Well it's been while since I posted last but as tends to happen, life got in the way a little! I'll not go into detail (mainly as it's boring) but things are now getting back on track.
I have managed to get a fair bit of stitching done though so at least I have some things to share with you!
In September it was our 1st wedding anniversary and I stitched a present for my husband that represented how I lucky I feel to have met such a wonderful man! It's a Design Works kit (designed by Joan Elliott) called Happiness Bears.
I've also joined in 2 different SAL's with 2 FaceBook groups. I apologise that neither of these have been pressed so they may look a little crumpled.
The first is An Important Flower - Alessandra Adelaide Needlework (AAN) Stitched on 28ct Deep Teal Jazlyn using Sulky Blendables thread in Baby Soft.
Next is a design by Love Thy Thread that was created specifically for this SAL called Halloween. I stitched on 18ct Aida in Moondust from Crafty Kitten using DMC threads.
I've joined the Lizzie*Kate Mystery SAL and I've made a start but not very much to show of that as yet and I'm still steadily working through the HAED BB SAL and I promise I'll take a picture next time I move my Q-Snaps!
Hope you are all doing well and I'll catch up on your blogs. I may not post comments on all of them but I do enjoy reading them!
Just as a final note, my thoughts go out to Pumpkin's (Cathey) friends and family, as she lost her fight with cancer. Her wonderful heart and spirit will be missed.
Congrats on the adorable finishes.

Congratulations on your 1st anniversary Angie and that is such a cute lil pressie for hubby! That was a very clever choice of fabric and thread to use on the AAN piece. I would never have envisioned those colour choices would work so well! Good job stunner! Halloween kitty looks great to on that fabby too.
