Quick update

In the end, last week, I opted for a new start. Witches Riding By from Lavender Wings. The chart was a Christmas present from 'The Other Half'. I'm stitching this on 36 ct sand linen as recommended. This is about three nights worth of stitching.


Over the weekend my Christmas Ornament, UFO and handbag project all had a little bit of work done on them, but not enough to show. The main achievement on Saturday was finishing the three Secret Needle Night pieces into cushions.


This week it's house number 6 on White Nights. The weather here is great at the moment and I feel I should be spending the evenings sitting in the garden, enjoying the Sun, with a G&T or glass of chilled white wine to hand, rather than being inside with a large stitching project.

Hope everyone has a great stitching week whatever the weather is doing where you are.
