Well done to Kristi…….

I received an email from Kristi…no blog…..asking about the hexi runner I did a few weeks back…..she had some leftover hexies and wanted to use them up….

Kristi very kindly sent a photo of her gorgeous completed runner to me…

Don’t you agree….Kristi has done a fantastic job……I just had to share a photo with you….(I must admit it makes me feel very proud)….

Thankyou Kristi, you should be chuffed, your runner looks amazing……..

Happy Thursday, take care, keep safe
