Spring!



Here's a photo of the Lizzie Kate 'Spring' I stitched for my Grandma last year. I finally got to give her 'Winter' & 'Summer' last week & she liked them. I've taken them back and hidden them, so she can't lose them, though! I know what she's like... :-) I plan to stitch Autumn and frame the whole set in time for christmas.

Yesterday I went to my cross stitch meet and stitched a tiny bit more on my 'bras'. I've now finished 4 squares, although I'm still doing some outlining on the 4th. I took it all with me to Gloucester, but didn't do a single stitch all week. Bad!

I did go shopping with Mum and we went up to Shrewsbury so we could look at the QVC outlet shop. She bought us a gorgeous patchwork quilt for our wedding anniversary. I should take a photo of it and post in on here really. It's lovely! Maybe tomorrow...

Another lovely finish - look forward to seeing them all framed. Lucky you, going to a QVC outlet. :0)

Thanks. I'll post pictures when they're all framed.
The QVC outlet was good. There's only 2 in the country-Shrewsbury and Warrington. I've been to both now and I think they're very good. Plenty of craft things in there. It's probably just as well I live a very long way from them, as I'd end up spending a fortune in there!
