something to get stitching again

Starting

filling in

A chain stitch sampler (phone photos). Because I like chain stitch and I need something with which to warm up my fingers after a long holiday.

The girls are back at school and kinder, routines and timetables sorted, and today I have FOUR hours to myself. Pregnancy is going well; 25 weeks now, feeling as huge as a house, perhaps starting to waddle at times. Lots of kicking. Precious kicking.
