I spent a wonderful afternoon today, visiting Nicki. We caught up with each other and I got to check out all her lovely recent exchanges - I've even seen one that hasn't been posted yet - and we chatted about stash and stitching and cats and all those sorts of things.
Then we settled in to stitch. I worked on my baby gift - and made a nice amount of progress too - while Nicki started on a baby blanket. Nicki's husband settled down at the table behind us painting model soldiers (they are so tiny, I don't know how he has the patience, but I was very impressed). We put an episode of the Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes on the TV and did crafty things for a very companionable few hours before I needed to leave to pick Marcus up from daycare.
It was fantastic, and we have good intentions to do it again. I hope we do, as it was a great way to spend the afternoon.

It was lovely wasn't it? I really enjoyed it - thanks for coming over :) It was so good to have encouragement to start that blanket too. I kept going and the apple and mouse on top are tacked, and about half the female mouse too. Yay! :)
