Where did the time go!

I can't believe that it's two weeks since my last post! Where did the time go? 
Well I can answer that but I still can't believe it's been two weeks.
I've been decorating and one bedroom turned into the enire upstairs. It's all finished now apart from a bit of tweeking.
So craft room here I come.

I have been doing a little Cross Stitching in the evenings. For the August Christmas Ornie SAL 2015
It needs to be finished by Monday but theres not an awful lot left to do so that's my Bank Holiday sewing project sorted :)
It's a Lizzie Kate design Merry Ho Ho and I've used evenweave to stitch on.
I hope you all have a great weekend.

FNWF

It's a little late, but I've been at Harry Potter World with Lily and Rowan, so I haven't had chance to post.

I mentioned in my last post I've been busy working on my Husiff.
 I got quite a bit done and I'm really pleased with how it's coming along.
 I've still got a fair bit left to do but I'm hoping to have it finished by the weekend.
I just need to bind it and get some silk ribbon.
Everyone one who joined in was so productive. 
Thanks to Cheryll for hosting a great craft night.

It's time again for Cheryll's FNWF. Where she hosts a crafty get together and we stitch/craft the evening away.
I'll be tring to catch up with my Hussif. 
I started it last week when Jenny posted her FREE 5  day tutorial. 

 Here's my progress so far...
 I love the stitcheries they are so cute.
Hoping to see a few of you on Friday Night...

Kimberley's Dishcloth Swap

I was partnered again to my delight with Maria from Dotty's Daughter in a swap hosted by Kimberley
I loved all the extras she popped in. The recipe cards have already been used. I made the Cawl which is a Welsh stew and it was delicious. Mmmmmm
The house she made me was so cute. I loved the roses around the door.
...............
These are the gifts I sent.
Three crochet dishcloths. I love the strawberry one I've made quite a few of those from a free tutorial here.
These are the extras I sent.
I picked the tea towels as they have the cutest birds on even a robin.
