This is Jeremy Bear and I stitched him last week for a quilt that is being made by a friend on the Aion BB and her Mum. It's for a very poorly baby boy who has feeding problems, which have now been diagnosed after quite a lot of tests. He will have to be in hospital though for another two to six months.
Other stitching news, well I didn't stitch on Chocolate Shoppe last week as I was busy with Jeremy, but I did some the week before, although I know I haven't yet shown you a picture. I'll update with that one and this weeks work later in the week. As I'm in need of a bit of cheering up today I'm treating myself to a new start. I'm going to stitch my first Chatelaine design, the Lavender Garden Mandala from issue 9 of the Gift of Stitching. I've been promising myself that I'd start this for months now, and it's been kitted up for some weeks, although I've changed the fabric that I was going to use. I'm now going to use Silkweavers Reflections in 28ct Lugana, "Blue Diamonds", a lovely sparkly pale blue colour.
I'd just like to thank you those of you who read my blog , and especially those of you who leave comments, they are very much appreciated. It's lovely to see some new names too, and I really enjoy taking a look at all your blogs.
