Maria Spence Update

It's been a while since I posted an update on Maria but I've been working on her when I get the chance and I've got another four motifs stitched.

Thank you for all the comments on Christmas Stitches and my photos of Rosie. They are all very much appreciated.

Feeding Ducks

Very near the top of Rosie's list of favourite things are ducks so we went to are local RSBP reserve Fairburn Ings today to feed the ducks (and swans, geese, coots etc)

Here she is watching the swans:

I love her expression in this shot:

A spot of Baking

Rosie and I baked some biscuits this morning. Leastwise I baked and she decorated the kitchen with pasta

And the biscuits - Oaty Vanilla biscuits from Jane Brocket's The Gentle Art of Domesticity

Christmas Stitches Finished

The Drawn Thread - Christmas Stitches
stitched on Lakeside Linens Vintage Mocha using the recommended threads.

Thank you for all the comments on the photo of Rosie and I. It was taken by my husband and was the only one of around a dozen pictures where we were both looking at the camera LOL
