How quick!!

Wow!! I dont think I've ever finished anything so quick!!! (well apart from some little beads) oh and the little task of turning it into something - so many things to choose from though!! Here is my finished stitching:



Tah Dah!!Quite pleased with it although I dont think its perfect for a first attempt its ok.

Ooh just to let you know Jack and his year arrived safely in France and from the few photos on the school website they have had good weather and there seemed to be lots of smiley faces - although I cant spot Jack on any of them :-( , the school have a policy of no phone contact while they are away so we are assuming no news is good news as the info seems a bit less than I had hoped for - pah! no pleasing some parents lol!!

Thanks for looking

Ali

    Your X stitch is fabulous, very pretty and the fabric looks as if it would be hard to work with. You could just frame it. Glad your son got to France OK I bet he's having a great time. x

    Hi Ali - I've just added a little extra info on to the end of my posting and hope it will help.

    Basically half a cup is 115g butter (4 oz) and I use this link as a guide :: http://www.hintsandthings.com/kitchen/weights.htm

    Hope that helps? And I love your embroidery.

    So have we!!!!!!! and the Lasagne wans't lasagne after all. I had taken it out of the box so cartons all looked the same view from down a wine bottle. It was Mousaka. Just stopped The Doc from putting Parmesan cheese on top in time.
    (I can't take him anywhere.) Hugs Mrs A.

    Your cross stitch is beautifully done - it is hard to switch from Aida at first but soon you get used to it and make something really lovely like this!
