I have been catching up with my stitching since coming back off holiday. I thought this area (the entwined hearts) would not take me so long as it is all xstitch but it has taken me 2 evenings!

As of 25/06/10.
I have had a lovely week in Cornwall. The weather was beautiful and sunny but not too hot. I was staying near Truro and got to visit The Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan which were superb, well worth a look, along with a few National Trust places. The cottage was very peaceful and relaxing ..... but it's back to reality now. :)
We visited Heligan a few years ago and thought the gardens were fabulous! Nice progress on AoH too.
ReplyDeleteYour DT piece is looking wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI saw a programme years ago on the restoration of the Lost Gardens of Heligan - fascinating. Now I need to see them for myself.
Have a lovely weekend
An Open Heart is coming along lovely Andrea!
ReplyDeleteI visited The Eden Project about 4 years ago - living in Plymouth I didn't have too far to travel. I bet I would notice quite a change when I go back!
Gorgeous stitching. I just love your blog....great picture, inspiration and ideas!!
