IHSW Round up!

Good evening!

This weekend has been pretty productive, however I can't actually show you much of what I have been working on, not yet anyway!

First up I added the finish finish to my small for the monthly Small Sal hosted by Stitching Lotus, so now that is all ready and waiting for the check in post on Wednesday.

After that I finished stitching and added the finish to an exchange piece, and as I know the recipient reads this blog I can't show you that either!

Finally, something I can show you (hooray!) I continued to work on Row of Cats, I am really enjoying working on this project, and the current cat I am stitching is stitched with Lana thread so once she is finished she will look all fluffy :)


I also added two balls of wool, which at the moment don't look like much as they need the back stitch adding.

In other news I lost another 1lb this week making my total 13lbs since joining Slimming World and 26lbs overall, so I just need to shift two more lbs to get my 1 and 2 stone!

I will be back this week for my Small Sal post, Stitch from Stash and then Saturday is 1st of March (can you believe it?!) So that means both YOTA and TUSAL time again.

Also on Saturday I am going to see Michael Bublé with some friends, so I am looking forward to that too :)

Finally, if you haven't already don't forget to enter my Giveaway which you can find here, or click the logo below.

200 Follower Giveaway!

Well it has been a long time coming, but it is finally here! My 200 follower giveaway! Hooray!


I hope you like what I have to offer...


In here we have the The Ultimate Forest Friends Cross Stitch Collection! This is a book with 55 charts for you to stitch! Designers include Joan Elliott, Anchor, Maria Diaz and many many more! It is a lovely book with the charts split season by season so you have something to stitch all year long! I have this book myself, and many of them are on my "to stitch" list. I think the toadstool pincushion is probably my favourite though! :D

Along with this you will also be getting issue 266 of cross stitcher still in its seal and with the free gift, a small tin and some needles. For some reason I ended up with two of this issue so it may as well go to a loving home!

Also there are two needle minders from Lisa at No More Lost Needles, which you can find on Facebook, I know some of you have admired the ones which have been on my progress pictures so now is your chance to get your own!


I thought these two seemed very appropriate for a lot of us! :D


Finally, there is a piece of Crafty Kitten Fabric included in the prize, this is Mermaid. I tried to get a good photo but you know how hard that is sometimes! The above photo shows the effect on the fabric great but the colour is off, it is closer to the blue you can see in the first photo!

So does this sound like a prize you might be interested in! If so, then it is really very simple;
  • Be or become a follower of my blog
  • Leave a comment on this post only!
Simple as that!

If you would like an extra entry then feel free to place a link or post about the giveaway on your own blog. You can also copy and paste this html code which will place the giveaway button on your blog and send your readers directly to this post!
