A new start

Hi everyone, sorry I've been away so long. I know some people have said they've missed me, so thank you for missing me! I've been really busy, and life just got in the way. I have been stitching, even if it's not anywhere near as much as usual. My pc time has been extremely limited, but hopefully it's coming back.
























I thought I'd show pictures of the Round Robin I joined a while back. It's organised by Colette, in one of the groups I belong. It's the first time I've joined a RR, there's six of us in it, and the others all joined before me. They're really nice people, so that's why I joined. We have all chosen a theme, and sent charts with the RR as it goes on it's travels. My dd chose my theme, and it's weight watchers. The charts are from a stitching magazine, I can't remember which at this moment in time. I've named them 'The Fat Girls', and you never know maybe I can lose some weight before they return! The posting date for the RR is the 10th of every month, so I said goodbye to mine, and received Essie's from Holland. Essies' theme is Christmas Cottages, and she has stitched a border, and we each get to stitch a cottage. Essie is going to make it into a Bell Pull on it's return. What a great idea, and I love Christmas designs, so couldn't wait to stitch on this when it arrived. I hope Essie loves it when it gets back to her. Next I'll be receiving Sarah's, but you'll have to wait and see what her theme is-just watch this space.




I've also had a couple of new starts, and something else which is a secret, but I'll post about them at another date. Hope you're all well, and see ya later.

I love the idea of the Weight Watchers RR. Hopefully we'll be seeing some WIP pics on other blogs. What magazine are you using? I'd be interested in picking up a copy.
