#85 April YOTA Report

Well it is the first Saturday of April (can you believe it?!) so that means it is YOTA time! If you haven't heard of YOTA before then click here and all shall become clear :)

This month was a success! In case you missed it I had a finish on my first YOTA piece of the year! Hooray!

Tigger Bookmark - Done!
So, then came the decision on what to stitch next as part of the YOTA, well after much debate over two projects I decided on Thomas Kinkade - Stepping Stone Cottage.


Here is where I am the last time I stitched on this - last August! How terrible! This should also help me with one of my aims for 2013 as I want 50% done by the end of the year, not sure how likely that is but it is always good to have goals in life :)



So fingers crossed next report I will have made more progress to share with you.

Until next time!

      Thanks! It will certainly be a challenge...lots of french knots, fractional stitches, blending...this one could take a while!

    I love Tigger!!!! We sometimes call our Cockatoo "Tigger" Why? Because Tigger's bounce, and so does she, especially when there is music playing!

    Much luck with your HaED. I will be here to root you on every step of the way!
