This months border

Hello my friends.
Yesterday I was at last able to do this months border
on `Tuesdays Mystery`
for The Country Yard.
I am late but happy as can use my cutting board again.:)


I love how these cotton reels came together.
I used design of `Serenity` from E book that I won
`Little Gems`.


Two different colour ways,
with challenge fabric threaded through.


My Lori Holt books


Ready with a new design board to 
join in with others in this SAL.
I have been taking notes so hope to catch up soon.


Every day a few more chore are being able to be done by me.
Still needing pain relief at night and crutch at times during the day.
Time to go for now.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.

More Teddies and SAL

Hello my friends,
I`m pleased you have come for a visit with me.
I have had to go to Drs again for pain injection in my hip 
as bruising has gone to the bone,very painful.
Since that the use of the crutches  has still be needed but have had times
 when I can go with out for awhile.
Still on pain medication but not so much.:)


Blocks 3&4.
Dress up Ted `Flick` and Sling Shot Ted `Zane`.


`Flick` has found a lovely hat to go with her out fit.


A lovely evening bag 
with gold chain handle.


Little bird has come to join in with the fun.


`Zane` is looking to use his sling shot.
No wonder little bird has not turned up.


June`s SAL blocks complete.
I have applique colours to sort for next months part.


Thankyou for visiting with me today.
I have a few more projects to sort
 as have had to have on hold while recovering.
I have started again with those 
but thankful that I have been able to sit and stitch.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.

Time to move `Flag` on

Hello my friends.
Sylvia of
http://flickenstichlerei.blogspot.
is next in line 
for `Flag` 28th May post.
Sylvia I have sent you an email for your snail mail details,
so this can be sent to you.


`Christmas Bunting`
`H` for this month.
Lazy daisy  stitch, back stitch, straight stitch
and chain stitch used this time.


This why I am late with this post.
I was in  a New World Super market and slipped on a
bean that was on their shiny floor.
I  was taken to a medical centre A & E
by ambulance for treatment.
As I had landed on the side of my bottom  I was surprised
that I have a fine line break in my pelvis,
a damaged vertebrae in my back 
and and a cracked rib.
The medication is only just got on top of pain
with the help of a heat pack.
The crutch helps as well.
I am not to drive for 6 weeks :(


At least some of the day I can stitch :)
`Teddies at Play` 
block 2.
`School Girl Layne`.


Her teddy is so cute.
Thank you for visiting.
I am working the next teddy and applique of SAL.
I am looking forward to using my cutting board again
 as have projects to show.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.
