SPRING.

At last Spring days are here , but they say it will get colder first .

We are having some work done on our house ,with hubby home more he is getting allot of jobs done that needed doing.

I love to walk up the garden every day to see what is new .

I always meet one of my friends for coffee every other week . The last time I found some lovely shops and a sewing shop with DMC threads I was over the moon , because most of the sewing shops are now gone . And I have to order on line , so now I will keep my list with me each time I go.

 I am stitching lots of smalls and trying to get more done on my large stitching . It's been a long Winter , and I am happy to see Spring is arriving , we had two lovely days this week so I worked in the garden .   Happy Mothers day to all.

Back to my stitching . I have to start back on my many larger charts .

 

The one above I fell in love with , it's been in my box for years so

now I am back working on it .

                        Sorry about the dark photo  most days are dark.

                    Bark to the garden Spring is back and we have had a                             few nice days . after all the darkness .

                      My eyes are only just getting use to it. 

                                                                         

 Spring is here  at last , but the rain was not so good for the lawns , but the birds have loads of moss for making there nests .

                                    Enjoy your week. 

MARCH

 Well  here I am , back again , not sorted yet with my photos .

Hope to be sorted soon. I am trying all things to get my photos up .

I have not been able to get the battery I need so hoping I can soon

I am using a tiny one I found in the phone It had a little bit of life in it.

I stitched this one below a few days ago  .    So cute .

This week as been very up and down and loads of fog 

You could not breath very well ;

And the car was covered in dirt . 

It could be coming in from the war on the air streams .

                             A display of Spring .
  

 

                                                        
                                         Have fun I really hope I can get myself sorted soon.

Sun is out .

Yes, The sun is out and a little warmer. 

The Spring flowers are coming out , but the garden is so wet .

It's also so dark to stitch some days  , I was hoping to do more stitching this year.

I have been watching the winter sports , I must say it's been fantastic. 

 I have not yet set a yearly plan of stitching this year but I know I must get some of my larger stitching finished , and will be stitching allot of smaller designs to. 

This next design by Kirsten Schmidt , was a lovely design to stitch. 

 

               I brought this tin of Biscuits from the garden shop , after the 

cookies have been eaten I will use it for my needlework items .

Will leave you with some garden photos .

Hoping I can get back to normal soon.

Hoping to be back soon , with more stitching .I am waiting for my 

camera to have a new battery . 

I will leave you with some Lovely flowers that were brought for me   enjoyed a lovely week.

 

I'm Back .

Hi friends , I am back again , PC problems with my pictures all sorted for now . It is still raining but we did have one day of sunshine  . I had to wear sun glasses it was so bright . 

The garden is loving this rain my snowdrops and spring flowers out every where , but to wet to enjoy . 

I  have missed you all and tried to come over to you , but I got so depressed not finding out what was wrong . First we though it was my lead into my PC so I had to buy another one , but no . Then I started to clear all my photos , it said I had over 10, 000 photos WHAT ! we found out the photos had about 10 of the same photos .

No wonder it would not take anymore . Look's like AI are putting my photos now into albums . which is better , but I must get rid of some old ones . 

Just hoping nothing else goes wrong , also  that the time slows down 

and our rain stops . I will try and catch up with you all , but the last few weeks I could not even look at my PC I was so mad with it. 

But all is good now.

Wishing you all a lovely Spring . 

With the darkness It's not been easy to stitch .

So lets show you some photos 

Below two  stitched birthday cards I sent out 

           And two charts were sent to me that I stitched 

Thank you friends .

Ok the garden has loved the rain , here are some of my photos 

    The mimosa has been beautiful , not sure of the spelling and more 

Spring flowers .

                       Have a wonderful week friends.

                                So good to be back .

Rain .

 Hello all ,

Well we have so much rain at the moment , everyday it seems to rain 

But we are lucky it's not snow , this is the 2nd storm in a few days . Just hoping the fence holds out until we can get outside . 

I met a friend this week and we got so wet, I was glad to get home it took ages with the floods , one of my friends homes was flooded , down in the town , hubby came and picked me up and what would take 5mins took about an hour. And it's still raining ! 

I thought I found my photos but no . They have gone missing yet again.

I am sorry it's taking me so long  to sort it out .   I will try again ,  No luck . 

I will have to use a few more old photos until I can get help .

I think the first thing I will do is is start getting rid of some old ones.

So I still  want to keep in touch , but will have to use old photos again for now.

 So sorry about this my friends . I will keep trying to get new photos on here  . 

I do have to many photos and I hate to get rid of them  .

Lets see what happens next time . By then I might get some help.

Have a lovely week, and stay safe in the bad weather.

 

 

January

 Hi, every one  how are we doing , are you sewing away and knitting and other lovely hobbies . My hubby is home more these days , it's wonderful but also hits my time . We now do jobs together and he is enjoying it ,we made a few plans on the garden and house , so we have started decorating the hallway and will have new carpets in the Spring after the bad weather before he goes missing in the garden when the weather gets better. We also go out more . which is lovely . So now I have to change my stitching times but I am getting there .

Also my pc is driving me mad with my photos , I spend loads of time looking for them , they are putting them in albums but to find them at the moment is a nightmare. I really need to sort them out and get some order in how I find them . My pc has now stopped adding my new photos  So can't show you yet my new stitching , so here are a few from years ago until I can get it fixed  . Sorry but hopefully I will get it fixed soon.

 

                                           Sorry about this but until I get some help   

                           I can't show you my new stitching .

                So I will leave you with some flowers photos to brighten 

                        your day , It is  none stop rain here at the moment  .

 

            So I hope the flowers make you feel that Spring will be here                             soon . 

Have a great week and I hope I have some help with my pictures soon, or I will go crazy .

 

JANUARY

Well we are now into January , cold and frosty so we can sit in the warm and stitch  a little bit more . But really it is to cold to do any thing .

We have not had cold weather like this for years .

So it takes time to get use to it.

I have now packed all my Christmas bits away , but it always looks so empty after.

I started a new book and a puzzle , and I am working on more cross stitch .

Before I go back into the garden in the Spring. 

We are really enjoying our time at home after such a busy year.

We had a real bad storm the other night , but I don't think there is much damage , we had a red warning of over 100 winds mph .

One poor man died when a tree fell on his caravan.

I have been having trouble with my pictures so its making me very late showing my photos but here are some beautiful cards I had from my lovely stitching friends . More to show next time .

                      Thank you everyone and a Happy New Year.

 

from Nancy .
