I've been debating subscribing for this online magazine and this month there is a special offer of 3 issues for US$3 which has made my mind up! The free sample looked good and for that price there is nothing to lose really. I was halfway through filling in the form when I saw the "Tell a Friend" space. Now, I know I first saw it on someone's blog but who's I do not remember! So the first person to tell me they have the link on their blog (and I will check :-)) will get their name put in that space and get a free month added to their subscription.
Stitching wise it's been Nimue all week, I love this design it's so cute and really quick! Daytime my project is the saggy old cloth cat Bagpuss for the large boy's class teacher. His Maths teacher is getting numbers on her sampler. I gave the large boy a piece of paper and asked to draw the numbers 0 - 9 and the symbols + - X / in a random fashion then I charted them. He will choose the colours too. I see a bright future ahead as a Mother-and-son designing duo!
A blog trying to focus on all the nice things in life, those moments when everything turns out right. Finding the perfect fabric for that chart you love, the ideal sampler quote, just the right picture in all the 1000s of magazines you own. Meeting people who share your interests and obsessions and totally understand why you NEED that chart when you already have enough to last until you're 104

The large boy loves the word thingies as well, he thinks people make them up themselves and they are real words!
