Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all my friendly Bloggers!  We celebrated quietly here - just immediate family sat at home, watching the TV with a few drinks...  We spend the evening reminiscing over the last year, and thinking about what will have been achieved this time next year...  I definitely don't do resolutions, as they are usually made in haste, and are too easily broken.  Yes, I would like to lose weight and get fit again, so I can go on my rambles again, but that is a long term thing, and not something that I am only going to start today!

I've been stitching on one of my UFOs over the last couple of days.  Chorus Line (Heritage) is a cute design, and I found out why it had become a UFO... I had to unstitch most of the unfinished chick almost straight away, as I had gone wrong at some point, putting most of the other stitching out of line.  My husband likes to say that I should just work around the mistake, but I can't stand it and have to unpick the stitches...  Anyway, I have now got 3 finished chicks, and have started on the fourth:


I hope you all have good health, wealth and happiness throughout 2011!

Happy Stitching...

Oh, I love this piece and you don't have far to go! I find it almost impossible to leave mistakes too. It drives me crazy to know they are there!

Best wishes in the New Year, Lynn!
