About Nikki

A crafter of many years, now using this blog to share my ongoing projects and tips for others to enjoy. I mainly concentrate now on Heaven and Earth cross stitch designs - with several projects on the go at any one time. Also often found knitting shawls and socks, papercrafting. Easily distracted by new cross stitch patterns. Slave to a tyrannical black n white cat called Yuen.

Back To Whispers

Whispers 30th March 2014

I was planning to stitch a little bit of something else before I went back to Whispers, I really wasn’t sure about jumping from one big piece straight to another.  In the end once I’d put it back onto the […]

A Little Surprise

Computer Catastrophes 15th March 2014

I didn’t expect to be posting this so soon but here we are. It’s finished! Last weekend I had a couple of extra days off work and managed to finish page 29 in four days.  I decided that rather than […]

Marching on

Computer Catastrophes 7th March

At the beginning of the year I decided that I really wanted to get Computer Catastrophes finished in 2014.  I had wanted to finish it in 2013 but finishing up Lost In You set me behind for the year and […]

Just A Quick One

Computer Catastrophes 23rd February

Page 27 of Computer Catastrophes is finished.  Actually I finished it late on Sunday night and then was too tired yesterday to sort out the picture. Three pages left to stitch.  I’ll probably go straight on with page 28 now, […]

Getting There … Slowly

Computer Catastrophes 15th Feb

A slow page on Computer Catastrophes but I have been busy with other things eating into my stitching time.  But I’m still making good progress though.  Page 26 is now finished on Computer Catastrophes. I’m just about resisting the urge […]

Speeding Along Now

Computer Catastrophes 2nd February

I hoped that the partial pages wouldn’t take me too long and the first one was really quick.  I actually finished it on Sunday night but I’ve been a bit of a slow coach getting the picture taken and uploaded. […]

It was a fairly productive weekend even though I was catching up on a lack of stitching time during the week.  I have no idea where time goes during the evenings although for two of those I’m knitting rather than […]

A Milestone

Computer Catastrophes 14th Jan

Sometimes the easiest way to manage big sewing projects is to break it down into smaller goals.  I celebrate first page finished, first row finished, halfway point, last full sized page and finally finished.  For the biggest projects I’ll add […]

Happy New Year

Computer Catastrophes 1st Jan 2014

2014 is finally with us and I should really do a round up of stitching from 2013.  2013 was a year of progress for my stitching, I reached the halfway point with Whispers, a few pages on Eternal Promise and […]
