I have just realised that I have not posted pictures of the little valentine exchange that I sent. I stitched Shepherds Bush Watercolour Heart. I put beads on the front and stitched the same design, minus the beads, on the back, along with our initials and the year..........

It seems to have been a long winter this year and I am always so excited to see the snowdrops in my garden. I took a photo of them a week or so back and here is a photo of them, in all their glory - they make me smile!

My good friend and stitching buddy Carol and I have decided that we will stitch Shepherds Bush 'Victorian Sampler' together this year. Here is our progress so far, I think this will be fun to stitch and very pretty and days spent with Carol are always so enjoyable! :-)

I have not managed to get a lot of stitching done since I last posted and, once again, I have been mostly working on exchange pieces which I can't share yet. However, I have taken a photo to show my slow progress on BBD Garland Fair. At least it is coming along a bit - that over one (which I hate doing) seems to take forever! :-)
