The sickness lingers ...

I'm still sick. I have either had a reaction to the antibiotics or the stomach bug that Joe (the baby) had and spent yesterday vomiting and came up today in a horrible rash all over my legs. I have a choice now - I can stop the antibiotics, which is what the dr. recommends as I've had this reaction, but then the pneumonia will probably not go, or I can carry on taking them and hope I don't have a more strenuous reaction.

Argh!

We're due in London on Friday and I had so many plans, which are now probably going to be confined to staying in the hotel room!

With regard to the metal finishing forms, take a look here at the Silver Needle website. You will need to scroll about halfway down the page.

They're really nice to use, but don't use the glue! I got myself in a terrible mess using them as per the instructions and when I tried the second time I did it differently by running a gathering stitch around each piece of fabric, pulling it tight to enclose the finishing form and then sewing the two sides together. I used a bit of padding as well.

If you want to look locally (inside Holland) these are available from The Borduurbrink and also from Annemiek's Shop, de Handwerk Boetiek.
