DH and I started the evening together in front of the tv watching a show that we had recorded on BBC First...The Royal Bodyguard. We had both been looking forward to it as it starred David Jason. So we settled down to watch...and I was crocheting donated squares together for Knitting for Brisbane's Needy.
So then I moved on to some stitching...some more work on the hexie cushion...
Cheryll, over at Gone Stitchin' hosts FNwF, so to see what other participants worked on, here's the link to the post where we all signed up http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com.au/2015/01/fnwf.html . Why not visit all or some of these clever ladies. :-)
Remember the Giveaways start tomorrow to celebrate my 1000 'first run' blog posts...who'd have thought it? Lol

ReplyDeleteYou had a good night....great projects
ReplyDeletea productive night Maria. There isn't much worthwhile to watch on TV as it is without being misled like that - and pay tv too!!
ReplyDeleteYes it's a bit crook! Lovely work achieved despite the lack of good TV.
ReplyDeleteIt awful when you are looking forward to a nice show and its rubbish.....
ReplyDeleteYou did manage to join lots of squares and work on those pretty hexies...
WOW! A 1000 posts that's amazing. Congratulations Maria..
I remember "The Royal Bodyguard". I was so upset for David Jason as it made him look so bad. He survived it though and has appeared in other things since.
ReplyDeleteA good productive night Maria. It's so annoying getting all excited about a programme and it turns out to be not what you thought.
ReplyDeleteHow disappointing...never mind great work done anyway.
ReplyDeletelovely fabric and yarn
ReplyDeleteThank goodness you have something constructive to do while you were being punished by a horrid show!
ReplyDeleteNothing worse than sitting down to a lousy movie. But you achieved a lot of craft work instead.
ReplyDeleteNot to worry you still manage to join the rest of us for a fruitful night of sewing. Well done.
ReplyDeleteLots of lovely crocheting happening at your house, well done! :) Barb.
ReplyDeletewhat a bummer about the movie Maria... I thank goodness for dvd's!
ReplyDeleteIt is a shame about that TV program Maria - we put it on when it was first shown as anything with David Jason is usually very good but I dont think we watched even as much as you. Am liking your cushion hexies very much. xx
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice time post-Christmas/ New Year to do some crafting. Not the best time for quality tv watching though.
ReplyDeleteHa ha, at least it got you on to your chair and into production Maria ;D)
ReplyDeleteBeing such a terrible show probably meant you got more work done as you weren't looking at the screen as much!
