A very quick post.
Firstly, a big thank you to the 6 lovely people
that left me messages on my last post.
As I explained, my lack of posting is due to the
very busy time for Craft Fairs for me.
I have now completed 23 Fairs and only 5 more to do!!
Most of them have been very busy and I have sold a lot
of my makes. Great for my charity but late nights for me!!
I have now sold 29 of my baubles!! Crazy!!
This Mr & Mrs Snow sold on it's first outing.
I have made another one for my next fairs this weekend.
I did also mention on a post that I was doing a cross stitch
Advent Calendar. I have finished it now and will be
posted to my Grandson shortly.
I haven't used Aida for many years, as
I prefer the finish that linen gives.
I had finished all the cross stitch but I then had to find
time to sew it all together and also attach it to
a piece of card for the backing.
Well back to my desk to finish a little project.
Thank you for visiting and will catch up with you shortly.
Big hugs,
Carol.

That snowmen dec is fabulous. Great cross stitching too. I am only just back into cross stitching so not sure I could cope with trying to do it on linen yet
I absolutely love seeing what you have been up to and these are wonderful Carol. The snow couple are adorable but the star is that magnificent advent calendar, what a fabulous heirloom piece, every stitch done with love. What a lucky chap your Grandson is xx
Mr. & Mrs. Snow are so sweet. Pleased you have been doing well with your fairs and that advent calendar is a wonderful gift for your grandson. I'm the same as you, I prefer evenweave linen, but sometimes with little things Aida does the job perfectly x
Mr & Mrs Snow are FABulous Carol, so cute and I love your cross stitch advent calendar..keep crafting, take it easy and hopefully you can get ahead in the Summer ready for next year..
Luv CHRISSYxx
