Progress

In spite of a very busy couple of weeks that comes along with Remembrance day I did manage to get some time for crochet and stitching in between stints at Poppy shop, attending coffee mornings and duties on Remembrance Sunday.
It's nice when I have a little time to grab my crochet and hook up a row, or even part of a row. Just a few more rows on my blanket and I'll be ready to do an edge treatment.
My secret cross stitch is also progressing, slowly. Luckily the upper half of the chart is not as densely stitched as the lower half. So should come together much quicker.
The star of the show has finally arrived. The recipient is a sucker for little black kitty cats!

I have a date with a bunch of Royal Marines today! We met up with them after the ceremony on Sunday and chatted with them about the British Legion branch here in Ramsey and the Royal Navy Association branch here in town. They were very keen....
I'm off to meet them today to introduce them to the Chairman and the secretary of the Royal Navy Association.  That should be fun. Still time for some stitching before I leave though.
