After I saw the lovely thread drops that Deb had in her stash sale (here) I decided to play around with my craft punches and make some thread drops like hers and I then thought that some personalized ones would be nice so this is what I came up with. I can change the wording and the colour too. Neat eh? I think they might be nice extras for my future exchange packages too but, of course, with my partner's name on instead of mine.

I haven't done much stitching this past few days although I did finish stitching my piece for Jayne's Attic Monthly Stitching Challenge. I have decided how to finish but need to find some co-ordinating fabric. I might start a Christmas ornament later today. 

I am in a bit of pain as I did something to my back a couple of days ago. I hope it will clear up soon.

Short and sweet today.

Thanks for visiting

Take care

I have had a couple of finishes this week. The first is for Jayne's Attic Redwork Exchange so I am unable to show a picture as yet but I can say I am going to find it extremely hard to part with! I have also partly stitched the Monthly Stitching Challenge for JA and I am trying to decide whether to carry on and complete the whole piece with the one colour or stitch the corner piece in different colours so it stands out. Watch this space - reveal day is August 30.  

The second finish is a scissor fob for the Monthly Finishing Challenge for August. This is a really tiny fob as I stitched one over one on the same raw linen that I used for the scissor pocket and it was not very easy to finish but I got there. I'm sorry about the poor photos but the light is really bad here today - I think the summer may have passed if the past few days are anything to go by!
