Gosh what a busy year 2013 is. I have just returned from a short trip to Germany. My grandfather is very ill. His cancer has spread and I have never felt so upset when I said good bye before.
I will not manage to go again before august 2014. So I'll just have to try to be positive.
My latest stitching finish is a Dimensions Kit. It is called Good Morning and is my favourite finish to date. It just looks so cheerful, so full of hope.
Here it is:
My next project is Feeding Time, a little girl feeding chickens. This reminds me of when my eldest daughter was small and fed my grandparents chickens.

A Hummel
Hello,
I have just finished a Hummel picture. I started it in between things and now I didn't want to start anything new. So I am finishing off some UFOs and WIPs. It's not that I haven't got anything new to start but this WIP-heap was getting out off control ;-)

I don't know if you aware of the awful floods in Germany. This flood is the worst ever with the biggest ever area effected. My dad was evacuated yesterday and went back to his mum for a few days. They will have lost an awful lot. People have died. As you might know Germany is ALWAYS on of the first country to help when other countries need help but the EU will not help the flood victims. Many of them will not have insurances because they can not get an insurance due to the flood in 2002......

King Henry
Hello,
I know you think I had given up and he joined some UFOs in my box. You were nearly right but after a big break Henry wanted to be finished and I REALLY enjoyed every stitch even though there are masses of French Knots. Now he is finished and waiting for a frame (I hope I'll find one).
I don't know if I have mentioned about the two Humphrey Corner test pieces I stitched for the designer? You can buy them now. So I think it's save to put them on my blog. Aren't they cute?
Now will someone tell my brother or cousins to have kids? I need someone to stitch the others for ;-)
Tobias LOVES Racoons. He has a fluffy one and gets really upset if he mislays it. So I have stitched him one

Neuschwanstein Castle
Hello!
Well, it appears you've guessed wrong: I have managed to finish Neuschwanstein Castle in time for my holiday with 2 days to spare. How am I going to use it???? As if I didn't know already ;-)
I took my two girls and a friend of my eldest to see Olly Murs in concert. To be honest I did not know who he is. But that's me. I like songs, books etc and haven't got a clue who they are by. Funny though I usually know who's designed my latest project. hehe
Anyway Olly Murs is FABULOUS! I think I'd be forgiven to say he's the new Robbie. Gosh so much energy and sooooo cheeky. To tell you the truth I wish I had the money to go and see them both in June but these tickets'd cost more than double than ours did. Okay you get two stars but I have not got the money.... If you don't know Olly, you will have heard most of his songs because I did. His support acts were great too. Expecially the Lovable Rogues. To be honest I would have been okay with having a whole show of them ;-) "OLLY, OLLY, OLLY, Oi, Oi, Oi" :-D

Model Stitching
Hiya,
I have finished stitching my model piece. Oh it was so much fun and only took 3 days. I would love to post a picture but I'm not sure if I'm allowed yet. You might have to wait until the kits are released. I have seen the catlogue and the new designs are so super duper cute. It is unbelievable. I want them ALL!!!!
Anyway as you know Humphrey was always my favourite but it's even better now. So I'll be sending it off today and get back to Neuschwanstein Castle. Will I finish it before I go to Germany???? What is your guess? ;-)
