Here's my progress on Barnabee last Sunday. This week has been so busy, and so tiring that I've not had time to blog. On Monday my mil was rushed in to hospital, so Monday night was spent there. Mil is fine now, well as well as she can be. (She has dementia, and is totally dependent and unable to converse). Tuesday, I was too tired to stitch and went to bed early, only to be woken up at 1am by an earthquake. I couldn't get back to sleep, so ended up staying up until nearly 3am, and then back to bed. This was the first time I've ever experienced a quake in the UK. Many years ago I did experience a tremor whilst holidaying on the Greek Island of Rhodes, but it wasn't as bad as this one. And the rest of the week was busy too, with my car needing it's annual service and MOT. Thankfully it passed. I was a little disappointed though, as I had my eye on a new car on the forecourt of the garage I go to. Oh well!
Back to Barnabee, I was really pleased with last weeks progress and can't wait to pick it up again tonight.
Now, look at this lovely fob I received from Mylene. Mylene had pictured some fobs she stitched, on her blog, and decided to give them away, you just had to leave a comment. In the end Mylene decided she couldn't leave anyone out, and is stitching more for those that didn't win the drawing. I was lucky enough to win the first drawing, and this is what she sent me, it's gorgeous.
You might notice shadows on the picture, it's actually sunny here!

Barnabee looks great - can't wait to see this develop.
Lucky you, Mylene's fob is so pretty. :0)
I didn't sleep too great after the eqrthquake either. Glad you're OK & have no further problems.
(((((Hugs))))) Chris - my gran had Alzheimers, so have an idea of what it's like.
Your Barnabee is looking beautiful. I may take your idea of doing JN Sundays. I was in a SAL for BQ and everyone finished but me and one other stitcher, and I kind of lost interest in it. Maybe I can get it back in the rotation!
The fob is so pretty Mylene does lovely stitching and finishing.
OOOOOhhhhhhh Barnabee, I loved stitching this Chris and do miss it, so I shall enjoy watching yours grow.
Barnabee is looking great. And that is such a sweet fob from Mylene.
