It's back to work in the morning with a positive frame of mind. I have done quite a bit of embroidery these past few days and have enough photos to keep me going with posting for a while yet. I am concentrating on the financial benefits of employment, make the money work for me although spending money on flights kind of removes the money for promotion but hey, we all need a holiday sometime. So, I am off to Sweden for five days at easter, very much looking forward to it and hopefully I will have enough cash left to spend on the first part of my plan for world domination!
You can see here that I have also made progress of sorts with swaddling band two. This section is now backed, with hand stitched edges and I will post more on this midweek.
I thought I would share a little of the gifts I received at christmas with you. Just look at these gorgeous cloths, I spend hours merely looking at them. The white lace belonged to my Nanna, it's truly a treaure.

Your band for the swaddling band is perfect. I love the red running stitch on the linen!

i love how you stitched through the linen's open weave, everything looks wonderful including the new gifts. and those gaps are really big. don't you just love blogging?
The stitching is fabulous and you are such a tease about the grand master plan. Waiting with baited breath...
