaming of wedding cake - and icing - and not in a good way.......!

I keep trying to convince myself of the long and lovely stitching afternoons ahead next week, when there won't be a wedding cake in sight.......

We can all dream, can't we?

Have a lovely week (with or without cake.......)

Back soon..............

Sampler Blues

This is just a little finish that I've had framed - sorry about the awful photo quality......
It is a pretty little sampler design by Jane Greenoff, that appeared in a very old copy of a needlework magazine quite a few years ago now. When I finally got round to stitching it, it didn't take long at all - in fact it took me longer to get it framed.......
It hangs now in our upstairs bathroom, and I'm really pleased with the way it's turned out - don't you just love blue and white combinations..........

There hasn't been any time for stitching of any kind, these past two or three weeks. Our lovely daughter is to be married on the 25th of this month, so it is all systems go here at the moment....
I have made the rich fruit wedding cake, which is being iced and decorated almost as I write! The is to be a sponge cake, too, to be made nearer the day, for the guests who don't like fruit cake.....
Then there are all the other thousand-and-one things to think of - and do........
Not forgetting the 'little surprise' I have planned for the bride - if time can br found........
Yes, it has been a rather busy month that us about to get even busier............
And I miss my stitching...........
Happy Week to you all........
Back soon..........
