It's been a while

Things seemed to have gotten a little out of hand here recently with ferrying the kids here there and everywhere. Stace is struggling to get to and from college so we are doing all we can to help her out. Richard has had his interview for going into 6th form college in September. The teacher was great and Richards results from his mock exams were fantastic with a distinction in I.C.T. A* in business studies and then the rest were all B's and C's and he needs 5 G.C.S.E's at a level C or above. The teacher was so pleased Richard was offered a place subject to his main exams starting in June.

Stitching wise Ivy is coming along lovely even though I haven't worked on her in a week as last weekend I decided to have a go at stitching a 15 sided biscornu which has now been stitched and has stitched up beautifully. It is going to a new home soon to sarahsparkles.

Today I am going to start a bookmark for an exchange on another forum, I will add photos when there is something to show for it.

It is a lovely bright sunny day but still chilly, dare we hope that spring is really on its way??? The spring bulbs are starting to grow and bloom, the hedges are starting to bud and the wildlife are starting their spring nest building, all good signs I hope?

A week ago I was asked to join another yahoo group ESC (every stitch counts) and I must say that I have been made to feel very welcome indeed, now I need to get my group back up and moving as it has slowed down somewhat.

Have a good weekend and happy stitching xx
