Hi Sue,
Are you ready for Christmas?
You have 3 calendars for your children?
I guess these things remind you of your own happy Christmases . I should try to do this for my husband's grandchildren. Michiko
Japanese Embroidery Cross stitch and when I can I read and love watching films. Most of my friends think I am mad as I do a lot and if you think I do a lot of stitching you should look at the sport I support http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2571543572133086249
its larger in the UK but the only clip I could find enjoy
Where did you learn your textle skills?
Started stitching with my granny found Japanese Embrodiery in 2000 started learning in 2004 and learning in Bournemouth Dorset
Hi Sue,
good to hear from you! I finished my embroidery. Tomorrow I will take pictures and take it of the frame. I will put a picture on the site, so you can give your comment.
I found it a bit scary to take it of the frame, do all the things before. I hope it will work out well.
How are your camelia's going?
It was lovely for you and carol Ann to come its great to see the nest phases and to find a fellow stricktly fan, well thanks for the invite it will be great to stay in contect, your nearly part of my family living in Romsey!!
Hello Sue, Very pleased to meet the 'gang' although some missing faces, hopefully next March. VF finished all but three gold petals to go.
I'm still on the 'royal visit' now at my daughter's in Sandhurst until Wednesday then home. Not so sure about Karahana, keeping the threads close together is not easy. Catch you later.
Hi Sue, lovely to hear from you. I went home safely together with my work. So glad nothing went out bad with the frame. How was your weekend with your family? I hope you had a very nice party.
When my Hanazume will be finished ( I did some stitching yesterday ), I will send you a picture.

No Sue I will look at the group now.
I am trying to make room for the frame stand and then can start stitching again. Patchwork has to go. I have found lots of things I had forgotton about. Embroidery patterns and scissors. More hours in the day please.
Speak to you soon and maybe put some pictures on the web.
Hi Sue
Thanks for telling me about stitchin fingers. Glad Anna got her frame home safe. Love the pictures of the Japanese embroidery. The Iris from the Bouquet of flowers looks fabulous. Must finish mine.
Hello Sue.
I just recived in Holland, and I'm checking the mail. Nice to see you here on the internet.
My work has survived the journey well, and I have showed it my son and he things its beautiful. I'm very glad to be back home, but I have realy enjoyed my week in Bournmouth.
Hi Sue. Sounds like you had a lovely time in Bo'mo. Can't wait to see your Camilias. After your trials and tribulations with Karahana I am so pleased that you are enjoying this piece more.
I spent HOURS threading beads last night. The things you get me into!
Thanks for the call Sue, will be in BOH shortly, coming South on th 23rd this month.
Starting Karahana then. VF I'm not so happy with, the gold leaves have given me some thought so I put it away for the time being but I'll bring it along.
In the meantime I started 'Spring View' as a break from the more serious stuff ( I thought!!!) It's from an old journal thought it would make a practice piece, not sure if it will be finished but will bring it along as well. Best wishes till then
