Hi Ladies, hope you all received the spread sheet OK

I have received an email from Patricia. Unfortunately she had a nasty fall in church a couple of weeks ago spent 5 days in hospital and has had very bad concussion. I am sure we would all like to wish her a speedy recovery.

Hi Jo and Jill. glad to hear that your craft groups were a success Jill, I bet you were a bit nervous.

Haven't done much craft work over the weekend after spending all day Friday doing a scrap book page. and making a christening card.

Did go to the range in Cheltenham yesterday where theys ell Papermania stuff. bought a new scrap book and some page inserts plus a couple of small reel of ribbon and a small pack of brads, not a lot really, just replacing stuff.

I am just about to start sorting out photos for the small scraap book i want to do for our eldest Grandson's 21st birthday in july.

Jill lovely to hear your craft workshops went so well and they are coming back for more! Will certainly keep you busy. Hope the sheep are OK and have an easy delivery, with no bottle feeding required!

I am going to try and start the ATC swap again if anyone is interested.

Well lovely and sunny and warm here again today, but indoors watching C&C love the templates that are on at the moment (12-1pm) have resisted buying all weekend, but have just bought them all!!!!!
Also she was using twisted pyramid with flower fairies and they were lovely, but they will have to wait as just spent all my spare money. Will have to have a look around in case they are for sale anywhere else. Just love the flower fairies at the moment, have the normal decoupage but these looked so different. Cannot wait for hubby to get back to work and start earning some money again. Also so I can get back to making cards during the day really miss that.

Hope you all had a good weekend

Mary, sorry to read your sad news xx

I have managed to get on and think that as long as I don't save to faves and google the site I will be OK.
I would get the home page with a few blank spaces then it would just stick and the only way to get the page off would be when I close down.
I started my craft groups this week, crafters on Tuesday and beginners on Friday, and they both went very well. I decided to have two smaller classes of up to 6 so that I could use my craft room rather than decamp to the gite each week.
Feed back has been very good and they were all pleased with the cards they made including a 70 year old gent that comes to the beginners group.
We are waiting for lambs to start arriving but just have three females expecting this year and fingers crossed, no bottle feeding this year :))
Hope every one's keeping well

xx Jill

Sylvia, have heard from Jill and she is haveng problems getting on here again at the moment. Her first crafting group is today with a second for beginners on Friday.

Hi folks staying at daughters at the moment so access is limited as looking after the children and pets.
Hope you are all keeping well, Sylvia sorry to hear that your shoulder is playing up. Hopefully spring is on its way and things will start to feel a lot better.

Hi all,
Jill is already back from skiing and was going to start giving lessons on card making. Hallo Jill, can you hear me?
Ann, I know nothing about scrap booking at all and am not going to begin. My cupboards are bursting at the seams and I won't live long enough to use up all the bits and bibs I have. I also have lots of pieces of cross stitch work which I want to do/finish. Some already begun and some not.
I still have the muscle pains in my left shoulder/neck and cannot do much at all now.
The weather has been lovely today. Do you think Spring is now round the corner?
Have a nice evening Sylvia xxx

Does anybody else do scrap booking? i know Heather did but wondered if anyone else did. i want to hinge a section but not really sure how it is done/what to use for the hinge.

Hi Sylvia, I think Jill may be on holiday, was she going skiing again this year?

You put me to shame with all your cooking - and 8 shirts to iron, I am so pleased my OH does our ironing.

Been working on scrap book pages this weekend so cards have had a rest.
