Busy Busy Busy

Hello everyone!

This post was planned for the weekend but somehow we are on Wednesday already.

But I have lots of news to share!

First up, here is my (late) TUSAL.

My jar is packed with threads now, perhaps next year I need to find a larger jar so I don't have to "smush" them down so much.

I had lots of nice stitchy mail this past week too. First my prize from Craftycat's giveaway arrived. The chart is lovely, as is the fabric. Never stitched on such small count but it will be something fun to try :)

I already have plans for the Christmas charms, watch this space :D

Next a travelling pattern arrived from Lanybleu Stitches. This one has visited stitchers all over the globe! Of course I will keep the tradition going once I finish it, so keep an eye out for a post if you are wanting this :)

~ Thank You So Much Ladies ~

I also got tickets for the Harrogate Knitting and Stitching show, I have never been before so I am looking forward to it. Two friends are also coming along too, although they will be looking more at the knitting side of things. We plan to take a trip to Betty's Tea Room after as well. It should be a great day.

I took part in an event on Facebook again, this time it was a surprise RAK event to celebrate the groups first birthday, I had a very generous partner who got me vouchers for both my choices! Once I have received the goodies in the mail I will share :) If you read this thank you so much!

I have also signed up to Serendipitous Stitching's Halloween blog hop. It is a great way to find new blogs and lovely to see all the stitching, you can still join in too!

I have been working away on some stitching too, but it is so close to been finished I'm not going to share a photo just yet :)

Part two of the Holly and Hearts Mystery SAL should be on its way to me soon too!

I think that is everything I had to report, Friday is my brothers wedding! I can't believe how fast that has come around, I can finally give my present to them which I finished back in August (Finished picture here).

I'm sure I will be back posting again at the weekend with photos from the wedding to share :)

Until then, have a great week!

Holly & Hearts Part One - Finished!

Good evening everyone

I hope you are all ok, I would just like to say first thank you for all your supportive messages on my last post. It has been a busy week so I haven't had the opportunity to thank each comment personally but they are appreciated.

We made the journey to Scotland Thursday night and the funeral was on Friday, there were lots of tears at the service but afterwards the family stayed together and shared stories from their childhood about her and her siblings, lots of laughs which is what she would have wanted. We made the journey back yesterday and arrived home in the evening, both very tired.

Today was the first chance I had to stitch but luckily I managed to finish part one of the SAL. Hooray!

Part one - Done!

So now it will go away until part two arrives, which means I can work on something else in the mean time, at the moment I'm not sure what that will be, but I'm sure I will be back soon with another update for you!

Tiki and Linda I will get your prizes in the mail this week, Pull the other Thread I don't have your address yet, so if you get it emailed to me then I will pop yours in the post as well.

Hope you all have a great week ahead
