I had such a good laugh yesterday reading your comments about what my hoop might say. Really, you've all given me inspiration for dozens more hoops. Thank you.
But without further ado, this is what the latest hoop said.
And it has been gifted already. Ange - Heart of Charnwood - came and spent the day at my house today. It was brilliant. We talked. We sewed. We talked. We ate. We talked. We discussed fabric. We talked. (You get the idea.) Ange is absolutely lovely. Can't wait to get together with her again. A real live sewing buddy. Yay! Ange will be moving house soon and is to have a sewing room of her own. Every sewing room should have at least one hoop, shouldn't it?
Ange brought these baking books for
A huge thank you to Ange for coming for the day. It has been an excellent day. I hope you all had an excellent day too.

I guess that "not taking a hatchet to my family" was the closest suggestion! LOL
Oh how lovely to spend the day with Ange - yea for the Midlanders!
love it loved all the comments .glad you had a nice day and lots of baking to look forward to !!
Thx for my fab hoop, it's already got pride of place in my "old" sewing space! It really was a lovely day, we didn't exactly run out of conversation on our first date, nearly 5 hours just flew by. And thx for the lovely lunch, I felt thoroughly stuffed on the way home. Lets do it again soon. x
That is just how I feel some weeks!! Never get the medal, I have to settle for a glass of wine and a chocolate bar. Sarah
excellent quote!
Sounds like a fabulous day! Love the hoop x
Thanks for the laugh this morning, Susan! Your hoops are a hoot.
You should eat more so you know what the fork is for :)
sounds like a great day!
Excellent hoop. Save me a rhubarb & custard one please.x
I wish I had a sewing buddy!
How lovely for you to have a real life sewing buddy! And your hoop is brilliant! Happy sewing!
Susan, you never disappoint - love your hoop! BTW, I made Nigella's chocolate fudge cake today; it's hubby's birthday but we won't sample cake until supper ... sure does looks and smell good. Thanks.
:0)
You didn't freak her out then - good to hear xxx
V funny. So glad you had a stitchy pal for the day!
I have actually stabbes someone with a fork. Admittedly I was three and it was my little brother. I've never lived it down. He'd howl with laughter if he saw this.
Perfect day! Glad you both had fun! Great hoop, still think you deserve a medal ... For being you!
I knew the potential for mortally wounding someone would figure in that quote somewhere...
Great hoop, sounds like a perfect day.
Sounds like a great day :-)
Sounds like you had a fabulous day
A 'sewing friend'. . . . .such a lovely thing.
Brilliant hoop! Those were my sentiments today after 3 hours with a boiler engineer! Love the sound of rhubarb muffins! LOVE rhubarb! If I ask her nicely, do you think Em would send a few down for me on 2/3? Jxo
Sounds like a very nice way to spend the day - love the hoop!!
So it was a violence-related one - all your commenters were on the right track! Fab hoop. Is the biscuit book good! I've been thinking of getting one in the hope of mastering iced biscuits - my icing consistency is v v hit and miss.
Sounds like you had a great time! Tangy rhubarb muffins I am in!
How nice to have a sewing buddy. So glad you had a lovely day.
Love the quote, but I think Shay's hatchet would have been more impressive, lol.
Your hoop is a scream! I'm so jealous that you and Ange got together, it must've been riotous!
Ha, that is a good one! And probably true for many of us:) Sounds like you had a fun day!
Sounds like a fun time and a great hoop.
Sounds like the perfect day! How lovely to have a new 'real life' quilting buddy! I have Baking Magic and the butter biscuits are divine, and I love the 'traybake cupcakes' for a really quick but home made cake option :-)
I'm remembering Muttley asking Dick Dastardly for a medal at the end of each episode! Hope you get yours and you fall into raptures like him!
Great to have a local sew buddy!
