I hope anyone who was affected by the Storm on the East Coast has made it through ok, I saw some live pictures and it looked terrible - all it takes here is a couple CM of snow for all hell to break loose!
Also, I hoped everyone enjoyed Halloween - its not really a big deal for me, I guess its because by the time I get home from work all the kids have been and I miss them all. Ah well.
Stitching wise I worked some more on the Sweet Treats SAL - I managed to get both legs and his body done. hopefully by the end of the weekend he won't be headless!
No reason why, other than to make me smile - which is certainly did! I commented a while back how cute these were and she must of remembered. It even got a smile out of the other half who normally just rolls his eyes at anything crafty!
So I just want to say Thea and Nia - Thank you!!
I also sent off my mystery Giveaway to McKenna but silly me forgot to take a photo of it...only realising once I had sealed the envelope...ha! Once I know the gift has been received then I will enlighten the rest of you (and hopefully McKenna will take a photo!)
I will update again at the end of the weekend. I hope you all have a great one :)

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad my package arrived safely! And happy to know that I gave you a smile :D
I had my package ready to post for a while, I had so many things to post that I decided to gather everything and make only one 'trip' to the post office ;) eheheh that's why I didn't send earlier :) But I think this way was even better, for sure you weren't expecting anything and probably didn't even remeber that I asked for your adress ;) ehehhhe
Hugs to you sweetie!!! :D
