Holly & Hearts Part One - Finished!

Good evening everyone

I hope you are all ok, I would just like to say first thank you for all your supportive messages on my last post. It has been a busy week so I haven't had the opportunity to thank each comment personally but they are appreciated.

We made the journey to Scotland Thursday night and the funeral was on Friday, there were lots of tears at the service but afterwards the family stayed together and shared stories from their childhood about her and her siblings, lots of laughs which is what she would have wanted. We made the journey back yesterday and arrived home in the evening, both very tired.

Today was the first chance I had to stitch but luckily I managed to finish part one of the SAL. Hooray!

Part one - Done!
So now it will go away until part two arrives, which means I can work on something else in the mean time, at the moment I'm not sure what that will be, but I'm sure I will be back soon with another update for you!

Tiki and Linda I will get your prizes in the mail this week, Pull the other Thread I don't have your address yet, so if you get it emailed to me then I will pop yours in the post as well.

Hope you all have a great week ahead

IHSW Roundup and Knitting Book Winners!

Good evening everyone!

I hope you all had a pleasant weekend and everyone taking part in IHSW had a productive weekend.

I was very organised this time I even remembered to take photos before the weekend started, I worked on the new Lizzie*Kate Mystery Sampler Holly and Hearts.

I literally did nothing this weekend other than stitch and have a Breaking Bad marathon (Just finished season four - oh my god!)

So lets get straight to it with the pictures...

Thursday Night before IHSW

Friday Night Progress

Saturday Progress

Sunday!

Hopefully I will have part one of the Mystery Sampler done in the next day or so, this has been such a joy to stitch and I am already looking forward to part two arriving in the mail next month :)

You may remember a couple of posts ago I offered these three pattern books to anyone who would want them as I already had one myself.


As luck would have it I have three books and three people asked for one! So Linda, Pull The Other Thread and Tiki please email me (itzycraftcorner@hotmail.co.uk) with your address and I will get them in the post to you asap.

We had some sad news on Saturday, David's Grandma passed away after weeks of going in and out of hospital, although it wasn't a huge shock it was still very sad.

I hope you all have a great week ahead!
