#65 What a day! Plus IHSW

Phew! Finally made it home in one piece, as predicted the snow came and made the commute to work eventful! But luckily we were prepared, I didn't sleep well last night so in the early hours of the morning I watched it come down so when I woke up this morning it was no surprise.



Luckily work let us leave an hour early today to get home before the rush hour :)

Now, on to IHSW! This weekend I worked on Mystic Garden, I didn't really feel like I had done much but comparing it to last weeks photo then I am pretty happy - especially now I can see the beginnings of a tiger paw at the bottom :)

Before
After! 20-01-13
Other than that I did a little more on Mini The Black, but that is just even more 310 so would make a rather boring photo for you all!

I hope everyone has a great week and I look forward to seeing how everyone else got on!

Emma xo

p.s. I haven't forgotten about the giveaway - it will be launched very soon!

    Thinking about bad weather and having to drive in it can be quite stressful! I"ve gone through that a few times so far this season.

    You've made great progress.

    Lovely stitching - you're doing very well.

    The snow is very pretty, as long as you don't actually have to go out in it.

    Lovely progress on your HAED. Every little bit of stitching goes a long way with those. I see you have a Thomas Kinkade WIP too. I have had Everett's Cottage in my stash forever and I keep telling myself to get back to it, but I haven't found the motivation. :/

    That is a lot of snow you have there. You are more than welcome to my Miami sunshine. We haven't had much of a winter this year.

    Jen :)
