A LITTLE ENTHUSIASM

 

Finally, a little enthusiasm has returned. I am stitching Jennifer's ( www.elefantz.com) recent free design. 




I haven't been reading as much either but I have finished this book which was a Christmas gift. It is Miriam's 2nd book, ( the 1st was also a gift to me), and the title is so apt!! She is a shocker! 



It is another warm day today...at last! Summer is nearly officially over yet it has barely begun here. I shall not complain after hearing about W.A' s 49.5 degrees yesterday. I suspect we shall have a hot Easter but who knows what mother nature has planned. 


Keep well, keep smiling and enjoy some crafty fun.

I have been very slowly tidying up my sewing room and I am still deciding which UFO quilt to do next . Meanwhile, I have an unfinished decades old crosstitch to pick up again.
