busy busy busy

Gosh i havent updated for a while had a rather busy time last week. my o/h's mum came to visit for a few days and was brought lots of stash mainly cross stitch and some card things heres the pictures, it covered the majority of my rug lol.

I am one very lucky lady :) which means i should stop buying anything from ebay but unfortunately it has become a little habit lol. not had much time to stitch whilst she was here but was able to complete a housewarming present for one of my best friends who loves cats and even though i bought it for myself i decided to give it to her seen as i have loads to be getting on with.

 My o/h created the mount using card stock that i had and i think it gives it a different effect than with a plain mount.

Right best be off i am currently doing a free kit of a chinese doll and thinking of creating more with different colours, shall post once the first one is done.
Bye for now :)
