Royal Artillery

I've now finished my latest cross stitch project. It is the Royal Artillery emblem. My grandad served with them during WW2. It was a labour of love but rather hard going. I found using metallic threads quite difficult but it has been very much worth it in the end. I will get a photo taken and posted as soon as. I just need to gently wash it and dry it first though.
I have now moved onto the next piece of cross stitch that needs finishing. It's of some poppies, which I absolutely love. The kit I beleive is from Heritage stitchcrafts.
The weather is awful at the moment, it sounds like a gale ripping round my apartment at the moment. Even poor KeishaBelle is rather reluctant to go out. And anyone who has ever met her will know this is very unusual. She loves being out. Even Spirit has been a bit reluctant to be out in it and she can hold her ground! 
I was very fortunate last winter when we had some appaling weather to be bought a beautiful pair of Emu boots. At christmas I was given another pair which I use as slippers they are so comfortable. And they keep my tootsies nice and toastie. Do check out Nature Shops website http://www.natureshop.com/ as they do some amazing products.
