Shores block 1

Here's the first block of Shores all finished - such a fun stitch! Does anyone else think those white blobs look like little leaping lambs? I'm not sure what they are but I just can't get the idea of lambs out of my head!


I can't be bothered to iron today so it's a little creased, but it is a scan rather than a photo so you get a much better idea of the proper colours.

Thanks Sally for pointing out the DMC 860 mistake on the page - I was a bit puzzled as to why I didn't seem to even have a floss bag for 860. It should be 830 if anyone else is using DMC.

Thanks too for all the sympathy about my aches and pains. My neck is still sore but much, much better. I think it must have been caused by stitching at an awkward angle with Lulu on my lap, so I have been stitching less, which is a bit of a shame. I also had to exercise a bit less too, so no weight loss this week. I have lost 10lbs in total so far though!
