Back to school!


The girls went back to school today, and it seemed really quiet without them (they are making up for it now of course).

It was Naomi's first day of secondary school. Where did my baby go????

Note the difference in colour between the nice new school sweatshirt and the one thats been washed a few times. You'd think with what they charged for them they'd wash a bit better than that.

I got stash post today. As soon as Naomi got her eye on this she wanted me to stitch it for her. Well, the chart is horrible! Not only is it in colour, which I hate, but it is a HUGE single sheet (A2) folded in four. I think I'm going to isolate the Kitty motif, stitch it up as an ornie, and forget the rest.

Lovely pic of your DD's - hope they're enjoying the first term back. :0)
Cute design but I would hate to have to work it from a colour chart too. Hope you manage to salvage something from it.

Can you sue these companies for discrimination against colour blind people lol. All in all not might sort of thing and I too would isolate the kitty and make a pretty ornament.

The girls are really growing up now Christine.
