Couch(ed) work so-fa
Feather stitch next, which we did at primary school as Dorset Feather Stitch, so no excuses for not getting that one right!
I wanted to ask you guys about your stash. A lot of mine got packed up and brought down here months ago to go into storage. Over the last couple of weeks Mum and I have been going through it, sorting out bits to go to a car boot sale. I have found the quantity of wool, paper, fabric and equipment which I have accumulated quite intimidating. Don't get me wrong it's not like boxes floor to ceiling or anything, but I really don't need to buy any supplies for decades probably. It's not an addiction exactly I just like fibre in the same way other women like shoes- although I like shoes in that way too! It's just got so that it's hard to see what I actually have and until I can get into a space where I can get organised I will probably end up buying things because I can't find the things I have already which would do the job just as well. Perhaps that's it- an extension of the whole moving frustration, I need to find a home for my stash?
So please, tell me do, how is your stash looking? A well organised library of materials, or a heaving monster of tangled threads and crumpled fabric? xxxx

Mine is an addiction, certifiable addition, not helped by spending any wages I earn when I babysit the wool shop in there. I have this mental block about being able being able to leave that shop without something!
Going to have to arrange to meet up before I get to your Wednesday lunch time session, looks like nearly December before I am around on a Wednesday. One thing on my list of things to do now I am 40 (once I have sold my house) is to do either a C &G in textiles or something more creative then NVQ's in care! S will need to pick your brains (if you don't mind)
Hope half term is going well and sorry for the essay x
