#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!

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

  23. 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 :)
