This is a cross stitch I did a few years ago, it looked so much like my last rottie called Lucy. She was the best dog ive ever owned. Sadly had to have her put down due to a tumour in her leg.But while i was very sad about that, if I hadnt lost her I would never had the 2 dogs i have now.
Was up at the hospital on Fri for Stewarts dressing to be changed and its come on so well we got a new type of dressing, a sticky cling film thing, which I can do at home, so no more treks up there till he needs the light therapy.
Another member of staff at the shop where i work is leaving. I really liked her but her dad is moving into sheltered housing up in Elgin, 80mls north, so she is moving too. I hope we get someone nice to replace her.
Last week we laid tiles for my son and his girlfriend, on Wed we will do the same in the cloakroom. Lisas brother, George has moved in with them he seems really nice.
I ordered some stuffing online last week and when it came i got a shock, i must have not read the weight properly, the tiny package that came wouldnt stuff a small teddy bear !!So I went back online and paid attention this time, and next day a delivery man came lugging a huge box, that was more like it.
I have been making some more things and also made my own pattern for a halloween doll which turned out really nice. I have now finished the back of my sweater and am cracking on with the front, dont want winter to be over and not have it done. I also got some more wool so i can start another one right away.
Has anyone worked with that paper you can sew on then dissovle it? Ive gone and bought some as i wanted to make a spiders web but so far Im not sure just how to go about it so if anyone is reading this and knows what to do please share with me.
Later....x
