Some finishes lately

I sitched this one on a lighter aida fabric as i can't get this dark one here. I am not sure yet how am i going to finish this one.



Two sachets which i filled in with lavendels. Quite quick finishes.



Finished the backstitching of this one and ready for posting this week. I wonder what i will get next. This is a rr with 9 people and i don't know anymore which theme is the next. I have the list somewhere, atleast we have six weeks to stitch the piece.

Last weekend went well with Chris so we let him go to school yesterday and to his chess club that evening. This morning, he was coughing and it doesný sound good so we didn't let him go to school, instead we call the doctor and appointment was scheduled this afternoon. I am at work then so dh took him to the doctor. Glad it was not that bad as we had expected, just lots of phlegm so we have to give him cough syrup for the coming days.
Here's a quick finished last weekend. A san man freebie design.

.........and here's what i have to finish before the weekend. It's a rr and should have to be mailed on the first of may. The 'x'are all done, just the back stitching to be done, not much actually but it does needed quite some time for it.

A bit update from here....

Our youngest son is sick again, well a couple of weeks ago he has chicken pox. Since wednesday late afternoon he has been playing outside with his friends, it was then very windy and cold, suddenly he came home crying and said his head is painful. We thought he had fallen off or something but he said not at all. I settled him on the couch and after half an hour he's so warm. We took his temperature and it was quite high(38.9) so we gave him medicine. The next morning(yesterday), he seems fine and much as he want to go to school we didn't let him. In the afternoon his temperature is high again.
This morning when he woke up he's fine and played with Raymon, the little boy i take care on friday mornings, after lunch he slept on the couch for about half an hour. An hour after he woke up he's temperature is high again so we are now puzzeled why. If it goes on this weekend, we are going to take him to the doctor.

Well, hope everyone have a nice weekend.

Q. Do you do obligation or deadline-based stitching? Why or why not? If you do, do you tend to get in over your head and why?

Yes i do, with round robins, exchanges especially for birthday cards each month; cards that must stitched, blocks and other items. For some, i really try to finished way ahead of time, like birthday cards & gifts. For the round robins, actually the same when i received one i try to find the right pattern to stitched if it is not included and make a start.

Q. For those of you that stitch while riding in the car or on the train, how do you cope with the bumps and the motion? Do you have any tips for others?

I did try stitching in the car while dh's driving but it didn't really work out, but with hardanger i had done it before that is when it's the basic ones and not too complicated.
As i remember the last time i travel with the train is two years ago, yes i did stitched and it went fine, so with that it is fine, just don't travel with the train often.

Had to work unexpectedly....

We were at my MIL's place for coffee at around midday when DH's mobile rang, he taught oooooppppps, he's needed somewhere but it was my boss asking if i can help out for the evening and i said sure. So i went in at around six and wow! it was really busy in the restaurant. Not really all tourist but lots are also from the island who just want out for dinner. Oh well, we did yesterday too!!! Some was susrprised to see me as lots know i don't work during weekend anymore. It was great though to work with a couple of colleagues i don't normally work with. I can say they are happy to see me and i am glad to hear that off course.



Well, i finished this one up last night. My x'mas april sal for one of the yahoo group. This is from JCS ornaments 2004. I have quite some finishes for christmas ornaments and still till now i haven't made one up. Hopefully sooooooooooooooooooooon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, off for me to bed as i have to work again tomorrow and much as i want to sleep in i think the kids will wake us up very early.

Thanks so much for leaving comments on my blog. I really appreciate them. Sorry, can't visit any blog tonight, hope later this week.

A quick finished!

We went out for dinner and just came back. I am glad we had booked it earlier this week as it's really too busy. We arrived at six, quite early actually and all the tables are reserved! This is our first time to this restaurant, it's a sort of buffet restaurant where you picked or chose the things you want and then bring it to the counter and they'll cook it for you. Lots of choices, different meat cut into pieces and marinated, same as with fishes and vegetables. Really a lot i haven't taste them all. We like it and Grace too but Chris haven't tried any except some fried potatoes. Looking at the pics taken...our shirts are all kind of blue colours!






Here's a quick finished for me this week, a hardanger pin cushion. It's for a friends birthday next week. She lives here too on the island and does cross stitch but not so much as i do.
