I did a little bit of work on Winter Wonderland over the weekend, but mainly worked on making some spangles for my new travel lace bobbins. I spent a rather large amount of money on beads in the Hobbycraft shop (oops!) but I think the spangles turned out rather well. The spangles are there to weigh down the bobbins so that the threads have an even tension throughout the lace. I'm guessing that my sudden urge to start playing around with my lace stuff means that a lace project will be on its' way soon! I think I'll do a honeycomb bookmark if it fits onto my travel pillow.

These are beautiful, and I love the Winter Wonderland stitch, looks really good. I'm doing winter stitching too (although at a very slow pace!) for my Christmas cards, I've done three so far this year. I'm struggling to find time to stitch but you are inspiring me to try to make time, thank you!
Hi Jo. Thanks for your lovely comments (and apologies for replying so late!). I'm pleased that you're managing to get some Christmas stitching done - one of the reasons I started the blog was to keep myself motivated! Good luck with finding time to stitch!
