Well, I did come back from the Dales, just haven't felt like blogging for a bit. We had a really lovely week in Thwaite, the weather, although not always very warm, was glorious with lots of sunshine. We just pottered around all our favourite places, eating too much as usual. I'm now counting down to our next visit there in October. While we were in the Dales we met up with Clare one morning and exchanged the biscornus that we'd made in a private exchange. The top photo is the one that I stitched for Clare, and the second photo is the beautiful biscornu that Clare stitched for me. Thank you so much Clare and also for the lovely extras that you so kindly added. (As always all photos are clickable for a better view.)

Although I took some stitching away with me, I didn't stitch one single stitch! However, before I went I did stitch LHN's Ladybug Ladybug. Another really relaxing design to stitch, I do seem to be having a LHN stitching bonanza at the moment.

Thanks for all your lovely comments on my last posts, I'm sorry I've not been returning the favour, hopefully that will be rectified soon.
