Half way through March already!!

 I really don't know just where the time is going...

...and this little piece should have been done 'n' dusted last month...

...but...

...it's done now...

...and that makes THREE in the Little House series :-)

I am so enjoying the small finishes (even if they take a while longer than I thought originally)...

...but with all the treatment going on, there are days when I just cannot do anything except sleep.

I have pulled out the next chart..... "The Clock Shop".....

....and will make a beginning on the snow this weekend. :-)

I think that my next post might contain a bit more than cross stitch as I've been clacking knitting pins too. Nothing too big....just some cosy hand-warmers in lovely wool yarns.

Hope you are all keeping safe and well.

New Year......what will it bring?

 I know some of you will have been picking up bits and pieces from my Facebook page...

...so I won't be going into details here.

Enough to say that 2022 is going to be a "challenging" year...

...in so many ways...

...but I have to try to keep myself both occupied and positive.

Nothing too difficult...or large....

...just small little pieces of counted work for now.

Ones that bring a smile to my face...

.....gladness to my heart...

...and a sense of achievement when each one is finished.

Small steps.....

Here is the first one of January 2022...

..."The Bookstore" from Little House Needleworks.

Those of you that know me better than others ...

...will know how I love my books!!

Can't drum up the energy to visit Hay on Wye just yet...

...so this little shop will do instead :-D

Thanks to all of you who have supported me on FB these last few weeks.

I will be glad to have you around for the bumpy ride ahead!

2021 week #5 ~ Needlework and The Great Garden Birdwatch

 Well...

...here we are at the final weekend of January already!

Still under "lockdown" restrictions.....and for another three weeks at least...

...but still managing to keep as positive as possible...

...and carrying on creating :-)

I have finished quite a few bits this last week...

...one lovely little piece by Little House Needleworks...

...entitled "One More Stitch"...

...and I must admit to have developed a bit of a "thing" for these Biscornu :-o

Stash-busting continues...

...with a pair of knitted hand-warmers.

I have never counted myself as a "knitter" but this pattern is soooooo easy...

...that even I can do it!!

Out of doors...

...this weekend is the RSPB Great Garden Birdwatch...

...so I am......watching.

I do so love my little feathery garden visitors.

Please...

....as ever....

...keep safe and well folks.
