glad to hear herman is bounding back! you handled it brilliantly!
what is it they say?
"a way to a man's heart is through his stomach"? you took his mind of his eye by giving him a delicious meal"!! good thinking BatMan!!
today he will onto 'brighter things'... literally.
the sun is shining here this morning! it's a beautiful spring morning, (minus the frost)
the funeral yesterday went as well as can be expected, very emotional for all. we went back to her parents house for the Wake with home cooking & baking...
such a beautiful family, such a sad occasion. a very troubled lassie who is now at peace with her self and with her maker... go bless them all...
thank you all for your thoughts & prayers yesterday...

Now Dayle! you couldn't resist huh!?! tut tut!! lol...
well, it's looking seeeeewwww scrummy & gorgeous i could cry!!
i loooooooove the fabrics! and i'm desperately trying to visualise what you have in mind! it's looking better than anything i could have hoped for!! thank you!!!

i was up late last night until 2am, after the funeral i went to collect Rachael from the airport in the afternoon. she had been down to the south of England to watch her Fiance play hockey for the Royal Navy against the RAF & Army. they won!! wooohoooooo!! (Ben is the goalie)
Rachael had been complaining of a lot of discomfort in her lower abdominal area, so i ended up taking her to Hospital. hours later after monitoring and tests they were happy to send her home. thank goodness!! our 'wee baby' is good & strong, and happy to stay where she is hopefully for the next 12 weeks!! phew!!
it took until 2am and more hand stitching for me wind down after yesterday!!
what a day!! i don't wish to repeat that one again. plus i'm still battling with my cold which is heading down to my chest now :(

i'll run a nice hot bubble bath in a minute, then start cutting some more fabric for the middle part of my 'view'. then a lovely quiet day is in order with lots of lovely hand sewing!! (i hope!)

i have to say, i am really enjoying this needle turning!! it's a good while since i did hand sewing on this scale, and i had forgotten how therapeutic is is!!
it's just what i need right now!!

have a lovely day ladies!! love jacquie xxxxx
