Turtle Trot - March Report

Good evening!

It's the 10th of March already, meaning it is time for the monthly Turtle Trot report, hosted by Bap Attack! Never heard of it? Well just click this link and all shall be revealed, you can join in too!

Not the best month I have to say, I'm not losing my bug for stitching I just don't seem to have time. This push to lose weight is really eating in to my spare time, as by the time I have gone for a run and cooked our dinner it is almost eight or nine pm once I finally get chance to sit down! But I know it will be worth it in the end. I will just have to make up for my stitching then :) hehe.

This month I worked on only two of the ten projects, and those two didn't really have that much progress either! How well...every stitch counts right?!

First, is Twilight Magic. Here is how it looked in my last report...


And here it is now!


Then I worked some more on Row of Cats, here is the before shot...


and how it looks now.


I think once I get the back stitch done on this second moggy I will feel like I have achieved more on this, so that will be my aim this week to get that done.

Until next month!

We have a (late!) Winner...!

Hello!

I hope you are all well? I know I must say it nearly every week but where does the time go?! I have done barely 50 stitches this week and I have no idea what I did with the rest of the time!

So, we finally have a winner for my giveaway, I got myself organised and listed all the names of the entries - including the bonus entries for people who shared about the giveaway there was over 80 of you who entered, I just wish I could send you all a little something :)

So I went to good old trusty random.org to pick a winner, the number was 24!


So by checking my list we can see the winner is...



Congratulations sweetie! I will send you an email so I can get your mailing details so I can get this in the post to you :)

As for me, the slimming is still going great, I lost 4 1/2 lbs this week! I have no idea how that happened, I was expecting one or two! Making my total since Slimming World 1 stone 5lbs and my grand total 2 stone 4lbs :) I'm very happy! But I am going to have to go buy some new jeans soon, I was walking round yesterday shopping and had to keep pulling them up! Hehehe!

I will be back tomorrow as it is Turtle Trot day, I won't have a whole lot to show but I'm going to spend some time now putting a few stitches in, so fingers crossed :)
