LOL<br /><br />I can't wait to see that finished so I will keep on reminding you until it's done. Ha,ha!<br /><br />Love those flowers Toni, you really have made them so pretty. <br />Love the colours for the shawls, but I like the last colour combo best, it's gorgeous!!<br />Was just wondering though, is it a different type of yarn to the ones you showed before? They just look different, so I was wondering.<br /><br />Anyhow, all very beautiful and so now I'm just sitting waiting for updates on these lovely projects.<br /><br />:)<br />x xKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06112258191650629526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596171131751265636.post-25251342351666954532011-03-25T19:05:20.633+08:002011-03-25T19:05:20.633+08:00There is nothing wrong with being close to the sto...There is nothing wrong with being close to the stores!

This makes for a neater stitch that shows up and won't get hidden by the crosses.<br />The threads look gorgeous, and well done on the crochet hooks!Ana Luisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17339010894550029361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596171131751265636.post-87274133794827858722011-03-22T21:34:05.277+08:002011-03-22T21:34:05.277+08:00I feel the same about backstitching, I find it rea...I feel the same about backstitching, I find it really hard to motivate myself to do it but I just keep in mind how it adds to the overall design. I am in awe of the crochet, I would love to have a go at it one day!StitchyDonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02035320942026010765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596171131751265636.post-60185115761276326762011-03-22T20:08:00.800+08:002011-03-22T20:08:00.800+08:00Yes another here who shares your pain of backstitc...Yes another here who shares your pain of backstitching.. i'm the opposite though, I tend to try and do it too quickly.. I need to wait until I've done the crosses lol. Love your little flowers.. those types of flowers are pretty popular in scrapbooking now! :)Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11287928771036998300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596171131751265636.post-33862587678598249962011-03-22T19:30:38.264+08:002011-03-22T19:30:38.264+08:00Morning Lake looks wonderful!

Something like I'll finish this corner today and after that I can stitch/crochet/whatever you desire. That way it doesn't feel like an enourmous task and your beautiful WIP won't turn an UFO. <br /><br />Your crochet threads are amazing! *drools* I wish we had something like that here.Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546463523766188519noreply@blogger.com
