Hello all, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its been just over a month since my last post and it has flown by.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank You all so much for your lovely comments and best wishes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Noah is now at home and doing great.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He's now nearly 5.5lb and feeding like a good'en. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not hardly stitched at all but now getting back into the swing of things now that everything is settling down and no more running backwards and forwards to the hospital.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While no stitching was being done i did treat myself to some goodies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj962ewODl_p5MDuE-D6USIJS3oH1zXd19UJTw9yDL_KgVdjQ3GXM4AxFTDvGdFUew62kkN3AOUa6GUh9PQE4Ku3-82xi3TT4M1h-ZwpjIW-S-HRGYuLgQXJEZ4AiA72zQBm2evLS2xiDY/s1600/2014-05-01+14.01.43.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj962ewODl_p5MDuE-D6USIJS3oH1zXd19UJTw9yDL_KgVdjQ3GXM4AxFTDvGdFUew62kkN3AOUa6GUh9PQE4Ku3-82xi3TT4M1h-ZwpjIW-S-HRGYuLgQXJEZ4AiA72zQBm2evLS2xiDY/s1600/2014-05-01+14.01.43.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then i got my act together and finally made a little something with the Eiffel Tower that i made for DD a couple of years ago. I'm a great one for sewing things and then putting them away to get framed and then leaving them, thinking i will give it a go at framing them myself.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wanted to finish it off with some Navy ribbon to make a little hanger but has usual everything but that colour.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just has well DD liked it just the way it was. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We still have the crib we had for his dad and Auntie.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has a skirt that goes round the outside put is more trouble than its worth, always falling down. ; )</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He has a nice set of wheels.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He sleeps in this better than in the crib. Maybe because it tips up slightly like the incubator he was in.</div>

Hello folks, hope you are all keeping well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Had a nice surprise. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sister-in-law and her daughter flew over for the Paddy weekend. We had a great time catching up and other stuff. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its times like these that i wish i knew they were coming and would have got stuck in with Miracles sooner and she might have been able to take it home with her. ; )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But i have kept my promise to myself to keep going with Miracles and try and get it finished for her Birthday. ; )<br />
<br />
So for the Hermit Weekend i finished off the left panel.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTFwnTl4qlJyO4ienZJP0thPEbCK8WSn4DNK_UYOhoSq5zvkub72VeeKHSrDPWn32xgNhtnWj9Qe9J0uEcOCz-W3F6Lki3sbwjODGNrsi2oJwMhsX97Sp77IMYgdHgo8WH5cR_RK-hcUg/s1600/2014-03-22+16.01.17.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTFwnTl4qlJyO4ienZJP0thPEbCK8WSn4DNK_UYOhoSq5zvkub72VeeKHSrDPWn32xgNhtnWj9Qe9J0uEcOCz-W3F6Lki3sbwjODGNrsi2oJwMhsX97Sp77IMYgdHgo8WH5cR_RK-hcUg/s1600/2014-03-22+16.01.17.jpg" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was only when finishing the panel that i could make out what it was i was sewing, has the colours were all just a blend of blues and the photo of it on the kit i could only make out the house.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And for being good finishing off the above i started the final part of Nathalie's sal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's so nice to be using colourful threads after so many blues.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Love the out line of the flower on the side of the house.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm going to finish off the house then its back to Miracles. : (</div>

Hello all, thank you for all your nice comments. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Funny how some of us from all different parts of the world enjoy not just cross stitch but the same kind of books. Kate Moreton seems to be very popular. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
DD was home for a short time while looking for a new home. Now her and Lady are on the move. When we lost Jake i said no more dogs were coming in the house, so my sister-in-law got me this metal dog. Has you can see Lady was never to sure of it.<br />

I have all of Kate Morton's books and really enjoyed her first book 'The Forgotten Garden'. Not a fan of Richard Madeley but his book looks like a good read.<br />

Hello all,i have finished the last square of the french sal.<br />
I have really enjoyed doing this one, it made a nice change to stitch mainly with one colour.<br />
I hope Maryse designs another one for next year.If not i still have the 2112 design to do.<br />
This is one is done for my daughter Laura has part of her 21st Birthday pressie in November.<br />
She just adores anything french and loves the Eiffel Tower.<br />
The colours of the fabric and thread which is a nice deep colour does not show how nice they are in the photo,but they are 3740 Dark Antique Violet and 3042 Light Antique Violet sewn on Jobelan Fabric.<br />
<br />

Hello all, thanks for all your nice comments.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have always been in awe of people who can just sit at a sewing machine and whip up something wonderful and creative. I on the other hand sit at the machine and end up getting myself in a right state. Me and those bobbins just never got on. Then for Christmas hubby bought me this Singer sewing machine. (Old one was a Knitmaster and no manual ) . This one came with a manual and without all the bells and whistles. Just plain and easy. But in the cupboard it stayed only seeing the light of day to do a bit of zig zagging around a piece of linen etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So at the weekend, i got it into my head i was going to make a small purse with a zip. Remember now, this is me who cannot get on with a bobbin let a lone put a zip in. So off i went into You Tube world and with the help of iheartstring and The CraftyGemini i came up with this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so proud of this. I even got the zip done first go. And yes the zip opens and closes no problem. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The zip corners i need to work on, but i'm happy. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

With the initial square there's suppose to be a border around it but being that i used my own initials the border would have looked to much so i settled with this little pattern from the original border.<br />
<br />
And this morning i picked a load of these. My very own home grown peas. : ) . I used to hate sitting there opening these, but now i find myself quite liking it. I must be getting old or need to get out more. ; )<br />

This is a rare one of big sis Mollie laying still.<br />
<br />
<b>This is where i blame the sis-in-law</b> <b>: )</b><br />
<br />
On the sewing front i have been good and not started anything new. I've got 3 wips on the go and was aiming to finish one, do a page of Trixie and more on George. Then in this mornings post i get this from my sis-in-law. Can i sew this for her.<br />

<br />
Has you can see it didn't take me long to think about it.<br />
<br />
Nearly had a fit though when i saw the colours. I thought it was one of those kits where they stick all the colours in the holes for you to sort out yourself. But turns out they were already sorted and i just had to put the symbols next to each colour. Phew, that was a big relief : ) , and i changed the Aida to 28ct Brittney.The colours are nice and only noticed later written very small in the corner that its a Joan Ellliott design.<br />
So now i will be at this until its finished or she will never get it.. : )<br />
<br />
Well, that's it from me<br />

Hello all, Monday night was so warm we took the short drive to Salthill for some sea air<span style="color: #e06666;">. </span>And there docked at sea was the cruise ship called <a href="http://aboardtheworld.com/reside/gallery/57"><span style="color: #e06666;">'The World ' Residences At Sea</span></a><span style="color: #e06666;"> </span> . Its said to be one of the most luxurious ships in the world. Plenty of people apparently knew it was coming has they all had their cameras, telephoto lens, tri pod stands and binoculars.<br />
Me, just my phone. : )<br />
So that's why my photos are not that clever.<br />

Hello all, no blogging or sewing at all for the month of June. We have had a busy month of doing work outside of the house while the weather has been dry plus we have had family over from the UK. : )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hubby's brother and family came for a week, and being that it was his birthday that week and he brought the sun with him we had a nice bbq with friends and family.<br />
This was followed by Hubby finally getting his Gastric Sleeve done. Everything went so well he was home the next day. : )<br />
Then my Aunt and family came for a week to surprise my dad who was 80.<br />
<br />
So i totally missed Junes <a href="http://itsdaffycat.blogspot.ie/2012/12/the-totally-useless-stitch-long-2013.html"><span style="color: #e06666;">TUSAL at Daffy Cats Blog</span></a><br />
<br />
So now its July and i'm having to play catch up with the French Sal. I have now completed sq 6.<br />
<br />

As you can tell i have been sitting out in the garden. Making the most of the sun and the heat.<br />
It's hot hot hot here at the moment, and here's the proof from yesterday. It says partly sunny and cloud but there wasn't a cloud to be seen just blue skies and sun.<br />

For the next square there's a letter in the centre and a pattern border . DD didn't like the original letter ( it is for her after all , ) so i came up with this . Will wait till the finish to see what kind of a border if at all to put around it has it is quite large , or maybe a little something in each corner . </div>

My Hermit weekend didn't quite go has planned has not much stitching got done if at all on Saturday. Sunday was a beautiful day so we made the most of it and spent the day outside tiding up the garden and yard. Felt good to be doing something outside for a change, though my body thought other wise the next day. ; )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Come the evening i got started on Margaret Sherrys Cow.She looks like a Maisie to me. :) Thought i would get it finished that night but alas no, but i did finally finish it on yesterday. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really like how she turned out. Will definitely be doing more of her designs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope to make her into something shortly. :)</div>
