So its been a while

Sorry I've been away for so long, I've moved twice since i was last here and started my own little hand knit selling page on facebook that is taking up a lot of my time. :)

Its going well and we've even had a few orders so far, so i thought id share my page here and keep a record of the things I'm knitting as I'm knitting them.

Work and order in progress

 I have to say that so far these are my favourite!

Oh and did i mention i got engaged to my MR on my birthday this year so you'll all see a few post about that as the planning starts :)

Well this is were you can find me if you fancy a nosey

New Project

Izzy's new hair band completely hand made, this is what I've been up to the last month sewing all those tiny petals together. I'm now working on some hair clips and maybe some matching skirts if i can do one! going to have a go anyway!

A new year but no new beginning...

By the sound of my title you would think i was unhappy and stuck it a rut but i assure you I'm not, quite the opposite actually. I'm looking forward to this year but not because things are going to change, i don't wish that at all!. I have a wonderful daughter who never fails to make me smile, Her daddy may not be perfect but neither am i and if he changed he wouldn't be the man i fell in love with. my family is close and supportive and i really couldn't think of one thing i would change.
So this year i think im going to wish that nothing changes and that i can say the same next year and the year after :)

Hope you all have a great 2012

All my love

Other Stich happy relatives :)

Now for days I've been complaining to my partner about the post and how most of the stuff I've ordered for Christmas has not come but this morning i got a lovely surprise as all my parcels came, plus one i didn't know about so imagine my smile when i pulled this from the packet!

This is Izzy's first stocking and i must say i love it! Her great Nannie, the woman who spent many hours teaching me to stitch after my mother laid the foundations, made this for her and may i just say that i have never met anyone faster or as perfect at stitching as my Nannie (although sally does give her a run for her money!)



Take care

Sneak Peek!

Well its been quiet around here of late with all Christmas shopping, baby demands and stitching, yes i have managed to fit that in some how!

Here is a little sneak peek at what I've been doing lately whilst neglecting my BF, he shouldn't mind though as it is for him.

I'm hoping to have this finished by the end of next week so i can concentrate on my table runner for Christmas day, we'll see how it works out.
