Well i posted my squares for the Fair and Square Exchange 3/4 weeks ago now. Unfortunately my partner for the exchange moved house and i didn't have her new address and she isnt having her mail redirected so i don't know if she'll ever get these. Very annoying indeed! So i thought i'd just post these pictures of what i stitched to prove that i did stitch them!! I read that my exchange partner liked houses and trees and samplers so found this chart, which i had to ammend to fit 50x50. It is a freebie from
Les Grilles de Maryse. I really enjoyed stitching this and might stitch it again sometime.
Ive made good progress on
Donna's RR this week! I know it's not due for posting until the 7th October but im keen to get it finished so that i can work on some other things without this being at the back on my mind.
Today is my mum and dad's anniversary and as i found out at dinner the other night that my Dad reads my blog i shall take this opportunity to say "Happy Anniversary to you both!"

It's a darn shame your fine work didn't reach it's destination. These pieces are very nice. Good thing you at least had a piccy.
Pretty squares, and the RR is looking good ;)
I sure hope she had her mail forwarded! Your squares are great :)
Maybe she will see this and contact you. The RR is looking better and better each time I see it :)
Happy Anniversary!! to your mum and dad.
I hope your squares make it to your partner. They're lovely. The RR is coming along nicely too.
That is annoying! Such lovely stitching! I need a progress picture of your Feather Fairy! Happy Anniversary to your Mum and Dad!
Beautiful squares, I hope they still find their way to the recipient! The RR looks pretty too.
I hope your square turns up at it's destination. It's so pretty.
Your squares are so pretty, I really hope your recipient gets them. Lovely work on the RR!
I do hope the piece you stitched get to the recipient somehow. RR's coming along swell :)
Very nice squares. I was in the craft shop (again) and they were selling discontinued flower threads for 20p each! Don't know if flower threads work for cross stitch, but I bought 6 skeins for myself!
Looks great Cheryl, hope she does receive them, you'd think she would have let you know? Oh well, it looks great anyway. RR is just fabulous! I can't wait to get it back to me!

Your F&S round 2 Squares are really nice!!! Too bad about all the mail issues that seem to be hitting at you lately, whats up with that?? :)
Happy Anniversary to your parents!!!
Love the Fair & Square blocks. I really hope they make it to her. The RR is coming along well too - so cute with that sheep!
I love your squares! And good for you for trying to get your RR done so early!
Oh, that is most unfortunate! Did you put your return address on? Hopefully, at the very least, it will be returned to you. Good luck!!
Shame your piece didnt get to her! All that work. Just one of those things. xx
I wish people in exchanges would make sure everyone in the exchange has their new address , the square you sent was great I hope it turns up
Hope your mom and dad had a lovely day on their Anniversary :)
So sorry your exchange partner changed adresses and know your lovely square is lost...it was very pretty!
Your squares are lovely! The RR looks great.
I hope they find there way to your partners house, it would be such a shame. All your hard work. They're lovely. You are making good progress on the rr too.

The fair and square pieces are lovely. Sorry that you posted them before I could post the new address...my move was not planed to happen it was an emergency to take care of my daughter after she was in a very serious car accident and broke her back. All I had time to do was pack and notify the bank and credit card company. So sorry you finished them so quickly and I didn't have access to get online with my new address until they were already sent.
Your F&S square is so beautiful. She left no forwarding address?? How can that be? I will pray that they do arrive safely!!
What a shame! Are you stitching new squrares or are you saying too bad so sad?
