Whilst Iris Naps: February 2013
http://whilstirisnaps.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 27 February 2013. Wow - Two Posts in One Month (and the shortest month at that! Looking through the cross-stitch album on my ipad I noticed a couple of finishes that I hadn't yet posted about. Below is an ornie that I completed back in October for an annual Breast Cancer Research. Auction that my sister hosts. I adapted a freebie that I've stitched many times. Gingerbread Freebie found here. Apparently it sold for a good price, so perhaps next year I will stitch a few more! I intended to post ...

Whilst Iris Naps: November 2013
http://whilstirisnaps.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 20 November 2013. I am thrilled to announce the arrival of our beautiful daughter - Ivy Hillery - born November 16th, weighing 8lb 11oz. She is absolutely adorable and we have fallen head over heels once again. :0). Luckily, it was a very quick labour, 1 hr 11 minutes. 2nd stage was only 4 minutes.she definitely didn't hang around! Lol I didn't get the Halloween baby that I'd hoped for, but my Little Miss Ivy was worth the wait. Sunday, 10 November 2013. I'm 4 days overdue and beginning to thi...

Whilst Iris Naps: The Baby Boom Continues...
http://whilstirisnaps.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-baby-boom-continues.html
Monday, 11 August 2014. The Baby Boom Continues. Not one but TWO more babies born since my last post! My BF and a neighbour had a girl and boy respectively. In my last post I shared a photo of a felt tortoise that Iris received for her birthday. I liked it so much I decided to have a go at making one each for the newborns. I'm thrilled with how they turned out. :0) So easy and inexpensive to make. Such a lovely choice. Blog I can reveal all on Sept 1st. :0). 11 August 2014 at 16:35. Very cute baby gifts!

Whilst Iris Naps: Christening Gift
http://whilstirisnaps.blogspot.com/2014/07/christening-gift.html
Wednesday, 30 July 2014. Thank you all for your kind advice regarding my invisible snowman! I will try outlining it with a light grey to see how it looks. I will certainly be re-stitching the design onto a darker fabric though - it's such a lovely design. :0). Apologies for the 'short but sweet' post this evening. Not a lot of stitching gets done during the children's summer holiday! 30 July 2014 at 14:51. 30 July 2014 at 16:00. Oh, that is adorable, Christina! 30 July 2014 at 21:08. 30 July 2014 at 23:51.

Saturday, 28 June 2014. Summer Exchange And More Snowmen. Hello, does anybody out there remember me? 0) My goodness, where did the last five months go? Anyway, without further ado, here is what I've been up to. I participated in the latest 'Stitch, Create, Exchange' Summer Exchange. I received a fabulous parcel from Marcy. Big thanks to Marcy for putting such thought into the exchange. My snowman theme for 2014 continues with a couple more finishes. The ornament below was from a Ewe and Eye chart tha...

Saturday, 5 January 2013. First Post of 2013 (The titles will hopefully become more creative.). Wow, did I really not post AT ALL in December - my favourite month of the year? Unfortunately I succumbed to a terrible chest infection in the middle of the month and it practically ruined Christmas for me. :0( It lingers still, but I am at last on the mend so I won't dwell on it too much. Blog I love triangular finishes but I think I age a few years each time I complete one! How cool is that? Lol The stitched...

Saturday, 29 June 2013. 0) I love all of the organza pouches that she used to package up all of the goodies, I will definitely be re-using those. And the fantastic Home Sweet Home sign now has pride of place in our new extension. Thank you so much Kay, I love everything that you sent. My parcel had to travel all the way to Debbie. Debbie emailed to let me know how thrilled she was with the exchange. Baby news is that we had our 20 week scan last week. Yikes, half-way! The body part on the left of the sca...
